Ojung Group CEO Ji Dong Man, who left the prison for an external medical treatment
due to bad health was involved in
a car accident while traveling alone in a taxi last night
on the road near Jungbu Prison.
At first, I couldn't believe my eyes.
People were already saying he was living a luxurious life in prison like a king.
With all the controversy,
who would've thought Chairman Ji would be in that taxi?
Gosh, I'm getting so thirsty. I can drink this, right?
Gosh, but when I looked carefully, it really was Chairman Ji Dong Man.
After Ji's AWOL from the hospital was exposed by a citizen's report,
there is growing criticism for Ji Dong Man
as well as Jungbu Prison for their neglect in managing inmates.
Lee Han Sin.
All because of that damn Lee Han Sin!
How does this makes sense?
Isn't this the same as getting caught breaking out of prison?
Someone like Chairman Ji Dong Man released on parole?
That would be ridiculous!
Is prison a supermarket that he can come and go as he pleases?
[Parole Examiner Lee]
[Episode 10]
I know it was a last-minute report. Thank you.
I should be the one to thank you.
You gave me a hot story
that topped the searches as soon as it was published.
Could I count on you in the future as well?
Oh, yes, of course.
Okay.
[Jungjae Hospital, VIP - Patient: Choi Hwa Ran]
Why are you standing there like that?
Come here and sit down.
As you can tell,
I'm not okay.
Mr. Baek got injured pretty badly,
and my guys ended up like that, too.
And so
I think I'll need to stop.
I ended up like this because I was helping you.
Yes.
You should do that.
Is that all you've got to say?
Even from my perspective, I think that's best.
Okay.
Attorney Lee, you should stop, too.
No matter how hard you try to smash a rock with an egg,
you can't even make a dent.
So, stop. You'll get hurt.
Hearing that makes me want to smash it even more.
President Choi, thank you
for everything.
Attorney Lee!
Attorney Lee, what's with you!
Come on, you still don't know me like that?
I'm Choi Hwa Ran! Choi Hwa Ran!
Did you think I'd get scared from something like this?
"After his parole controversy, Ojung Group Chairman Ji Dong Man
in another controversy for going AWOL."
I saw how you made a dent in that rock!
You'll do something this fun without me?
Come here! Hurry up and come here. Take a seat.
Gosh, President Choi, you scared me!
You totally got me! Let's have you lie down.
- I succeeded.
- Please lie down.
No, hurry up and tell me.
Hurry up and tell me how we can bring down Ojung Group.
I need to show those bastards what kind of hell breaks loose when I unsheathe my claws.
You should recover first.
Gosh, you really are handsome when I look at you lying down.
At first, I couldn't believe my eyes.
Gosh, looking good. Looking good.
He looks good on camera.
In any case, I need to go visit President Choi in the hospital.
What's this?
I saw the news.
You look really good on camera.
But you look even better in person.
Should I call her or not? Should I call her?
Gosh, should I call her?
Should I call her?
Gosh, I'm sick of this. I'm back here again.
Gives me the chills.
- It's been a while.
- Yes, have you been well?
Yes. Bye now.
"It's not possible. There's no way."
Is that all you can say!
I'm sorry.
- Warden Bae.
- Y-Yes!
The only evidence is just a hastily taken video
Can't you just say I was on my way back to the prison?
B-But the public opinion is so heated
that no excuses are working.
Public opinion? You want me to rot in prison longer because of that?
What those ridiculous people say doesn't matter!
But even if we force the issue and put you on the parole list,
the parole examiners are influenced greatly by public opinion, so-
Enough with the "public opinion" talk!
But you took the taxi by yourself without a correction officer.
If this keeps coming up, people will say to lengthen your sentence-
Shit!
Because of that Lee Han Sin, damn it!
Can I leave now?
What do you think?
Both of you, get lost!
- Okay.
- Okay!
Why do you keep talking back to him?
He keeps yelling at us after he did wrong,
- so I got mad!
