Into the Ring (2020): Season 1, Episode 7 - Episode #1.7 - full transcript
- What's this?
- Aren't they golf balls, right?
What on earth...
Numerous complaints were lodged,
but none of them
seemed to reach you,
so I prepared an event where
you can experience things yourself.
In private,
you ignore complaints from
an elderly who lives alone,
and in public,
you bring the elderly on a
podium to wash their feet.
Is that the stupid kind
of active service that...
Mawon-gu Office is into?
- Oh, no.
- What's she doing?
Is she crazy?
Oh, dear!
Gosh.
A bull's-eye.
My next target...
is you, chief.
My gosh.
I told you that...
this is a simple event
to experience things.
I trust that you, Chief Won,
will make a wise decision.
I look forward to it.
I was so scared.
My goodness...
Chief.
I told you already that she's
the worst kind of lunatic.
A few days ago, she
came to the driving range.
I talked some
sense into her, but...
If you knew she
was causing trouble,
you should've reported to me!
Even if I had
reported it to you,
we wouldn't have been able
to prevent today's humiliation.
Talk of what happened today
must never leave this building.
Keep everyone silent.
I will.
My gosh.
Chief Won.
What is it?
Ms. Goo is here.
So this is what the
chief's office looks like.
It's you, isn't it? It's you.
- What is me?
- You know what I mean.
Yesterday, you came to me...
Six o'clock.
That is where it should be.
That's there too.
What do you want?
Well, you see...
A friend of mine is having a
very hard time with a complaint.
You worked at the service
center for a long time.
Do you think there's
anything we can do?
I worked at the service
center since my very first day.
There's this thing
about complaints.
Rather than a person
making 100 of them,
1 complaint from 100
individuals is much more effective.
A resident petition...
is often a precursor to
a gathering or a protest.
Our chief...
paid dearly for ignoring
the Sammart protests.
Since then, Chief Won has
been paying a lot of attention.
These days, if you go online,
you can get 100 filed in no time.
You don't think that Se Ra...
will go and do exactly
as I suggested?
I guess that by now,
they'll be talking about it.
What?
Ms. Goo. You have
an impressive talent...
at shocking other people.
It's good to have any talent.
You're so busy, so I
arranged an event...
I could report you to
the police right now.
Then I'll speak
fast before you do.
The elderly lady isn't the only
one who complained about...
the Jeongeui-dong driving range.
I linked the resident petition
to the community website.
Let's do this lawfully
and impartially.
Still, Gong Myung,
see you tomorrow at six o'clock.
Jeongeui High School,
institutions, apartment complexes...
all complained about the
driving range's late hours.
The bright searchlights
and the noise...
Take a look at this.
This is the online
resident petition.
I said I'd sort this out,
and the students' parents
are all backing me up.
What on earth is
it that you want?
One, financial
compensation and aid...
for the injured.
Two, a meeting to
discuss light and...
noise pollution guidelines.
Three, and this
is most important.
A serious and sincere apology
from Mawon-gu Office's...
person in charge.
The person in charge?
Very well. I'll have the
head of the service center...
No.
You're the person in
charge of Mawon-gu Office.
The boss should take
responsibility for everything,
not the minion.
How did it go?
Well?
She'll make an announcement
before lunch tomorrow.
Gosh, walking to her office felt
like going to a slaughterhouse.
Did you tell her properly?
Did you not forget your
lines and talk gibberish?
Do you trust your brains
and memorize everything?
But I...
write everything down too.
Is there any way to
expel Goo Se Ra?
My goodness.
Doing that when people are
signing a petition will backfire.
Don't burn down a house
trying to get rid of a bedbug.
That darn bedbug.
I really want to kill it, even if it
means burning down my house.
I see.
Thanks.
You know what? What's
your take on this, Mr. Kim?
Why don't you use your
authority as the chief and cancel...
the driving range's permit?
That wasn't even one of the
demands from Goo Se Ra.
Do you think the owner of the
driving range wouldn't object?
What if you meet with
the owner and cut a deal...
before you cancel the permit?
Jeongeui-dong is aiming
to become a smart city.
So if you promise to
designate the area...
as a commercial area
through the urban planning,
I'm sure the owner
will be satisfied.
You will not lose
voters or trust.
I believe this is
the best option.
Of course, you can highlight...
the fact that you're
following up on your pledge.
Your humble beginning will show.
I will use my
authority as the chief...
and plan to cancel the
permit of the driving range...
in Jeongeui-dong.
Moreover, I will make
sure to compensate...
the victims financially
and follow the principles.
