Who the f***?!

Son of a b*tch!

FOR THE EMPEROR:

I really don't get it.

I don't know if that was

a miscalculation on his part,

or limitation of his control,

but he couldn't fulfill his duties

as a relief pitcher,

and completely blew the lead...

Where did it all begin?

Busan High Pitcher Lee Hwan

leads team to series win

MVP Pitcher Lee Hwan

Scouted to Red Whales

Most Anticipated Debut

Sudden Shoulder Injury

Dropped to 2nd String

A walk, then a triple in the 9th,

and a loss by 2

equals 50x payout.

Is he really a rookie?

His accuracy is one of a kind.

Let's finish the deal.

Fine!

Hey!

Everything's here?

It was a few hundred short

last time.

Don't be a cheapskate

over pocket change.

We got heavy unloaders today,

play a few hands.

It's littered with

rich f***ing posers.

See you.

Let's go.

Hwan, let's do this again soon.

You're short a bundle.

Did I bring you to the 1st string

for sucking me off?

Commission, a**hole.

Motherf***er...

Incoming raid!

Get out!

Catch-and-release is my job

as a prosecutor.

Treat me to fancy sushi soon.

Take care, Sang-ha.

Even penny slot players

are gamblers.

You're lucky, Hwan.

Bud!

Isn't this yours?

Look at them bruises,

are you alright?

It looks pretty bad.

My heart f***ing aches...

Listen here.

Loans are supposed to be paid back,

not to be forgotten.

If you paid in time,

you coulda saved them bruises,

and have a good laugh.

Who the f***?

I want my money.

Is that f***ing mutt lost?

- Here.

- Yes, sir.

Listen here, you sh*t,

you're so out of your...

Wait!

It's the king of game fixer, Lee...

Look, look.

Stop right there.

You really surprised me.

A tough guy, eh?

I don't know what your deal is,

but being an athlete

means sh*t in this part of town.

Tossing balls now and then,

and street fights are...

I said I'm sorry.

F*** your f***ing sorry, f***er.

I need to be compensated,

$10,000.

Give me a card.

Hwangje Capital

- It's him?

- Yes, boss.

He was kicked out

for game-rigging.

He's the one.

Cute.

You outnumbered him,

yet, he still bested you?

If I wanted to, I could have smashed

his spine and every bone in his body.

But we outnumbered him,

so we went gentle.

Hey, you'll freeze to death.

Get up, mister!

Out of my way!

Look at this prick.

It's unacceptable to come back empty

from a collection.

Jong-ho, weren't you

on top of this?

Rockfish still has some clout

on the streets.

Sh*t could hit the fan

if we don't tread carefully.

Don't make excuses like a b*tch.

You're the f*** who called?

This guy's a piece of work.

You want a loan

for the compensation?

Isn't that why

you wanted to see me?

I don't got sh*t.

So why shouldn't I

ask a shady loan shark?

Brave motherf***er, this one.

Get the f*** up,

if you wanna

keep breathing!

Enough.

I did ask for you.

What'll you do

for the money?

Shouldn't you at least

have some credibility?

He's called Rockfish

a retired gangster.

This fat f*** took off

with our money.

Young man, isn't life

more important than money?

Don't get worked up

and get killed,

sit this one out

and observe.

See how pros do it.

- Let's go!

- Yes, boss.

Bring Sang-ha,

you hear me?!

Stay out of this,

I got this!

Son of a whore!

Come at me!

Who the f*** are you?

Do you know who I am?

So, you're goldfish?

Goldfish?

Goldfish?!

Time to pay up

if you had enough fun.

Motherf***er!

What the f***...

Rockfish's all but finished

in Busan.

Done deal?

Everyone knows you now,

what will you do?

- Why do you care?

- Why shouldn't I?

Continue working for us.

You got the chops.

Overconfidence alone won't

put food on the table.

Either cook, or line up

at a soup kitchen.

If not...

starve to death.

When does he start?

He'll report tomorrow, sir.

Life's full of ironies.

How's Madame Cha?

She's doing well.

The old man likes her too.

Tell her to keep a good watch.

Put him in good mood.

Yes, sir.

Hi!

Got a boner?

Let's go.

Boss, he's in great shape.

I picked out his clothes.

He's got a good build,

so everything fits.

Even rags look good on him.

F*** that sh*t,

look how skinny he is.

Leave the past behind,

and have a fresh start.

Yes, sir.

Come on, boss!

He took care of a weak ass b*tch,

there's no need to

put him on a high horse.

F***ing gambler.

What the f***

are you staring at?

I'll f***ing rip your eyes out!

Boy, get up

Get the f*** up!

Calm down.

Hwan is now part of the family.

Raise your glasses.

Didn't make you

for a cheap drunk.

Stay with Kyung-su

and learn the ropes.

Yes, sir.

Wait, come here.

F***ing smooth.

Stick it at the right height.

When you're on the toilet,

squeezing sh*t out,

your soul is also released...

And at that moment,

they have to see the sticker.

Don't you see this?

I know it's an Au-f***ing-di.

- It's worth more than...

- Fine, deal's over.

Wait, please!

Let's go.

No, I'm not done here.

Hold on a minute.

1-click Bets -

League Schedule

Let's go.

Did you turn it off?

I picked a few teams.

You f***ing nuts?!

F*** off!

Hands off!

HVe-jllng, you're up.

100 grand!

200!

Jackpot!

Holy f***ing sh*t!

Going home?

What's the most useless thing

in our business?

Sir?

Sympathy.

Sympathy won't make you rich.

If you sympathize with a pig,

how'd you eat pork?

So cool...

You see?

Once you let go of sympathy,

you gain respect.

Luck or skill?

The betting, I mean.

You play a lot?

Ball players can't make bets.

Baseball is all I know,

so I see the big picture quickly.

Why don't you manage

our sports betting website?

If you're so versed in betting,

you can manipulate the odds

and game selection to our favor.

Think it over

and open the glove compartment.

Take it.

It's an older model,

but Benz is still a status symbol.

I'm alright.

You can't park here.

I was about to leave.

Got plans tomorrow?

Who is he?

Your pimp?

Just a friend.

Missy.

You two rubbed uglies,

haven't you?

He wouldn't look at me

so menacingly othewvise.

Was she tasty?

Her p*ssy still firm and tight?

Who the f*** are you?!

Stop it.

Stop it!

I thought he'd get 5 years,

but he only served 3.

Cutter's not someone who'll let

bygones be bygones.

Stay on full alert.

Hwan, pay your respect.

This is Hwangje's chairman.

He takes care of

our betting website.

He's got the wits

and punches to boot.

Probably good at

choking old men too.

So the congressman's lobby

didn't work?

Buhyun Bank is tight

with the ruling party.

An idiot can only do so much.

At least you got the casino

and hotel stakes out of this.

Please ease your mind.

Imagine doing it on my land,

know how much that'd be?

We're not talking about

a few million.

Take good care of

the men noted there.

How did this break...

I'm sorry, chairman,

I'll replace it, sir.

Got $500,000 on you?

Bury him when you break

hotel ground.

Please spare me,

I will...

replace it with something similar