- Quietly, quietly.
Quietly, okay.
Geez
In any case, you're leaving as soon as you got here.
Yes. It's nice to leave right away.
It's so hard because he keeps calling for me over something I can't do anything about.
You can go now.
- I can go?
- Yeah.
- Fighting.
- Okay.
Director Son, I feel like I'll end up getting sick with anger like this.
I must repay them several-fold for what I received.
I'm talking about Cheon Su Beom.
Gosh, I love it!
This is such good news!
I'm so happy, guys!
Here, look.
His wrinkly face has gotten more crinkled.
Doesn't he look like a Hahoetal?
(Traditional Korean mask)
Unni, people are watching!
Who cares?
When will I ever get such a dopamine rush because of Ji Dong Man?
What if Chairman Ji gets mad and keeps blocking your path, Unni?
Yeah, Unni, he might try to hurt you.
Would he, really?
I found it.
I'm going to start fighting back now.
No, don't worry.
No matter what Ji Dong Man does from now on,
I won't just take it, okay?
Okay? Just enjoy it.
Hey, should I print this out?
[Sangbu Mall]
Attorney Lee.
Oh, Lieutenant.
Did we have an appointment?
Well, no, but
You brought a car, right?
Give me the keys.
A person has died.
So what?
Isn't it your job to clean up after stuff like these?
Please go home straight.
Just clean up this mess properly.
I'm leaving.
The more I look into them,
it becomes clearer why I should bring them down.
Ji Myeong Seop's face isn't in the video frame
and it doesn't show Son Eung Jun cleaning up,
but it's clear the two are accomplices.
If you reveal it hastily, they will weasel out of it like before.
However, Attorney, this is a video that shows a crime scene.
I have to see how Ojung Group falters
and what tricks they attempt to pull in the face of such evidence.
Do what you think is best.
I'll help you this time.
- No, don't lift the entire bed.
- Let's see.
Yes, that one- No,
- the other way, the other way. That's right.
- Oh, my God!
Oh, my, President Choi!
- Aigoo, President Choi, this is pretty serious.
- N-No.
You broke your leg and your neck, oh, no!
- They're not broken!
- Oh, no
These people! You act like I died or something!
Why are you crying and causing a scene? It's disturbing.
What are you guys doing?
- Pardon?
- Why are you guys holding hands
and holding each other and pulling apart?
I smell something fishy about you two.
It's probably just the smell of the disinfectant.
- Mr. Baek.
- Yes?
Shall we give them a beating?
These two are on a date, using the hospital visit as an excuse.
Wow, you're rubbing salt into my wounds when I'm injured.
- No, President Choi.
- It's not like that.
What do you mean it's not like that? It obviously is.
Never mind.
Where is Attorney Lee today?
Attorney Lee is a bit busy preparing for Chief Cheon Su Beom's parole release.
Cheon Su Beom?
Gosh, that Attorney Lee. I told him we should do this together.
He's the same as always.
W-What do you mean?
I'm saying he really doesn't listen.
Eun Ji, come over here.
Did you feed the kid before you came?
Oh, yes, I fed her.
Good.
By the way, you need to watch out for men.
Even if a guy looks warm, round, and easygoing,
there's a great chance that he's hiding claws underneath.
Especially watch out for guys close to you.
When they're nice to you as a friendly gesture
Mr. Hwang, I'm not talking about you.
- It's not about you.
- I thought you were referring to me.
["A prison escape attempt? Chairman Ji Dong Man goes AWOL from prison!"]
Correction Officer Lee
you really grabbed my dad by the collar and had him stay in prison.
What a mess is this!
Nobody takes any responsibility!
Attorney Seo, you're here.
Yes, I'm here.
How's my dad?
He seems very angry right now.
I'm sure he got furious.
But the crucial problem isn't his parole.
It's not? T-Then what is it?
Because of him, the company's image is ruined, and the stock prices have plummeted.
Is there a greater owner risk than this?
You're right.
- Attorney Seo.
