Everything's all set for the funeral.
All right.
Time to send my father off.
LEE JU-WOON (MICHAEL)
But, sir,
if you're running off to Russia,
shouldn't you change your name from Danny to something like, you know,
Alexander or Sergei?
Seriously? You think I'm fucking running away right now, you idiot?
I'm setting up a trap, obviously!
Don't worry. I have a plan.
Those motherfuckers.
They're not ready, not for what I have in store.
Where the hell is the captain? We've been waiting for 20 minutes.
How the fuck is he running so far behind?
-Go check it out! -Okay.
Well, get on it already! Get outta the damn car!
Right.
Hey.
Where's the captain of the King Star?
-The what? -The King Star. Where's the captain?
I got no idea.
The hell are you asking me for? Who does this guy think he is?
I'll call the captain, okay?
I'll call the captain!
Hey, hey, hey!
Gather around, everyone. We've got some newbies with us.
Let's snap a picture.
-Sounds good. -Gather around.
Hey, listen, you know what the elders say.
Pictures are all we have left, right? Come over here.
2007 KJ CONSTRUCTION SEOUL BRANCH WORKSHOP
Ugh, man, I ate way too much.
Hey, move your asses! Now! Let's go!
Hey, newbies, come on.
Stand in the middle. Come on.
All right, guys. Smile, okay?
Smile.
Come stand over here.
Come on.
-Ready? Scoot in a little closer. -All right!
All right, everyone, smile.
Here we go. One, two, three.
And who the hell are you?
You son of a bitch. Come here!
Who sent you, motherfucker?
Who was it?!
Fucker…
Son of a…
That's right, Seong-won isn't dying tonight!
Ah, shit. Those fuckers.
Ah, isn't this fun, you fucking bastards?
Those assholes. Now, where's my money?
Where is it? Those bastards. I'm not gonna die tonight!
These fuckers.
Sim Seong-won never dies, got that?
I'll kill every one of you if I have to!
Yang-sik!
-Yang-sik! -Oh, yes, sir! I'm here!
Whoa, what happened? What the-- You're bleeding!
Yeah! And where the hell have you been, asshole?
-Oh… -I got stabbed four times.
-Go get a towel or something. -Uh…
Son of a bitch…
I'll tell everyone that
Sim Seong-won died like a dog.
I'll see you in hell. Fuck you.
Fucking asshole.
Ah, shit.
Goddammit.
Asshole just wouldn't let go.
Sim Seong-won has been taken care of.
Good work.
I took care of Sim Seong-won.
All right, good work.
I guess that means we're almost at the finish line now.
Yes, sir, we're here. We're heading up now.
Wait.
Where is Cha Yeong-do?
So,
have you made up your mind yet?
Another one?
Sounds good.
Nam Gi-jun.
It's the end of the road.
See, I had planned to kill Cha Yeong-do first.
What a letdown.
Just like your brother.
It was you.
You're the one who killed Gi-seok.
I have
a vision that will transform the square.
Unlike my father's time when we had to stay in the shadows,
now, we can finally stand in the light.
I promise to make sure that no one dares to mess with us.
Now, it's true. I have little power as Lee Geum-son.
As prosecutor, however, I have all the power.
Oh, son of a bitch.
We've been…
spending too much time together.
It's not like we're family or something.
I've been meaning to ask you something.
Did you really know?
In the interrogation room, I mean.
You claimed you knew who I was working with.
Or were you just bluffing?
LEE GEUM-SON LEE JU-WOON
Those idiots. I told them to be careful. Jesus…
Do you
have any idea what's on those?
Lee Geum-son, that's what. Eh?
Lee Geum-son said
that he was planning to start a war between Juwoon and Bongsan.
That's what's on there.
He wants to take over everything.
The evidence is all there.
So, how about this?
You take out Lee Geum-son,
then you take over as the new ruler of the square.
Lee Ju-woon and Gu Bong-san did it, so then why not you? Yeah?
Come on, if you do, I'll have your back all the way.
Instead of cutting a deal…
you should ask for forgiveness.
Even when handed the opportunity, you still won't go for it.
Why? You think you're above it all?
Ah, shit.
You son of a bitch!
You wanna live?
Don't kill me.
Sorry for your loss.
Sir.
Mr. Choi.
I see.
Shimane couldn't get the job done.
And Cha Yeong-do?
He's dead too, huh?
That's fine, though. At least he's dead.
Why'd you do it?
What about you? Why'd you do it?
My father personally asked you to take over.
Why… Why did you refuse?
You know that everyone in the square would kill for that position.
Someone here's been going crazy
because they couldn't get it when they had the chance.
So why do you and your brother act as if it's just some meaningless title?
So that's why?
It was all over that?
Have something to eat before you go.
Probably the last meal you'll ever have. Might as well enjoy it.
Same goes for you.
You're the only one left.
Are you laying him to rest tomorrow?
Stay alive, at least until then…
then send him off.
JUWOON
I'm sorry it… took so long.
THE LATE NAM GI-SEOK
I'll see you soon.
Here.
LEE GEUM-SON
What's this?
Just hold onto it for now. I'll call you, all right?
One more thing.
Don't take this further.
Sir?
They're all gone now.
Chun-seok
and Byeong-ho.
You can't die now,
because you have to finish this.
It must've taken a lot of work to find this.
I see. So you found my overseas bank account
in order to blackmail me?
Hm?
Give us some privacy, would you?
Yes, sir.
JUWOON - BONGSAN M&A PROPOSAL
So you want me to stay out of Juwoon's merger with Bongsan?