I will do my best to take a
closer look at this matter.
I am very glad that you're
making a fast recovery.
My gosh. You came
all the way here.
I don't know what to say.
I'm sure you will
feel better soon.
- Thank you.
- Sure.
- Could you look over here?
- Thank you. Okay.
In 1, 2, 3.
Let me take one more.
In 1, 2, 3.
Thank you.
- I will come and visit you again.
- Sure.
Gosh, you're president material.
Goodbye.
Hey.
Carry the fruit basket
and the helmet for me.
- Let's go, ma'am.
- Let's go.
- Let's get them.
- She wants us to bring them.
Put your arm around me.
Be careful.
Bye.
- Take it.
- I don't say no to freebies.
Thank you.
It's a team dinner. It's
a team dinner at last!
Thank you.
Thank you so much!
Like this?
My gosh. She could
cause so much trouble.
That's not what
we do these days.
Do you know me?
If Mr. Kim sees us,
he'll get the wrong idea.
Should I call him?
Hey, that's my phone.
He's not answering.
He didn't answer my calls
even when we were dating.
There's no way he'd answer
it now that we're broken up.
You're broken up?
Is the phone broken?
Gosh, come on.
My gosh, no.
- Excuse me.
- Sure.
By any chance, did your
boyfriend ask you to do this?
Did he ask you to
help Chairman Cho...
by diverting people?
Gosh.
I shouldn't be sorry.
I didn't know because
she didn't tell me.
Why did they break up?
A family ought to have at
least one meal a day together.
Everyone has
their own biorhythm.
This isn't about your
biorhythm. You're just hungover.
Last night, we were celebrating
for settling the complaint.
In other words, we were
having a team dinner.
This time, I totally
scored a big one.
I wonder where she
learned to bluff like that.
- It's you.
- She takes after you.
- It's you.
- You.
You don't want
to take any credit.
What?
By the way, why are you working
out for three hours at night?
Well, I've been
running here and there.
Run?
It's for a triathlon.
Honey.
You might rupture your nerves!
Is there...
a cash prize?
If my nerves pop, it's not a
cash prize. It's a medical fee.
Se Ra.
You're getting paid
on the 20th, right?
You're like a loan shark.
Why are you looking at
me with disapproving eyes?
I was just looking at my
money-grabbing daughter.
Well, I met up with one
of my old colleagues.
He said he has
to file a complaint.
He knew that you were
a district representative.
An old colleague from where?
It was a long time ago when I
was working at Mawon-gu Office.
I guess he was treated unfairly.
Why don't you meet with
him and listen to his story?
If he was treated unfairly,
he should go to a lawyer, a
counselor, or a fortune-teller.
However, I'll take his case.
Let me handle it.
Don't forget. I'm your
daughter, Goo Se Ra.
I'm also known as
Garden Tiger Moth.
Gosh.
Representative Yang Nae Sung,
what on earth were you up to?
Were you a middle-aged
table tennis master?
Chief Won didn't
call you afterward?
No, she didn't.
Isn't that suspicious?
She went out of her way...
to cancel the permit
by using her authority.
I must have persuaded her
when I was talking to her...
1-on-1 in her office.
After you guys broke up,
did Mr. Kim call you?
He didn't.
Did I...
tell you about
Mr. Kim yesterday?
You said that he didn't answer
your calls when you were dating.
So he wouldn't answer your
call now that you're broken up.
You took my phone
and called him.
Well, you pressed his
number without any hesitation.
No.
Hey.
Hurry.
Yes. Well, I called you
yesterday by accident.
It was a mistake. Yes.
Yes.
Darn it.
You renewed your
contract each year,
but you received a
notice of dismissal...
a week before your
contract term ended?
9 out of 15 guards
in total, right?
Yes. The office says
there's no problem legally.
I heard the residents complained
that we were being overpaid.
But what's strange is...
What is it?
The thing is,
all nine of us are
over 63 years old.
Not 60, 65, but 63?
You came to the right place.
I happen to be an expert...
at finding and protecting
jobs, and unemployment issues.
I see.
You are in good hands, sir.
I see. Can I go now?
- Yes.
- Thank you.
Han Bi, please see him out.
May I go now?
Yes.
I'll be waiting for
your call. Thank you.
An expert at protecting jobs
and unemployment issues?
Says who?
Myself.
And...
of course you guys.
Thanks for the glasses.
Isn't that room so spacious?
Yes.
Come and look
at the living room.
It's perfect for
a family of three.