- Yes?
Don't we need to do something about it?
Sure. I mean, you're right,
but it will be difficult to recover from this with just a minor solution.
A minor solution won't work. A minor solution won't do.
[Ojung Group CEO Ji Dong Man]
I think we'll need
a sensational and eye-popping special event.
Sensational and eye-popping special event?
In the end, Chairman Ji Dong Man's parole is stopped, right?
He probably can't even fathom it since the public's attention is on him.
Then, I'll need to shake up Ojung Group with that video.
And I'll need to trap Director Jeong Wook and
get Chief Cheon's parole approved.
But until then, I'll need to keep an eye on Jeoksong Prison.
I just heard this while eavesdropping.
It seems Chairman Ji will do something to Chief Cheon.
What do we do?
Ojung Group isn't giving us any time to have a drink in peace.
Hey, prop me up properly. Support me properly.
Aigoo, why would he come to such a place?
Prop me up properly.
Wait, President Choi.
Did you already get started?
I mean, it sucks enough that I'm injured!
Aren't you two enjoying yourselves too much?
I'm so tired. Give me a glass!
- Will you be all right?
- Of course, of course.
I don't know if you should drink.
Cheon Su Beom.
Inmate 2777.
Eliminate him properly.
President Choi, isn't this too much?
I'm fine!
This glass is too small.
Attorney Lee, give me that large cup.
Let's all drink with the large cup.
President Choi, I think I'll need to leave now.
Why?
Because of that guy, Cheon Su Beom?
It's a beautiful night, Hyungnim.
What's with you guys?
Did you eat?
Yes, we ate.
Okay. Aigoo, seriously.
Take it easy.
Guys,
you know that there's more of our gang here than your people, right?
I really like that model inmate hyungnim, 2777.
So, don't even touch the hair on my hyungnim until his parole release.
Can you guys do that?
Yes.
- Can you?
- Yes!
All right.
Then, as proof of your promise, let's take a photo together.
All right, gather together.
Hurry up and group up!
All right, smile big and make hearts!
Smile bigger!
All of the gang members in that prison?
I heard many Global Hammer Gang members are in Jeoksong Prison.
What can't you solve with money?
It just depends on how much.
I just got a message from them.
Here, I told them to send me a photo today.
Here.
Are you satisfied now?
I've taken over Jeoksong Prison,
so until Cheon Su Beom is released on parole,
nothing will happen to him.
You suffered damages from Ojung Group last time, and yet again-
Stop.
Attorney Lee, I'm Choi Hwa Ran.
My company won't falter over something like this.
So stop your useless worrying and accept my drink.
Wait, wait, this cup is too large.
Why are you acting like an amateur?
Then, here, Lieutenant An.
Will you be okay with that? You said you don't even eat with cops.
Gosh, Lieutenant An, you hold grudges, huh?
If you feel uncomfortable, just give it to me.
- No, it's okay.
- You don't, right?
All right.
Let's shout this with a loud voice and drink this night away!
All right! Let's defeat Ojung Group!
Come on! I couldn't sleep because I was so pissed after Ji Dong Man got me!
Attorney Lee, am I the only one getting angry? Am I the only one losing sleep?
Lieutenant An!
Am I Am I the only one who's losing sleep from anger?
Are you guys like this because you think the rock won't break if we smash it with an egg?
Attorney Lee, wake up! You already made a dent in it!
It's possible to smash the rock with an egg if we try hard!
We can do it! Let's try that again.
You guys, lift your cups, too. Hurry.
Your cups are too small. Change your cups!
All right, one more time.
- Let's defeat
- Let's defeat
- Ojung Group!
- Ojung Group!
That's right! Let's go! Let's do it!
We'll defeat them!
[Ojung]
Hello, welcome.
Gosh, the weather is nice.
Everything's prepared, right?
Yes, everything is being prepared spectacularly, as you've said.
All you need to do is head inside and check for yourself.
- Okay.
- Yes.