Hm?
Since the position is open,
if we take it, it'll make things easier for both of us.
"We"?
Juwoon.
All right, let's say I go along with it.
What's in it for me?
You'll get… to keep your seat here.
There's nothing else, right? Just the merger with Bongsan?
Yes.
BUSINESS PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT
PARTY A: JUWOON INC. PARTY B: BONGSAN INC.
LEE GEUM-SON
LEE GEUM-SON RECORDING 18 MINUTES 48 SECONDS
We'll use Gu Jun-mo
and make him take out Nam Gi-seok.
Sir, that's Geum-son, the one I was telling you about.
Thank you all for coming.
I'm Lee Geum-son.
As you all know, we're here today
to celebrate the merger between the Juwoon and Bongsan companies.
As of today, I've been appointed
as the new CEO of Juwoon,
while still holding my position
at the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office.
Ugh, it's fucking freezing.
Here.
I did what you asked.
WHISTLEBLOWER TIP RE: PROSECUTOR'S MURDER SOLICITATION
You're sure this is okay, right?
If anything goes wrong, I was never part of this, okay?
EMAIL SENT
I plan to create a new system.
But don't worry, everyone.
I just want to try a different approach.
We'll keep all the members
and simply make a few tweaks to the system.
And that'll solve all the problems.
I'll make sure that every illegal benefit you've had
will no longer be considered illegal.
The square I envision
is a place where the boundary between the light and shadows
is broken down.
So that… that I, uh…
no, "we" are not held responsible.
I'm going to make that happen.
Listen, Mr. Lee.
The Prosecutor General went to great lengths to make this look good.
You're exaggerating.
So, what can we expect?
Let me ask you this instead.
What kind of positions are you looking for?
Uh, sir. Excuse me, sir.
Please take a look at this.
-What's that? -It's just a message. A message.
PROSECUTOR LEE BEHIND THE MURDER OF NAM GI-SEOK
What is it?
I enjoyed the food.
Uh, well, uh, we should go.
You're something else, my friend.
Breaking news update.
A sitting prosecutor has been implicated in a murder,
and it's expected to cause a major stir.
The prosecutor in question is Lee Geum-son from the Special Investigations Division
at the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office.
Let's listen to the recording.
We'll use Gu Jun-mo
and make him take out Nam Gi-seok.
So I'll say this again.
I want both Juwoon and Bongsan.
The two of them, understand?
What the fuck is this?
The prosecution has decided to immediately remove Lee from his position
due to his involvement in the case,
and called for a swift and thorough…
You messed up big-time.
You talked all big about a new system and shit.
Is that what you wanted to show us?
What's the big deal?
Hey, come on. Don't you get it?
You're done.
All of this is over.
It's not over yet.
Bring everyone back, right now.
Goddamn idiot.
Oh…
Just so you know,
if you're thinking about taking us down with you, forget it.
It's already game over. Got it?
Fucking bastard.
What a freaking nutjob.
Fuck you.
Stop.
I'll take care of everything.
You should go.
Go where? This is where I should be. Go bring everyone back.
-Let go of me! -Knock it off, you fucking bastard!
All of us put our trust in you and came this far.
If you mess this up, I'm gonna…
You'd better go, sir.
But, sir…
take the stairs.
Oh.
Stop him.
You wanna come to me?
Or should I come to you?
Stop!
Let him through.
Get out, all of you.
Gi-jun.
Can't you please…
just stop here?
It's been a long time
since you called me like that.
As a friend…
and for old times' sake, I'm asking you.
Please stop.
Right. I didn't think so.
Let's go.
I'll show you the way.
I'm just… doing my job.
You understand, right?
It's fine.
Go finish what you're here to do.
Yeah.
I'll see you again.
So how does it feel sitting in that seat?
You did all this
just to get yourself there, right?
I'm not sure.
I've gotta say, it's not as great as I thought it'd be.
I've done all kinds of shit to get here.
If I'd known it'd be so pointless…
It's the same for everybody else.
They'll do whatever it takes to reach that position.
But when they finally do,
all they find is a sense of futility.
Because they can only go down from there.
Come on, that's what you think.
You see, I just liked fighting.
The fight itself.
The tension before it,
and the rush I felt when I landed a hit.
But what I really liked about it was what came after when I won.
The way my friends looked at me.
My father
must've had people looking at him like that all his life, right?
I envied that so much.
The respect. The admiration.
That…
is neither admiration nor respect.
It's fear.
And it becomes a burden.
The chairman…
probably didn't want you to carry the same burden
because he knew how painful it was.
Fuck. Enough talk about my dead father.
Now, I'm genuinely curious, because I don't really get it.
Why go this far?
Huh?
Why are you doing this now after all this time?
You gave up everything and just fucking ran.
Because I'm the reason it all started.
I'm the reason Gi-seok…
That's just the way it is in this business.
Once you get in…
it never ends until you die.
Don't do it.
For fuck's sake!
Really?! I told you not to do it! Huh?
Go ahead, shoot me.
My father was right.
He said
you people have nightmares every day.
Fuck, I was never cut out for any of this.
But for what it's worth…
I thank you… for listening.
Fuck!
You…
don't deserve to die like that.
Go.
Go ask for forgiveness.
Don't tell me what to do, you fucking bastard.
I wondered who'd come to this kind of place.
But it's actually nice here.
Hey.
Should I just come work with you here? I could quit everything.
Sure.
I don't mind.
So quit everything and join me.
Let's run this place together.
What? What's with you?
Jeez.
MERCY FOR NONE