You look just like your mom.
They all say that.
That's not true.
Let's have a talk later.
This is a new apartment,
and it's perfect for raising kids.
How is the office
for guards operated?
Since families with kids
receive so many parcels.
Do you use unmanned
parcel lockers?
Well, we held a vote
last year about that...
but the young residents
were opposed to it.
Shall we go to see the
next house? Follow me.
- Please come this way.
- Okay.
Ms. Goo provided...
the statement of maintenance
fees for three nearby apartments,
and Mr. Kim provided the
statement of maintenance fees...
for Jayu-dong Apartment.
As you can see,
the personnel expenses
for four apartments...
are precisely similar.
This means that the residents
of Jayu-dong Apartment...
did not pay excessive fees...
in order to employ their guards.
And they said the residents voted
for an unmanned parcel locker...
last year, but the young
residents were opposed to it.
That means the residents
also want an office for guards.
But the thing is,
within Jayu-dong Apartment's
statement of maintenance fees,
we discovered a word...
that wasn't in the statements
of other apartments.
That is...
"Employment
stability support fund"?
You can just do your work
and stay quiet as you've been.
Why do you keep poking
around here and there?
But the thing is...
Excuse me, why don't you
drink this before we talk?
Who are you?
Oh, I'm District
Representative Goo Se Ra...
of Mawon-gu District Assembly.
I see.
Your contract won't
even expire any time soon.
Why do you keep
inciting the other workers?
They are all still young.
Some of them even have
children who go to school.
If they're suddenly fired...
Let's make one thing clear.
They're not being fired.
Their contract has just expired.
Do you want to
lose your job too?
Excuse me, sir.
You received an employment
stability support fund...
all this time.
But if you tell the
guards to quit now,
do you mean you'll just
use those funds for yourself?
Is this area under
your jurisdiction?
No.
Then why are you
getting involved?
You people are the ones
who made an ordinance bill...
but suddenly cut our
budgets. Isn't it all your fault?
What if I get those funds back?
What if the budget
is reallocated?
Are you not going
to fire those people?
I just did my job.
I hate leaving things messy.
What's with the mood in here?
I'm not even getting
paid enough already.
I better look for a new job.
What about me? I
have kids to raise.
But the district
representatives said...
they'll take a
voluntarily pay-cut.
How is that possible?
They all have
other jobs, buildings,
and businesses besides this.
Their generosity
comes from their wealth.
Oh, except for one
person. Ms. Goo.
I bet her bank balance
is lower than us.
You're right.
I won't have enough money for
her green vegetable juice now.
Although I'm not
even drinking it now.
Me neither.
Do you have any
loans or anything?
Will you be okay?
Yes, I'll be okay
for the time being.
That's impressive.
Mr. Impressive, you
received an email.
Good day.
- Goodbye.
- Bye.
I need you to do some
urgent research for me.
What is it?
I sent the material you
requested. Please check.
Oh, okay.
When I read your email,
it reminded me of the old days.
The old days?
I'm working in the
council secretariat,
but it felt like I was
at the service center.
I guess my situation
hasn't changed that much.
No, it's become worse.
I'm going to hang up if
you keep annoying me.
Garden Tiger Moth.
I felt disappointed...
because you didn't write
"From Garden Tiger Moth"...
in the end.
Anyhow, I just did my job.
Since you requested
for some material.
Hello?
Why is he getting angry?
Why is he disappointed?
He used to hate it.
Let's see how well
he did his research.
"Shim-Jang-Si"? Darn it.
Goodness, they lose all
the time on sports festival,
but we still have to
make these like slaves.
It's not too late. Why don't
we go on the internet...
Why don't we just buy
things on the internet?
If Shim-Jang-Si finds
out, they'll throw a fit.
Their only job is to
organize this sports festival.
And Mawon-gu is
hosting it this year.
This feels so shameful.
You'll see what's
really shameful...
the moment you
open up those boxes.
My gosh. Why am I...
Did you just see that?
No.
What?
- Mawon-gu!
- Number one!
- Mawon-gu!
- Number one!
Mawon-gu!
Mawon-gu!
Hey.
Why aren't you doing your jobs?
Is this the World Cup or what...
You need to
arbitrate this issue.
Or reallocate the support funds.
Why should we?
You created the ordinance.
That's how they got the funds.
Creating the ordinance.
That's the extent of our duty.
That's right.
We can't suppress
the free will...
of the apartment's
management office.
- No.
- Right.
Firing people when they want...
isn't exactly free will.
Even a TV comes with
a one-year warranty.