- Why are you so excited?
- No, no.
I raised my energy level so you would feel good.
What do you think?
Ojung Group Public Apology Press Conference.
I made it huge like this.
What do you think? It grabs your attention, doesn't it?
How many reporters are coming?
I sent the press release
to all three major broadcasting stations,
cable channels, news networks, and newspapers.
Since this involves Ojung Group, which is being talked about by everyone right now-
I asked how many reporters were coming.
The number of reporters well
Just turn on the video.
Okay. Maybe 300?
Hey, support team, could you turn on the video we made?
Cue!
[Ojung Group Public Apology Press Conference]
- A company of the people,
A company of the people,
- for the people,
- for the people,
- and by the people, Ojung Group.
- and by the people, Ojung Group. That's great.
- That's nice.
-However, we've disappointed the people
[November 2023, Seoul Sangbu District Court, Chairman Ji Dong Man's prison sentence protest]
"We've done wrong, without a doubt."
[Ojung Group Chairman Ji Dong Man causes a car accident while receiving external medical treatment]
So, we bow our heads and ask for forgiveness without making any excuses.
We will be reborn as a true people's company.
Nice.
[Ojung Group Executive Director Ji Myeong Seop]
Ojung Group's generational transition toward a new era begins!
[Heading toward a new era, Ojung Group]
It's good.
Public apology, my foot.
He acts exactly like his father.
Isn't it too short?
Pardon? No, no!
Keeping it short has more impact.
If it's long, it gets boring. This is perfect.
- Reporter Oh,
- Yes.
I heard Ojung Group Chairman Ji Dong Man, who recently sparked a controversy
also used the attorney consultation room every day while in prison.
Is that so?
The timing is quite impeccable.
He's used the attorney consultation room more than a thousand times already.
According to a Ministry of Justice spokesperson
Attorney Lee, this is Report Woo. Yes
Today, I have something to report to you.
It's just that Ojung Group sent me quite an interesting press release.
So, are you interested?
[Inmate Classification Review Sheet]
[Name: Cheon Su Beom - Approved for parole review]
Aigoo, seriously.
Congratulations.
All that's left is for Chief Cheon Su Beom to pass his parole review and leave prison.
It's still too early to relax.
Pardon? W-Why?
There are many people who don't want Chief Cheon's parole release.
Yes
Please drink this as you have your conversation.
- Thanks, Warden Bae.
- Sure.
He won't be approved anyway.
You have Chairman Yoon, Attorney Seo, and me
Three people with unwavering disqualified opinions.
Why would you worry?
I wanted to beat up Cheon Su Beom a bit
in Jeoksong Prison before his parole review,
but that got stopped. So I'm just annoyed.
But you've already come up with another alternative plan.
Come on, Chairman.
Yeah, no matter how clever Lee Han Sin may be,
I'll catch and break him properly this time.
Make sure that the evidence you handed over is properly utilized, Director Jeong.
I'll compensate you generously again.
Yes, of course.
I'm back.
What? Did I do something wrong?
Where's the Captain?
The Captain went to the command unit workshop and won't be back for two days.
That's perfect.
It's good timing.
Talk to me for a minute.
Sunbae.
This is that video, right?
Kim Ju Mok
Before the Captain gets back, join me in causing some trouble.
Director.
Yes.
What, Warden Bae? Do you have something to say to me?
Yes, well
That profitable prospect the Chairman just mentioned
I wanted to connect you to it.
Aigoo, Chairman, seriously.
This quickly?
Let's talk in the warden's office for a moment.
All right.
Looks like the baby whale will be captured soon.
Pardon? What baby whale?
Oh, is Director Jeong Wook the baby whale?
So? What's the profitable prospect that the Chairman promised me?
It's this.
Unlisted stocks whose value will skyrocket soon!
Oh, really?
I profited quite a bit from that strategic stock last time.
Which stock is it? No, no. How much and by when do I have to invest?
As you probably know, this is a guaranteed success,
so the requirements are a bit lofty.
