Why'd you become a con-man?

You might not know this...

I once placed 38th

nationwide in a mock SAT.

But my father passed away,

and I got all his debts.

What could I do?

Nothing to do except to

use this face and brain.

From my point of view,

are you a bad guy or not?

I guess not.

Go to hell.

Once this is over

live your life right!.

Yes, understood, bro!

Bro?

By the way...

why does no one

come to see you?

Guess I was a bad guy

on the outside.

You must be married.

How about kids?

You're not?

You totally look married!

What kind of life did you lead?

Gosh!

Now, my verdict.

Reflecting the Supreme

Court's precedent,

it is hard to see

that the defendant

showed a willingness to swindle

the victim out of money

so there is no case for fraud.

So the court revokes

the original verdict

and declares

the defendant not guilty.

Congratulations, Chi-won.

Sir!

I'm going out tomorrow!

Happy?

Don't smile.

What's this?

The numbers of the perjurers

at my trial 5 years ago.

Don't waste your time

on useless crap.

Focus on the work I give you.

Hey...

I promise that I will do

my best to resolve your pain.

You smart ass.

Don't overdo it!

- Let's get back to work!

- Let's get back to work!

Let's go!

What's next?

- Beat it, you're bugging me.

- I know you like it.

This is why

you don't have a wife.

I said beat it!

Hello, who is it?

It's me, Han Chi-won.

Han Chi-won?

I thought you were dead!

What brings you here?

Take it slow.

Do the bosses not feed you?

Guess you're on a roll.

You look so nice and shiny.

You know I use my brain.

- I can't go wrong.

- Really?

But where are

the brainy ones?

Busy with

the election campaign.

Lots of deliveries to make.

Guys like us just get

chewed out all the time.

Sir, I'm thankful for the meal

and happy for your success.

Please propose a toast.

- Stop it.

- Please!

Give him a big hand!

It's embarrassing.

Here, to your health

and lots of money!

Most of all, to life!

Cheers!

Cheers!

He looks handsome!

Buddy.

Let's toast, after so long.

Sure.

I heard that Jin-seok died.

I was abroad for a long time

so couldn't attend his funeral.

Stop it!

That was ages ago!

Madam! 5 more plates!

Coming!

And I heard that...

he was beaten to death

by this crazy prosecutor.

Hey!

Why do you keep talking

about the dead?

My bad.

I'm losing my appetite.

I'll try harder, boss.

Let's go second round!

Second round!

- Look.

- Why?

Think about it.

What have you gotten

for working your ass off?

If this greasy pork

gives you a heart attack,

then what?

I was an athlete in my high school days,

and I only weighed 60 kg.

But doing my job

while eating that fodder??

But at least

we should be grateful

that we're alive like this.

So we can

drink together now!

Look at Jin-seok.

What kind of life is that?

Damn poor bastard.

He could never

even breathe properly.

We always teased him.

Then... was he sick

in the first place?

You didn't know?

His asthma was really serious!

What? Asthma?

You knew he had asthma?

Sure.

Everyone knew about it.

Why do you ask?

You didn't know?

I didn't.

How could he...

My friend.

Let's drink.

Can I have one?

Thank you.

What I mean is...

if Jin-seok started to talk bullshit

it could've ruined the boss' business.

Right.

That's what I mean!

- So the boss did it to him?

- Right.

The boss ordered Jin-seok killed.

So you're saying it's not

the prosecutor who did it.

Right?

I got it all right.

That's why I lied in court.

We just did as the boss ordered.

Damn that's hot!

- Oh! Are you okay?

- Are you crazy? You bastard!

It turned out really nice!

Son of Pohang...

To be precise,

I'm not from Pohang.

Don't say that again!

For a politician,

your precinct is your hometown.

Yes, sir.

Oh, Jang. Make it quick.

I'm a bit busy now.

Sir, have you heard?

Heard what?

Byun Jae-wook

applied for a retrial.

I think one of my boys

who testified in court

I think one of my boys

might've said something

I'm afraid something

could go wrong.

Don't talk about

this on the phone.

Where are you now?

Are you out of your minds,

you bloody bastards?

How long do I have to do this?

You sons of b*tches!

You guys wait outside.

- Sir.

- Mr. Jang.

Since becoming a prosecutor,

I developed a daily routine.

- You know what it is?

- Pardon?

Don't know sir.

I meditate for an hour

every morning.

Doing that clears my head

and I can see clearly

what I couldn't before.

You see what?

I can see, among those

who clean my sh*t,

who will back stab me someday.

I'm sorry, sir.

Look at you...

I turned a reckless moron

into a businessman!

And you pay me back

with this kind of sh*t?

Sir!

I understand

you are not satisfied

but I tried my best for you...

Only a month until the election.

Let's get it right.

And call me often!

Yes, sir.

We've got the slippery one.

Okay. Good job.

You wrap it up on your own.

What do you mean

by wrapping it up?

You stupid ass.

Whether you scare him

into silence,

or beat him senseless,

I don't care.

I just want you to handle it

and report me the result!

- Understood?

- Yes, sir.

- Hello, sir!

- Long time no see, Min-woo!

You've been on the

up and up nowadays!

You look a bit exhausted.

Don't enter politics.

It's quite tough.

Did something happen?

Well... I heard

Byun Jae-wook appealed.

Pardon?

I'm afraid it might stir up gossip

right before the election.

Why so suddenly?

This is perfect timing

to put a dent in my career.

It's been a while

since you met your friend.

You go and meet him.

The trial can wait??

until the election is over.

Wow, you've changed a lot!

You grew a beard?

Let us talk in private.

And I assume it's okay to smoke?

Well, yes, sir.

Have one.

It's hard to get

one of these here.

I don't know

what's on your mind.

But if you are trying to

raise hay to sabotage us,

I warn you to stop.

You came all the way

to tell me this?

You know well

there'll be no retrial

with one piece of evidence.

Wow...

Now you talk like a prosecutor.

Finally learned how to threaten.

Don't be sarcastic.

For 20 years since high school

I smoked 3 packs a day.

But I quit five years ago.

My head's never been clearer

in my whole life.

Take care.

Give Woo my best regards.

Ruthless bastards??

I'm sorry, pal.

Did you convince him to testify?

He's all smashed up.

He might live the rest of

his life half-paralyzed.

Damn...you're okay?

Wouldn't be talking to you

if I were caught.

Might be drowned or in pieces

at the bottom of some lake.

Let's talk more face to face.

Come meet me.

Sir.

I gave it a lot of thought.

I think I paid you back

for what you've done for me.

Please don't call anymore.

Hanna told me

you mo would like to run

a small business.

Isn't it too humble for you

after all your studies in the States?

We can start small first.

My folks also started

with a small gas station in the US.

You went to Penn, right?

Yes!

I studied business administration.