What kind of ordinance
doesn't last even a year?
- What did you say?
- How dare you say that?
- We did our job!
- How dare you?
- What do you know?
- You're clueless!
- I thought better of you!
- What's your problem?
You can't say that to us!
- We did good!
- We meant well!
Don't you look down on us!
- Don't speak to elders like that!
- You're so rude!
Could you do this?
- Darn you!
- Darn you!
Darn it.
I apologize for last time.
When we voted about
the municipal bonds.
I really wanted to get paid.
Even after you persuaded
me that very morning.
You voted yes even
after that pep talk.
I asked to see both
representatives...
because I need your help.
I plan to reinstate some of
the social welfare budget...
through the revised
supplementary budget vote.
That includes the employment
stability support fund...
that Ms. Goo is
currently interested in.
Then my vote could help...
The vote will be
over and done with...
before your suspension's over.
Even within the Dagachi
Progressive Party,
three representatives
are against the idea.
While I try to persuade them,
do you think you
could get three votes...
from the Aeguk
Conservative Party?
I'd like you to think about it.
Sure.
That leaves Shim-Jang-Si,
three men that move as one.
I'll arrange a meeting after
tomorrow's sports festival.
Not like today.
Okay.
Does it have to be the three
guys I went up against today?
And why do I have to
work with Yoon Hee Su?
Darn it.
Hey.
You met Shim-Jang-Si
at work today.
Does it have something to do with
the information you asked me for?
It was about this and that.
You came here to ask me that?
Well, no, I wasn't that curious.
Here.
You should get your parents
something on your first payday.
Say you bought it.
Thank you!
Don't get the wrong idea.
They weren't gifts for me.
He must be struggling
with a smaller pay.
What?
Of all the things
you bought for us,
I like this the most.
I'm glad you are of
some use sometimes.
But the size is...
To be honest, the color too...
I told you we should keep quiet.
- When did you say that?
- You said red suits me.
- I did not.
- Look what you did.
He has such terrible taste.
How far did I get?
Shim-Jang-Si?
"They want to win the sports
festival more than unify Korea."
"The three idiots."
"They live a whole
year for this day alone."
What?
Who buys parents' thermal
underwear on their first payday?
You buy food or give them cash.
Did you buy thermal underwear?
Well, I thought that...
That's not the
problem right now.
Darn it.
Why do we even host
a lame sports festival?
The 2020 annual Mawon-gu...
and Hanul-gu sports festival.
To build friendship between
the two neighboring communities,
and to strengthen our bond,
we have been holding
this event for 10 years now.
I hope this marks a day of...
communication and
working in harmony.
Let's play fair.
Let's play fair.
Next is the entrance ceremony.
Mawon-gu's representatives
are accompanied by...
their mascot Marong.
What a lovely sight.
Goo Se Ra is here. Darn it.
What an embarrassment.
At the revised supplementary
budget vote including the support fund,
vote yes.
I thought about it,
and it's your ordinance,
so you need to fix it.
Not for free, though.
The sports festival. We can win.
The current record of the past
nine sports festivals is 9-to-0.
We can't let that
become 10-to-0.
Just the thought that you
can bargain with us over that...
- Right.
- How will we win?
I run 100m in 13 seconds.
I can break a lot of things.
Anything with a
ball? I'm good at it.
We saw how good
you are with balls...
at the elderly
feet-washing event.
That's right. Say yes.
- Mawon, Mawon, let's go!
- Mawon, Mawon, let's go!
We'll begin the match.
Win! Win!
It looks like Ms. Goo
will pester us for a while.
Then let's do this.
I'll vote yes if Mawon-gu wins.
- Pardon?
- Let's just see...
if she digs herself
into yet another hole.
The ball is coming.
- Good luck!
- It's mine!
The ground is slippery!
You're doing so well!
3-to-0, Hanul-gu wins.
- Why are we so bad?
- Hanul-gu!
You're doing so well!
If the supplementary
budget is passed...
and the complaint for
Jayu-dong Apartment is solved,
the three of us,
just the three of us
should take the credit.
Just like when the chief took
credit for the golf driving range.
Okay?
- Okay?
- Okay?
Okay. You made an
exceptional choice.
What is this nonsense?
There are still four
games left, so we can do it.
The district representatives
aren't the only players.
We can make the young
employees of the secretariat play too.
Ms. Goo.
They agreed to vote yes...
if we win this sports festival?
Don't you think this
is a bit too naive?
I'll set up a meeting with
them some other time.
