Sang-hoon.

Manager Lee

That was a great show.

Okay Hyun-joon, I got you!

I got you so listen to me.

When you pick a school,

you need to evaluate the quality

such as how many graduates

make it to Harvard or Yale.

Don't you worry about the tuition.

What do I do the best?

What does daddy do the best?

I'm best at making money.

Ask mom if there was a time

daddy didn't send money on time.

So don't.

So don't think about anything else

and simply study.

Ask mom for anything

If you need more money, you tell me.

Daddy can send you everything.

You know I make good money

I'm the key person at work.

You know?

Thanks, son.

Now, you can tell me

what you really wanted to say in English.

What are you doing?

I'm sitting

I told you so

Lee Sang-hoon is not making

enough buzz around the white-collars.

Chief

I think this lukewarm response

of the viewers.

Mr. Cho!

Match of Legends?

We ask people to vote online

for the best eight players.

For the prize of $100,000,

an 8 player knock-out tournament.

A contest to find the best

middle-aged fighter.

Isn't it sexy?

Not for $100,000.

Why not?

It's too little.

Then for $200,000?

I'll take the $200,000

and raise live broadcast.

When people dial in to vote,

we can also charge them money.

Call.

If I may add one more,

these untamed fights

no longer draw attention.

So we train them with

an intensive course

Jason owns a gym

We train all of them there

so they can fight like

the professional athletes.

Good.

So you didn't get your title

by winning a poker game.

You like my idea?

Okay.

Legend Let's all gather in the meeting room.

Yes.

Ms. Hong.

Remember the guy who was

bluffing about National Intelligence?

Mr. Seo Kang-kuk?

That's him.

He called me.

Why?

I got his old job back.

What?

He wanted to thank me

for getting what he wants

and thank the show

$200,000 Prize.

The Street Fighter, Shin Jae-seok.

Fried Chicken Restaurant Owner

Yoo Tae-kyung.

The Legendary Fighter.

Former high school boxer

Legendary Lim Deok-kyu.

White-collar Fighter Lee Sang-hoon.

Unruly Fighter

Mr. Turtle, Choi Joong-man.

Who will

remain

as the true

legend?

Don't I cook well?

You're about half as good as mom.

Eat a lot.

You too.

That's your favorite

I had 7 pieces out of 8

You eat it.

Since my cutie pie gave it to me,

I'll try it.

It's yummy.

Hello. I told you I won't go.

Stop calling me.

You made that tournament

without asking me.

What can I possibly do now?

Match of Legends?

Yeah.

There are many guys

who want to show off their strength.

So bring them to the show

I'm not interested.

Are you kidding me?

You told me never to

give up on a dream.

What dream?

When you were boxing,

did you ever win a championship?

No. I haven't.

Lim Soo-bin.

Granny called. She told me

to make you go on the tournament.

Eight.

Kick with your weight into it.

Sang-hoon, harder

It's too weak.

Kick with your weight into it.

That's it! A knee kick!

Hi, Deok-kyu You came.

One, two! One, two!

Jab into it!

Grab it by the neck!

Knee kick! A knee kick!

Next is pounding.

Pounding.

You see the hands going up.

Hold it and go for an arm bar.

Game over.

You okay?

Yes, I'm fine.

That's it! Grab the neck!

A knee kick.

A knee kick A take-down.

Pounding.

After pounding, hold the hand

and throw an arm bar.

Are you okay?

No, I'm not okay

I'll go easy

okay.

We should've had a drink

after taping the show that day

I don't want to drink with someone

who purposely lost the game

I'm sorry about that day

I didn't think much about it.

If we really fought,

who would've won?

I don't know.

You, me, and Shin Jae-seok.

We might fight at the tournament.

But I have to win this time

I have my reasons.

Me too.

Let's forget everything

when this is over.

You haven't changed.

You've always been the cool one

and I was the mean one.

There's nothing cool or mean about it.

We were all young.

Young and stupid.

You're still the cool one.

You think this is your bedroom?

Which one is Son Jin-ho?

I'm Shin Jae-seok

Shin Jae-seok.

Come out.

Wait in here for a bit.

Yes, chief.

You all right?

I was so worried about you.

Please make sure your dad

doesn't worry too much about this.

You're 18. What do you want

to do with your life?

You want to come in and out

of the prison?

Listen to me carefully

I'll introduce you to a person

who will save you from all.

Or you can call your

parents to pick you up

and go in front of the judge later

I'll go with the first option.

Go on.

That's the good guy

I've told you about.

Get in.

Today, you become adults.

In the world of adults,

you can't always win by working hard.

A person who knows how to win, wins.

We're trying to get every person

in this lot to sign the contract.

And one guy is holding out.

Do you how to win that?

You threaten him.

At the end of the hallway

on the 3rd floor,

there's an office without a sign.

There will be a guy sitting alone.

Stab his stomach

two, three times and come back.

If you bring back the knife,

there's no evidence.

You saw my cop friend.

Those cops won't come

near this area today.

All my kids are dying to do this job.

Why?

Because they want to succeed

with one shot.

But I want to give you guys

this opportunity.

Why?

Because I want to teach you

how to win.

- Thank you.

- Hey

I'll wait here

Hurry and finish the job.

You just lay low for a while

It's game over.

Yes, sir.

Shin Jae-seok.

Come on.

Sh*t.

Shin Jae-seok.

This is so wrong.

What is?

This is wrong.

If you can't do it, then go

I'll do it alone.

Deok-kyu.

Don't go outside.

Hey!

Sang-hoon.

Deok-kyu We were duped.

There's nobody here.

Nobody's f***ing waiting.

Let's go tell Jae-seok.

Forget it.

He won't stab anyone.

Let's f***ing study

and go to college.

Get hold of yourself, a**hole.

You get hold of yourself.

You don't want to do it either

Why did you follow him?

Lee Sang-hoon

Lee Sang-hoon!

Please help me.

Jae-seok.

Deok-kyu, I'm scared.

Let's go. Come on.

Just run.

Hurry.

It's the 3rd floor, get him!

I'm Shin Jae-seok from

South Seoul High.

You were here.

What are you doing here

at this hour?

Deok-kyu

Can we go somewhere together?

Hello, come this way.

Nice to meet you

I'm Ahn Yong-chul.

You know Choi Joong-man, Mr. Turtle.

Jae-seok says we've met before.

But I just don't remember.

Have a seat.

How long ago? 25 years ago?

Yes.

Back then, I was involved

with organized crime.

Now, I just run a normal business

This is my shop.

My daughter is waiting

I have to get back soon

I see

Then let's make this short.

Do you know sports betting sites?

I'm running one.

And?

Aren't you short tempered?

Listen closely.

This Match of Legends

is up on our site.

Naturally, I'm going to bet on

my kid Joong-man.

You've seen the tournament chart.

You're up against Joong-man

for the semi-final.

And that's practically the final round.