This guy! This isn't our first go-around!
I understand, so just give me the info.
The investment must be at least two large bills.
Two large bills?
And the deadline is today.
What? By today?
Yes.
Gosh
And I also have a place you can get funds from.
This guy!
Good.
You know, Jeong Wook. The one who does the dirty dishes for Ojung Group.
I got all of his financial and personal info,
and sent him two large bills in loans.
[Smile Cash]
A hacker in my company started running the program,
so just wait a little- Wait.
You already finished?
Mr. Baek, give them a bonus.
Hey, Attorney Lee. We've caught the baby whale that he can't live without.
Okay, got it.
It's time for us to start pushing him into the trap.
I'll see you later.
Wow, President Choi has such a drive.
Mr. Hwang, while I'm capturing Director Jeong Wook, the whale,
I need you to do something for me.
Me?
Yes, yes? Pardon?
[Press]
Aigoo, thank you.
Thank you.
[Convention Hall 2]
Yes, I've infiltrated the press conference hall.
Only Attorney Seo Dong Hoon is here.
Supposedly, the press conference will begin at 8 p.m.
They targeted the time when viewership is highest.
I got it.
Please continue to do what you're doing.
Captain, you'll stick with us to the end, right?
Of course.
I'll get rid of the nuisance to the Chairman.
Since the statute of limitations hasn't expired yet,
you have to take care of it immediately.
Since we have evidence from the prosecution, it should be pretty easy.
Why are you calling me at this hour?
Press conference?
We will now start the press conference.
I want to thank everyone who attended on short notice
despite your busy schedule.
Recently, there was a scandal involving Ojung Group.
Ojung Group expresses deep remorse regarding this matter
and decided to hold this space to apologize to the public.
Let's give a round of applause to Executive Director Ji Myeong Seop as he comes up.
I'm sorry! Let's not do the applause. Sorry about that.
All right, please come up.
Ji Myeong Seop, that bastard! In the end, he
I'm Ji Myeong Seop, an executive director at Ojung Group.
Recently, as a result of a scandal involving Chairman Ji Dong Man,
we've greatly disappointed the people,
who've supported and loved Ojung Group.
We bow our heads in remorse and ask for forgiveness.
We will take your criticisms deeply to heart,
and work hard to become an Ojung Group that you can trust again.
[Ojung Group Executive Director Ji Myeong Seop, Public Apology Press Conference]
Hey, play the video.
Hey, I think you played the wrong video.
Director Son, I have
a bit of an annoying situation. You need to come.
You're here?
She's dead, right?
Is she dead?
Damn it,
this is so annoying.
You brought a car, right? Give me the keys.
A person has died.
So what?
Isn't it your job to clean up after stuff like these?
Hand over the car keys.
What are you doing! Turn it off right now!
Hey, turn off the video! Turn it off!
I-I'm not involved in this!
This has nothing to do with me. Don't take photos of me!
D-Don't
Turn off the video, turn it off!
Ji Myeong Seop!
Ji Myeong Seop, you are under emergency arrest for the murder of An Da Yun.
Son Eung Jun!
You are under arrest for the murder of An Da Yun.
♫ No matter how you try, you're in the palm of my hands ♫
♫ You're a megalomaniac ♫
♫ You're going to lose so many ♫
♫ You can push me away and try to hold me off ♫
♫ It won't work on me, megalomaniac ♫
♫ Even if you try to block me, you'll lose ♫
What you just saw has nothing to do with Ojung Group!
I have nothing to do with this incident.
Oppa, you're so cool!
Let's go for round two, round two!
Oppa, what's going on?
I'm in a really good mood since I caught a big one for the first time in a while.
Really? That's so great, Oppa!
Just wait a few days.
I will reel up a golden whale
and bring it back on my shoulders!
Do you know how much I spent today?
I do, I do.
- Director?
- What?
Today, it's this way.
He says it's that way today.
Oh, okay, okay. This place is expensive.