We can explain the need
for a supplementary budget...
and persuade them...
Naive, my foot.
Explaining and persuading
won't work on them.
We've already
reached an agreement,
so please cooperate.
Okay?
But...
Goodness.
You threw that quite hard.
Was that a mistake?
It wasn't a mistake. I
don't make mistakes.
Me neither.
Hey. You're on the same side!
- Throw it at the opponent!
- My goodness.
What on earth?
I asked for your cooperation.
We must win.
- Okay, we have the ball.
- Okay.
Let's go! Grab
the ball. Throw it!
Let's attack.
Hey, here!
Hey! Seo Gong Myung!
Me! Me.
Here.
- Here.
- Give it to me.
Wait, you're passing it again?
- You can do it!
- Let's go!
Come on, let's go!
Throw it!
Let's go!
The score is 2:1.
Mawon-gu wins!
Why did you pass it to
Ms. Yoon instead of me?
I'm letting it slide since
we won dodge ball.
Why do you want to win so much?
Just cooperate. It involves
some important business.
We need to win
this sports festival...
to get three votes for
the supplementary budget.
What?
Don't tell me you cut a
deal with Shim-Jang-Si...
Gong Myung, you're pretty keen.
You understand even if
I don't spell it out for you.
We must win at all costs.
We'll win and recover
the budgets that were cut...
and solve the complaint as well.
Complaint? Another one?
Don't you remember last time?
We were quite
impressive as a team.
A team?
Hey. You should try harder
if you want to persuade me.
Please side with me.
Follow your heart and
prove you aren't wrong.
Here, this is my favorite.
Ms. Goo is playing so hard...
in your place.
She's not playing in my place.
We're just on the same
side with similar minds.
A person's mind changes
easily depending on one's...
position and situation.
That means Ms. Goo
isn't all that different.
With high expectations
comes great disappointment.
You should know well.
You've already experienced it.
- He has arrived.
- Okay.
Let's go.
- Mawon!
- Hanul!
- Mawon!
- Mawon!
Pull harder!
Mawon! Mawon! Mawon!
- Pull harder! Pull!
- Mawon!
- Mawon!
- Mawon!
Mawon!
Mawon!
- Mawon!
- Hanul!
- Mawon!
- Hanul!
Mawon!
- Mawon!
- Mawon!
- Look!
- It's Assemblyman Choi!
- Assemblyman Choi!
- Hurry!
It's Assemblyman Choi!
- We won!
- Yes!
- Hello.
- Hello, sir.
- Hello.
- Welcome, sir.
Move over.
Darn.
You said you already
reached an agreement.
What use is it if you
make a good team?
It's important to make
connections with assemblymen.
What? Assemblymen?
The assemblyman's visit is
the highlight of today's event.
- Welcome.
- That is...
Assemblyman Choi Goo Pal
of Aeguk Conservative Party.
- You don't even know that?
- Whatever.
I don't care who he is.
Gosh.
1, 2, 3, and me.
We can run 100m in
13 seconds. Let's do it.
I think it took me 23 seconds
to run 100m in high school.
What about you?
- I just walked.
- Oh.
What?
You better do a good job.
I'm just running since I'm
one of the younger members.
- I'm not interested at all.
- Just listen to me and run.
You're the one who
made a reckless deal.
Why are you asking me
to take care of your mess?
It's time for the last game
of today's sports festival.
The last highlight of
today is a relay race.
The current score
is 2:2, and we're tied.
The winning team will be
decided by this last game.
Get ready!
Run!
Go!
Run faster!
Man, we're doomed.
Run!
Darn!
It's time to announce
today's winner.
Congratulations,
Mawon-gu District Assembly!
Congratulations!
Mawon-gu! Mawon-gu!
- Mawon!
- Mawon!
- Mawon!
- Mawon!
- Mawon!
- Mawon!
- Mawon!
- Mawon!
Let me grill the meat.
- No, let me.
- No, I'll do it. I'm better at it.
Let me pour you a drink.
- To Mawon-gu.
- Cheers. Cheers.
A team dinner.
Ms. Goo, that's my seat.
First come, first served.
I don't want to sit at the end.
Mr. Kim, sit over here.
Isn't this quite a refreshing
seating arrangement?
A representative, a secretary,
and two members of staff.
You two are so dull-witted.
Let's have some meat cooked
for us by a representative.
You don't like to
be spoiled, do you?
I'm not bad at this.
Is there something down there?
Here you go.
This is for you.
Have some meat.
- Thank you.
- The meat here is very good.
