Don't push me, a**hole!

Holy sh*t.

We're in the boonies.

Where's the petting zoo?

Memorized your lines, right?

Remember our plan.

Yes, boss.

Just be natural.

Big boss at the laundromat

we run real estate.

We didn't leave

the factory for this.

We arrive in a hard hat,

leave in a suit.

Our days will come soon.

How about getting

apartment parcel in Banpo?

Good ones are

like real estate lotto.

Not everyone can get it

I could tie up my tubes.

What?

Men who get vasectomy

have advantage.

Since overpopulation is

a problem nowadays.

Those shooting blanks

get the upper hand.

Goddammit...

I could get it reversed

it's simple!

Jong-dae! Come on!

$30 per 3 square meter.

Forget it, $80,

take it or leave it

$30 is still a lot

I'll buy the whole lot.

Ma'am, sign with the other one.

One moment please.

This lot is designated

to be a park.

Hey!

Lee, a bit to the left.

To your left!

What are you doing on my land!

- We're surveying.

- What for?

5m more, goddammit!

You must really need quick cash.

You said you wouldn't

sell it for even $50.

We got them for dirt cheap,

but why buy up worthless lands?

Just you wait.

With the dirt cheap lands we acquired,

we buy and sell to each other,

and drive up the market.

And when others get

a wind of it,

we'll sell in one full sweep.

How?

Press Vehicle.

The market rises

when media drops by.

The market depends

on the rich's whim.

We just have to use that.

- Excuse me.

- How can we help?

Kyungsin Daily Newspaper

You are a newspaper reporter.

That orchard near here.

Could we meet the owner?

Everyone's asking

about that land.

That should do it.

Good.

Now we go for the kill.

Not at that price!

A newspaper publisher came by

and I rejected her $150 offer!

I'll pay $50 more!

Are you kidding me?

- I'm off.

- Please!

We made a mint, thanks.

Real estate business is something.

Korea's tiny.

Just watch.

There's no better way

to make money.

Here, 100 grand.

This is way too much.

Half is for the next job up front.

Next job?

There's an opportunity

in Apgujeong.

It's a risky job.

Take care of it.

If you can't pay your debt

your land will do!

Get in!

Isn't that Jang?

Yeah, it is.

Bring the pear orchard owner too.

Sir.

Goddammit...

YDP clan really did wonders

to our ugly duckling.

So it was YDP,

who took over this lot.

Madame Min, that fox

Let's forget Apgujeong.

Let's just do it.

What?

Jang'll draw blood

without a flinch.

It's delicious.

As a child, I envied children

on picnics with their parents

and eating this.

We could...

go on picnics too later.

Honey, I have to go.

Already?

Yang's coming in today.

Eat everything there

I'm off.

Yong-gi.

Been a while.

Good night.

Sun-hye.

Oh, hey!

Coming home now? It's late

I was at Jung-min's place.

Why didn't he

drop you off at home?

I wanted to get off here

I didn't tell him

about the laundromat.

It'll all come out eventually

I should delay the wedding.

Why?

We're so much in debt

and I don't want to burden him.

Just focus on the wedding

I'll take care of the debt.

Came for a show?!

Don't leave anything!

Burn everything.

Get house items too.

Get the furniture too.

Get everything out!

Sure.

Go back to your f***ing life!

Go away! I'll f***ing beat you!

Get everything out!

Burn everything they got!

There's nothing to watch!

Nice and toasty.

Motherfuckers!

- Son of a b*tch!

- Hot!

Come at me!

Son of a b*tch!

What the f***.

Jong-dae!

F***ing a**hole!

Here!

Listen carefully

I'll pay back every cent soon.

Don't you ever bother us again.

If you do,

I will kill you.

It's not Chang-bae's fault

I convinced him to

leave the factory with me

I'm sorry for deceiving you

all this time.

But now that you know

trust me with this

I'll rebuild our clan

and bring you back.

Why do you think

I left that life behind?

I was cuffed and stabbed

in front of my daughter.

How can I call myself a father?

Even if you're penniless

live like a human first.

That is all.

Boss.

Laundry will earn you $5 a day.

When'll we live like humans?

Welcome, boss!

Min's making us

do her dirty work.

- I got it.

- Where?

Certification of Property Transfer

It's the land madame Min wanted.

- Bag.

- Okay.

Sh*t...

We're f***ed they're Jang's boys.

Get him out.

Get up, a**hole!

Stand up!

Get him up.

Son of a b*tch.

On your feet.

Daddy!

Stop wasting our time

and spill it.

Did you kill

Daewong Hotel's Yoon?

I saw him a few times.

What?

Let me go

I'll look the other way.

You son of a b*tch!

Boss.

He's got Suh's support

why not let him go?

Okay, bring him out.

We got everything let's jet

I gotta see this through

see you back home.

- What the hell!

- I'll be back.

Where are you going, Jong-dae!

I'm breaking sweat thanks to him

I'll f***ing kill you all!

F***ing hell!

Motherfuckers!

F***ing a**hole!

F***!

Goddamn you!

Son of a b*tch!

Bro!

You Okay?

Jong-dae...

What the hell happened?!

Jong-dae...

Goddammit, Yong-gi!

Boss...

Madame Min knows some

powerful people,

whatever happens

it'll get solved quickly.

You disobedient bastard!

You have the balls to

utter those words?!

Go look for him!

- Boss!

- Jong-dae!

Shouldn't you go to the ER?

I'm fine, sir.

It's late please head back.

Even if you go back to MD

don't mention Jong-dae.

Of course not.

Good evening.

You and I can't catch a break.

About what?

How could you also be in a gang?

Be thankful that

I'm not a bank robber.

Same sh*t.

Why were they after you?

It's a feud over some land

don't worry.

Did you look for me?

I held memorial services for you

I thought you were dead.

F***ing bastard

you prayed for me to disappear.

Where the heck did you go?

I took the wrong bus.

When I came to

I was in Don Yang's group.

You should've came back.

Didn't want to die as a ragman

I wanted to be a made man

before I reached out.

Then?

Did you at least buy a house?

Buddy.

We've to stick together now

I manage all of their accounts

I'll give you half.

F*** you.

You haven't changed

I'm serious,

I'm not the same man.

Fine, I'll join you later

I'm with Mr. Kang right now.

Tread carefully.

A gangster's future depends on

whom he serves.

Ministry of Commerce

in Samseong,

city hall in Nonhyun,

and business district in Yeoksam.

Daechi is a riverside,

but it's designated for housing

so the profit will be huge.

Bulldoze the shanties there

and kick out all residents.

Yes, sir.

Any problems?

We need your help with a few

construction companies and Suh.

Suh Tae-gon?

He's buying up lands in Gangnam.

They're after the price hike...

Why does he have

hand in everything!

Please take care of him, sir.

You do it.

They're asking why Intelligence

is into real estate.

But this is in national interest.

We must win the election

in order to go after the commies.

Property Sale Contract.

Thanks to you

the financiers are happy.

You'll get the rest

when the market hikes.

Pay me with land.