Let's go to the cheap place!
Tell me if you need anything.
- Can I really?
- Of course!
I want to have a bag.
- Oh, Louis Vuitton?
- Louis Vuitton!
I love it.
Louis Vuitton, my foot!
Come on, Oppa!
Okay, okay! It was just a joke.
Gosh, why am I getting pinged this late at night?
[Hidden Bank Withdrew 100,000,000 won / Smile Cash - Remaining balance: 4,700,000 won]
What the
[Hidden Bank: 4,700,000 won - 4,600,000 won]
Hey, go away for a bit!
No
Who's messing with my money!
My money!
My money! My money! Are these bastards crazy?
My money, my money!
My money, my money! Damn it!
These bastards!
Who are you guys?
Hey, what's going on!
Let go! Let go of me, you bastards!
Hey! Let go of me, you bastards!
Do you know who I am?
What are you saying?
You handed over your resident ID number, account number,
home address, and your government ID, hearing I would lend you money.
Then, are you guys
Smile Cash?
Even if you were in a rush,
you shouldn't give away such important info so rashly like that.
Especially in a world where clicking a link could lead to losing your entire fortune.
You dared to do a phishing scam on me, a prosecutor?
Do you know how I amassed that money!
Give me my money.
I said, give me my money, you bastards!
Quiet.
- Mr. Baek, you might rip it off at that rate.
- Okay.
Let's not take it easy.
As a prosecutor and Director of Correctional Services,
you used your high position to accept bribes
through your Hidden Bank slush fund account.
If you don't give me back my money,
I'll do whatever it takes to end you.
I'll end you all!
Give me my money! I'll end you, damn it!
Hey, asshole!
You've got the order wrong!
You lost all your money, and it's in my hands already.
So, right now is the time for you to do something
to get your money back.
Don't you think so?
You want me to
do something?
Can you
abandon your family?
When will you give me back my money?
Will you give it back right away today? Or tomorrow?
Wow, this guy is an absolute scumbag!
What, you'd abandon your family?
Hey, hold him properly! He's moving.
Hey, you bastard! You would abandon your family?
Look at me in the face!
Look at me, you bastard!
Family? You'd abandon your family?
You don't have any sense of duty!
Hey, lift your head. Lift your head, you bastard!
President Choi, please calm down a bit.
You're not fully recovered yet.
Oh, right. I should calm down.
A-Attorney Lee.
Director, how about this?
If we give you back your slush fund,
will you betray him?
B-Betray whom?
Ojung Group Chairman Ji Dong Man.
Shocking news!
Ji Myeong Seop, the son of Ojung Group Chairman Ji Dong Man
and an executive director,
was under emergency arrest for murder at the press conference.
A video, presumed to have recorded the scene of a murder,
was released during the press conference, shocking the audience.
Though the validity of the video has not yet been verified,
the police authorities revealed that they performed
a rare emergency arrest after finding important evidence.
This case was broadcast live on multiple stations-
So
that night was
You crazy bastard! How could you kill someone?
Myeong Seop killed someone?
Why can't you behave, you bastard!
That was the day.
[Sangbu Mall]
Wow, I saw yesterday that Lieutenant An's drive is on par with that of President Choi.
She released the murder evidence at the press conference
and immediately arrested Ji Myeong Seop.
Then, she immediately arrested Director Son Eung Jun, who was nearby.
I feel like I've fallen for Lieutenant An a bit.
Is this good?
It's perfect.
Weren't you the MVP of yesterday?
Don't mention it.
It was TNS Reporter Woo who told us about the press conference
and got us a press pass.
Oh, and I thought that I needed to wait
at least an hour in front of the control room to switch the videos
Hello? Yeah, yeah.
Give me a moment.
but the staff happened to leave right at that moment.
Please, please! Hurry up!
Then, are you saying that the control room staff was the MVP?
Let's just say that my ancestors blessed me since things fell into place.
since I was pretty fortunate overall.