It's so nice with vegetables.
- Perilla leaves?
- That works too.
- I ate it all.
- More perilla leaves, please.
Let me pour you a drink.
Oh, yes. Thank you.
Here you go.
We should drink too.
Let's drink.
Oh, hello. Come on inside.
Hello.
Are you doing okay?
Yes.
Say hello to district
representative Ms. Goo Se Ra.
The Ms. Goo I heard
about? It's nice to meet you.
Hello.
I won't take too
much of your time.
The wrongful dismissal
you told me about.
I think it'll get sorted out.
I dropped by to
tell you not to worry.
Thank you a lot.
I'm so relieved.
You're young and sprightly,
and very thorough with
your work. Thank you.
Oh, I'm not that good.
What is it?
Come on.
Whose idea was this?
It was my idea, of course.
Three times a day every day,
I'll send a photo to Shim-Jang-Si.
We know their history
and you're using it like this?
Hey. A person must learn
from their experiences.
There's a learning curve.
I don't believe the
representatives signed that thing.
I said, "I don't trust your
word, so write me something."
I know that...
things like this have
a 1,000 percent effect.
You could get
into trouble for this.
Who would scold me when
even my parents ignore me?
Good for you.
You're mad, Se Ra. You
still have him saved like this?
Why is he calling?
You can't tease three men
your father's age with a memo.
And not three times a day.
The memo is...
a simple contract between
me and the three gentlemen.
What would happen to...
the reputation as an
assembly if word got out that...
you traded three votes
with a sports festival victory?
I'm not sure about
our reputation,
but I just did my job.
There's a complaint
that I promised to solve.
Why work so hard for no money?
Are you going to run in
next year's regional election?
Gosh, no, I really won't.
I decided not to.
Min Jae will take my place.
This isn't something
I should hear.
Tell him yourself.
Don't torture him with hope.
When you're really, honestly
sure you can keep the promise.
You made a promise before
the by-election and didn't keep it.
Every event...
comes with variables.
When I went to Samcheonpo...
on hearing that Min
Jae's father had died,
I saw a young woman serve food
as if she were a family member.
I didn't think I'd meet her
again as a district representative.
Sir.
How did you manage to come?
I'll take you home.
It's late.
It's the first time
I'm asking this.
Do you regret it?
Quitting being a civil servant.
Giving up your career
to serve Chairman Cho.
Don't you regret
waiting indefinitely,
hoping that one day
he'll give you a chance?
Do you have regrets?
I asked you first.
You answer first.
I packed some marinated
beef ribs and side dishes.
Your address is personal info,
so I asked you to come over.
It's not because I can't
be bothered to visit you.
But...
I buy my food at the same place.
Million Dollars Side Dishes.
The food tastes different
depending on who bought it.
And also,
thanks for the
thermal underwear.
I appreciate it.
Se Ra doesn't get paid.
Who else would know
that and look out for her?
It had to be you, Gong Myung.
Put that into the fridge
as soon as you get home.
- I will.
- See you.
Thank you.
Go ahead.
- Go on inside.
- I will. Go on home.
I thought about it a
lot. About that time.
I don't regret that.
I do regret...
leaving you and heading off.
It's so strange.
You say that now
as if it's nothing,
and I feel nothing as I hear it.
I don't feel anything.
- Se Ra.
- Leave.
Leave.
Let's talk next time.
Talk about what?
My gosh.
Okay, so... I met Min
Jae on my way back.
We crossed paths.
So he brought me home.
Did he?
You saw your ex-boyfriend.
Yes.
What about you?
Your mom asked me to come by.
See you.
Why...
"Min Jae"?
I'd like a visitor's pass.
The name is Goo Se Ra.
- Did you request one?
- Of course I did.
I spoke to you in person.
Here you go.
I can't say that Chairman
Cho asked to see me.
Yes, yes.
It all ends today.
I understand.
Yes.
Hello.
You're still suspended.
You can't attend the meeting.
That's why today I'm a visitor.
Don't worry about the vote.
I persuaded three members
from the other party,
and they promised
to vote in our favor.
They voted against
issuing municipal bonds...
and now demand a
supplementary budget!
Dagachi Progressive
Party must repent!
- Repent! Repent!
- Repent! Repent!
The Dagachi Progressive Party...
must change how they
apply trickeries to do politics!
- Change!
- My gosh.
- Repent! Repent!
- Please stop.
- Who must repent?
- Sirs.
- Now they make demands?
- Sirs.
Repent!
- Repent! Repent!
- Repent! Repent!
