Does your mouth fix things?

You really don't have many

skills to brag about.

Come over here and look.

See if you can fix it.

Why should I?

You should learn how!

How long should I fix things

for you?

Now you even get tired

making repairs?

It's not that I'm tired.

I'm afraid that if I'm not around...

Oppa, why wouldn't you be

around?

What's the matter?

You're planning something

again, aren't you? Aren't you?

Move out of the way.

What are you doing?

I am going away for 2 years.

I am going away for 2 years.

Where are you going?

For 6 months to South America

to fish for octopus.

The other 6 months to Alaska

to fish for saury.

Two cycles like that.

I can earn at least $200,000.

I have skills. If I get into the

engine room, I can even earn more.

Jerk!

Damn it!

Oppa, are you even human?

What does that mean?

Do I have parents?

Brothers? Sisters? Relatives?

You know I don't have any

family.

Don't you know whom I've

relied on all this time?

I know. I know.

But I'm doing this to make you

happy.

Please understand my feelings.

Forget it.

I won't be deceived anymore.

If you want to go, then our

relationship is over.

Yeon Ju!

That damn girl.

This is for you.

What is this?

It's from Secretary Kim.

He said to be sure you read it.

What report would the

Secretary's Office send to you?

He said according to normal

procedures, he couldn't send it

directly to you.

So he sent it directly to me.

Is there a problem lately?

What do you mean?

Take a look.

I think it's important.

-=Practical Status of the

Hanbyul Unit #1=-

I told you not to worry.

This nuclear reactor thing,

as long as you keep pouring

cool water on it,

it can keep running 365 days

a year.

No.

For 10 years, 20 years,

it can keep turning without any

problems.

Isn't that why atomic energy is

so great?

It's the fire that never burns out.

It is science's greatest gift to

mankind.

The greatest gift?

Managed well and used

properly, it can be great.

But if it's like this,

it's not a gift, but a cause for

headaches.

What the heck are you talking

about?

A guy who doesn't know the

ABC's of atomic energy is

running that department.

Okay, thank you!

Nuclear reactors that aren't

fully prepared are being started.

Worst of all, a special law with

many problems was passed.

At such a time,

where is that bastard going

to stop?

No matter what,

they must keep turning properly.

Only by doing that will we all

survive.

Well... nothing is going to

happen.

Our employee...

is a specialist who has worked

in a nuclear power plant for over

20 years.

Don't worry. Let's not go

looking for trouble, okay?

Shut your mouth!

Don't get angry and just

listen to me.

Just going for 2 years, I can

make up all the money I lost!

Enough! Don't mention

it again!

That's right, Brother-in-law.

Don't go.

Sister-in-law.

Do you want to live here

forever?

What about Min Jae?

Are you going to insist he

work at the power plant?

No.

Then move to Seoul.

Let him study.

Send him to a good university.

That's what you should do!

Should Min Jae have to waste

his life in a place like this?

Before my brother passed away,

he entrusted Min Jae to me.

For the sake of Min Jae's future...

Who are you trying to fool?

Why use Min Jae as an excuse?

I'm not trying to fool anyone!

He's my one and only nephew.

Mom, you should also think

about your only grandson's future.

Let go!

Don't expect to go anywhere.

Don't even think about going

one step from my sight!

I want to go. I have to go.

That rotten jerk.

You refuse to get married and

just want to run away.

Don't you feel sorry for Yeon Ju?

Min Jae.

You hate it here too, right?

I really like it.

Why are you lying on your

stomach in here?

Go see your mother.

This room is crowded.

I like sleeping with you, Uncle.

Get off me, you brat.

Uncle, you can't go anywhere.

I don't want you to go away.

I'm surrounded by shackles!

Shackles!

Turn off the light.

=Emergency condition.=

=All Wolchon residents.=

Mother-in-law.

What?

If brother-in-law wants to go,

shouldn't you let him go?

Why?

Were you touched by what

he said?

No. It's not like that.

He really hates working at the

power plant.

I don't feel it's right to force

him to work there.

That place...

took away my husband and

my son.

I didn't want my remaining

son to work there, either.

I didn't want that for him.

So when he took his father's

compensation

and opened a business in the

city,

I never said a word against it.

I was praying in my heart

that his business went well and

he would never come back here.

Stop goofing off and get back

to work!

But look at him.

He went bankrupt and came

back penniless.

That pathetic jerk,

if he had to work in hell instead

of the power plant, he shouldn't

complain.

That's because the government

granted supply contracts to

entrepreneurs.

What are you talking about?

It was his own fault! Why make

excuses for him?

Oh right. We're out of soy sauce.

Mother-in-law, I'll go and buy

some soy sauce.

What about money?

That money was for his father's

life! His father's life!

Welcome.

How do you do things here?

I was told to be here early

this morning.

I'm sorry.

Didn't I tell you to get rid of

that report quickly?

Why is it still causing problems?

We have sent people to find

the person who wrote it.

Appropriate action has been

taken with relevant personnel.

Take action faster.

Are you looking for me?

Have you seen this report?

I'm not sure.

After I read this, it occurred to

me, Prime Minister, that a few

days ago in parliament,

After I read this, it occurred to

me, Prime Minister, that a few

days ago in parliament,

you were pushing a special law

for power generating facilities.

Construction of power plants is

not an unusual thing.

Mr. President, I heard you had

already seen and approved it.

I've never done anything like

that.

I'm sorry, but the bill has

already been passed by

parliament.

If there is a problem after

the audit,

then the right of refusal must

be corrected.

Isn't this what the

Administration and I should do?

What the Blue House should do,

is not waste energy on small

matters like this,

but focus their efforts to

invigorate the economy.

Talent Development Institute?

Yes.

Headquarters contacted me

about this transfer.

You have to go to headquarters

and see.

What is the reason?

You've been working on the

front line here for a long time.

It's time to take a step back.

Isn't working to cultivate talent

also another way of caring?

So it is. So it is. Caring.

Thanks to you, several secretaries

also lost their jobs.

Why would you give up a good

job to go sit in a boat?

Plus, you're wasting 2 years.

Should I...

for the sake of this damn power

plant,

devote all of my abilities?

I was dragged here by force,

you know.

I was dragged here by force,

you know.

You're like this because of what

happened to your father and