With that said, I have a good feeling about today's parole review.
Yes, well
I'm nervous.
In any case, thank you.
I'll be back.
See you.
I'll count on you today as well.
Yes, don't worry.
Gosh, should I start getting ready, too?
♫ I'm a typhoon that wants to wipe away the unjust world ♫
♫ Those steps of cowards busy running away ♫
♫ Honestly, I want to recommend giving up ♫
♫ Sadly, your wasted life is a fraudulent sale ♫
♫ You grabbed me by my collar, and now you're at court for assault ♫
♫ What I asked was done, but it was mellow ♫
Wow, that's refreshing!
That feels great! Whoa, nice!
♫ I have no one to lean on, so I fight alone ♫
♫ The ground under my feet is shaky ♫
♫ Watch out, it could catch fire whenever ♫
♫ No matter who I face, I don't want to give up even if I end up as a loser ♫
♫ Die in memories, hide in my grave after I die ♫
- Aigoo, that's nice.
- That's nice.
Aigoo, Mr. Hwang!
Aigoo, A-Attorney Seo!
You've lost so much weight after becoming Attorney Lee's sidekick.
Yes, I'm having a lot of fun, thanks to the Attorney.
Oh, is that so?
Well, enjoy yourself.
Why are you snickering?
No, no.
- Didn't you snicker at me?
- No, no.
But you're already leaving?
Yeah, I'm leaving because I'm done.
I mean, I guess you're lacking in stamina.
What? H-How am I lacking stamina? How?
Oh, it's okay. Lacking stamina isn't a crime.
Gosh, you're funny.
I'll do one more round, then!
I'm overflowing with stamina!
Let's break a sweat together.
I've already done this about five times already.
I've also done it like 10 times.
Oh, okay, then let's do it.
Also, I'm not a sidekick. I'm a paralegal.
Yeah? Okay, sidekick.
Hello!
Continue working. Yeah, carry on.
Hyungnim.
Oh! You're here.
You must feel nervous since today's your parole review.
When I was a correction officer, I didn't understand why candidates were nervous.
But now that I'm in their shoes, I understand.
Everything will go well.
Don't worry too much.
Thanks.
I'll be going.
The review will start soon.
I'll make sure to bring you good news later today.
And that's it! See!
I finished it, right?
I'm leaving.
Man, I'm still full of stamina
I have to leave, so Wait, wait.
I have to leave.
Gosh, it's nice.
Wow, the sauna is nice and warm.
The s-sauna is nice and warm, right?
Wow, it's nice.
I-I want to leave
Hey, looking good. Have you been working out?
I'm working out diligently.
That's nice.
The phone is turned off.
You'll be connected to the voicemail after the beep-
and there will be an additional charge.
Have both Attorney Seo and Director Jeong lost their minds?
Why are they both not picking up?
You're late.
Oh, yes.
Administrative Secretary, have you heard from Attorney Seo?
No, I haven't.
Chairman, it's almost time.
How about we get started first?
Then, we'll start the parole review.
Administrative Secretary, please tell us what's on the agenda.
799 people applied for the monthly parole review for March 2025.
Wow, that was refreshing.
It's nice.
It was so hard.
What did I just go through in the sauna
because of that bastard, Hwang Ji Sun!
Finally, we will examine the case, which needs careful review.
Candidate 655 fulfilled his enforcement rate,
is a model inmate and has a low recidivism rating.
However, because of the nature of his crime of smuggling
and distributing drugs in a prison as a correction officer is severe,
he's been classified as needing careful review.
Please give us your opinion first, Examiner Oh Ban Seok.
I believe an inmate's attitude and the level of his remorse is more important
than what crime he committed in the past.
So, I give him a qualified opinion.
I give him a disqualified opinion.
Next,
it's Parole Examiner Lee Han Sin.
Okay.
My opinion on Candidate 655 is
One moment, please.
[Parole Examiner Seo Don't Hoon sent this.]