- Repent!
- Repent!
- Repent! Repent!
- Will you stop this?
Return to your seats!
Will you calm down?
- Calm down.
- Change your ways!
Do you not hear me?
- Repent!
- Calm down!
Leave me alone!
Hey, hey.
Darn it.
Run! Run!
Mawon! Mawon!
Mawon!
Mawon! Mawon!
The chairman's office has
been vacant for a long time.
We can't keep it vacant.
Chairman Go Dong Chan and
Vice Chairperson Yoon Hee Su.
Chairperson Yoon Hee Su and
Vice Chairman Go Dong Chan.
- Are you serious?
- Why wouldn't I be?
- My sincerity...
- Do you think this is enough?
If you want my vote, give
me what you give the others.
Run for chairman.
If you get the title, what
happened won't happen again.
Goo Se Ra is an ideal candidate?
We just need to assign her a
trainer who knows what we want.
The former chairman's
secretary will do that for us.
- Aren't they golf balls, right?
What on earth...
Numerous complaints were lodged,
but none of them
seemed to reach you,
so I prepared an event where
you can experience things yourself.
In private,
you ignore complaints from
an elderly who lives alone,
and in public,
you bring the elderly on a
podium to wash their feet.
Is that the stupid kind
of active service that...
Mawon-gu Office is into?
- Oh, no.
- What's she doing?
Is she crazy?
Oh, dear!
Gosh.
A bull's-eye.
My next target...
is you, chief.
My gosh.
I told you that...
this is a simple event
to experience things.
I trust that you, Chief Won,
will make a wise decision.
I look forward to it.
I was so scared.
My goodness...
Chief.
I told you already that she's
the worst kind of lunatic.
A few days ago, she
came to the driving range.
I talked some
sense into her, but...
If you knew she
was causing trouble,
you should've reported to me!
Even if I had
reported it to you,
we wouldn't have been able
to prevent today's humiliation.
Talk of what happened today
must never leave this building.
Keep everyone silent.
I will.
My gosh.
Chief Won.
What is it?
Ms. Goo is here.
So this is what the
chief's office looks like.
It's you, isn't it? It's you.
- What is me?
- You know what I mean.
Yesterday, you came to me...
Six o'clock.
That is where it should be.
That's there too.
What do you want?
Well, you see...
A friend of mine is having a
very hard time with a complaint.
You worked at the service
center for a long time.
Do you think there's
anything we can do?
I worked at the service
center since my very first day.
There's this thing
about complaints.
Rather than a person
making 100 of them,
1 complaint from 100
individuals is much more effective.
A resident petition...
is often a precursor to
a gathering or a protest.
Our chief...
paid dearly for ignoring
the Sammart protests.
Since then, Chief Won has
been paying a lot of attention.
These days, if you go online,
you can get 100 filed in no time.
You don't think that Se Ra...
will go and do exactly
as I suggested?
I guess that by now,
they'll be talking about it.
What?
Ms. Goo. You have
an impressive talent...
at shocking other people.
It's good to have any talent.
You're so busy, so I
arranged an event...
I could report you to
the police right now.
Then I'll speak
fast before you do.
The elderly lady isn't the only
one who complained about...
the Jeongeui-dong driving range.
I linked the resident petition
to the community website.
Let's do this lawfully
and impartially.
Still, Gong Myung,
see you tomorrow at six o'clock.
Jeongeui High School,
institutions, apartment complexes...
all complained about the
driving range's late hours.
The bright searchlights
and the noise...
Take a look at this.
This is the online
resident petition.
I said I'd sort this out,
and the students' parents
are all backing me up.
What on earth is
it that you want?
One, financial
compensation and aid...
for the injured.
Two, a meeting to
discuss light and...
noise pollution guidelines.
Three, and this
is most important.
A serious and sincere apology
from Mawon-gu Office's...
person in charge.
The person in charge?
Very well. I'll have the
head of the service center...
No.
You're the person in
charge of Mawon-gu Office.
The boss should take
responsibility for everything,
not the minion.
How did it go?
Well?
She'll make an announcement
before lunch tomorrow.
Gosh, walking to her office felt
like going to a slaughterhouse.
Did you tell her properly?
Did you not forget your
lines and talk gibberish?
Do you trust your brains
and memorize everything?
But I...
write everything down too.
Is there any way to
expel Goo Se Ra?
My goodness.
Doing that when people are
signing a petition will backfire.
Don't burn down a house
trying to get rid of a bedbug.
That darn bedbug.