Well, my opinion is-
I'm sorry, I just received an important report regarding Candidate 655.
I feel that Parole Examiner Lee Han Sin should be exempt from reviewing this case.
- Yes, Chairman.
- What were you doing that you didn't pick up?
Yes, Chairman! I'm on my way!
Where are you?
Weren't you in the parole review room?
I'm sorry. I was dealing with an issue.
Issue? What issue!
What about the document that will fail Cheon Su Beom?
I sent it via courier as you instructed.
It should have arrived there by now.
In this document,
[2022 List of Correction Officers at Sangbu Prison]
I see that Candidate 655 and Examiner Lee Han Sin
[Cheon Su Beom, Lee Han Sin]
worked together as correction officers in Sangbu Prison.
Is that correct, Parole Examiner Lee Han Sin?
Yes, that's correct.
Parole Examiner Lee Han Sin faces a conflict of interest regarding Candidate 655,
so his opinion will be excluded.
Next,
please tell us your opinion, Parole Examiner Jeong Wook.
Director,
how about this?
If we give you back your slush fund,
will you betray him?
B-Betray whom?
Ojung Group Chairman Ji Dong Man.
Wow!
He answered without hesitation when I asked him to abandon his family.
Hey, are you that afraid of Ojung Group's Ji Dong Man?
It's not that you're scared.
Rather, you're hesitating in your response
because you're afraid of how much money you'll lose
when you betray Ojung Group, right?
Hey.
I'll give you double.
What?
If it's double
Ten billion won?
Yeah.
Though seeing your face light up at the sound of offering you double disgusts me,
if you do everything as Attorney Lee asks of you,
I'll send the money to your slush fund account right away.
Ten billion won.
What will you do?
Will you
take our deal?
It appears that the parole review result of Candidate 655 depends on your opinion.
Please tell us your opinion.
Q-Qualified opinion.
Pardon?
What did you say?
I said, my opinion is
a qualified opinion!
Pardon?
How many times must I tell you that it's a qualified opinion?
Chairman, you should officially announce the results.
Yes, you're right.
With two qualified opinions and one disqualified opinion,
Candidate 655 is given a qualified opinion.
[Seoul Sangbu Police Precinct]
You're going to burn a hole in my face.
You've investigated me all night.
You're still not satisfied?
I still haven't heard anything from you.
The right to remain silent.
You said that was my right.
You told me that while putting handcuffs on me.
Aigoo, I guess it's time for me to leave now.
It's taking so long.
I guess even my dad's influence is growing weaker.
You should stop now.
Lieutenant An.
I'll pay you back for yesterday and today
so look forward to it.
Sure.
And also,
that video
Where did you get it?
I guess you are curious, after all.
Think carefully.
By chance, was it you?
Please stop.
I guess it wasn't.
Gosh, who could it be?
Yes, Sunbae.
Everything went well.
The Chief's parole was approved.
- Great work.
- Yes.
You really did a great job.
- I'll head over there.
- Okay.
Hyung
you passed.
Hyung,
you can leave now!

♫ I'll show you ♫
♫ You're a megalomaniac ♫

You're Lee Han Sin, right?
Oh, yes.
Hello, I'm Attorney Lee Han Sin.
You'll have to come with us.
Okay, let's go. What is this about?
Lee Han Sin, you are under arrest for violating the Narcotics Control Act.
You have the right to remain silent and the right to an attorney.
W-Wait, what did you say? N-Narcotics?
W-What do you mean by that?
Wait, what is this!

[Parole Examiner Lee]
I'm suspended?
You think I don't know you've partnered with criminals for your investigations?
They are launching a massive media campaign to divert public attention away
from Ji Myeong Seop's murder case.
- Chief Cheon Su Beom.
- If I step in the forefront of the media battle,
it would be the most uncomfortable scenario for Ojung Group.
Leave the country now. Live there quietly until I call you back.
Where's the video? Where's the video!
Above the law, above people, there's money.
The upcoming events won't go how you want it to.