I really want to kill it, even if it
means burning down my house.
I see.
Thanks.
You know what? What's
your take on this, Mr. Kim?
Why don't you use your
authority as the chief and cancel...
the driving range's permit?
That wasn't even one of the
demands from Goo Se Ra.
Do you think the owner of the
driving range wouldn't object?
What if you meet with
the owner and cut a deal...
before you cancel the permit?
Jeongeui-dong is aiming
to become a smart city.
So if you promise to
designate the area...
as a commercial area
through the urban planning,
I'm sure the owner
will be satisfied.
You will not lose
voters or trust.
I believe this is
the best option.
Of course, you can highlight...
the fact that you're
following up on your pledge.
Your humble beginning will show.
I will use my
authority as the chief...
and plan to cancel the
permit of the driving range...
in Jeongeui-dong.
Moreover, I will make
sure to compensate...
the victims financially
and follow the principles.
I will do my best to take a
closer look at this matter.
I am very glad that you're
making a fast recovery.
My gosh. You came
all the way here.
I don't know what to say.
I'm sure you will
feel better soon.
- Thank you.
- Sure.
- Could you look over here?
- Thank you. Okay.
In 1, 2, 3.
Let me take one more.
In 1, 2, 3.
Thank you.
- I will come and visit you again.
- Sure.
Gosh, you're president material.
Goodbye.
Hey.
Carry the fruit basket
and the helmet for me.
- Let's go, ma'am.
- Let's go.
- Let's get them.
- She wants us to bring them.
Put your arm around me.
Be careful.
Bye.
- Take it.
- I don't say no to freebies.
Thank you.
It's a team dinner. It's
a team dinner at last!
Thank you.
Thank you so much!
Like this?
My gosh. She could
cause so much trouble.
That's not what
we do these days.
Do you know me?
If Mr. Kim sees us,
he'll get the wrong idea.
Should I call him?
Hey, that's my phone.
He's not answering.
He didn't answer my calls
even when we were dating.
There's no way he'd answer
it now that we're broken up.
You're broken up?
Is the phone broken?
Gosh, come on.
My gosh, no.
- Excuse me.
- Sure.
By any chance, did your
boyfriend ask you to do this?
Did he ask you to
help Chairman Cho...
by diverting people?
Gosh.
I shouldn't be sorry.
I didn't know because
she didn't tell me.
Why did they break up?
A family ought to have at
least one meal a day together.
Everyone has
their own biorhythm.
This isn't about your
biorhythm. You're just hungover.
Last night, we were celebrating
for settling the complaint.
In other words, we were
having a team dinner.
This time, I totally
scored a big one.
I wonder where she
learned to bluff like that.
- It's you.
- She takes after you.
- It's you.
- You.
You don't want
to take any credit.
What?
By the way, why are you working
out for three hours at night?
Well, I've been
running here and there.
Run?
It's for a triathlon.
Honey.
You might rupture your nerves!
Is there...
a cash prize?
If my nerves pop, it's not a
cash prize. It's a medical fee.
Se Ra.
You're getting paid
on the 20th, right?
You're like a loan shark.
Why are you looking at
me with disapproving eyes?
I was just looking at my
money-grabbing daughter.
Well, I met up with one
of my old colleagues.
He said he has
to file a complaint.
He knew that you were
a district representative.
An old colleague from where?
It was a long time ago when I
was working at Mawon-gu Office.
I guess he was treated unfairly.
Why don't you meet with
him and listen to his story?
If he was treated unfairly,
he should go to a lawyer, a
counselor, or a fortune-teller.
However, I'll take his case.
Let me handle it.
Don't forget. I'm your
daughter, Goo Se Ra.
I'm also known as
Garden Tiger Moth.
Gosh.
Representative Yang Nae Sung,
what on earth were you up to?
Were you a middle-aged
table tennis master?
Chief Won didn't
call you afterward?
No, she didn't.
Isn't that suspicious?
She went out of her way...
to cancel the permit
by using her authority.
I must have persuaded her
when I was talking to her...
1-on-1 in her office.
After you guys broke up,
did Mr. Kim call you?
He didn't.
Did I...
tell you about
Mr. Kim yesterday?
You said that he didn't answer
your calls when you were dating.
So he wouldn't answer your
call now that you're broken up.
You took my phone
and called him.
Well, you pressed his
number without any hesitation.
No.
Hey.
Hurry.
Yes. Well, I called you
yesterday by accident.
It was a mistake. Yes.
Yes.
Darn it.
You renewed your
contract each year,
but you received a
notice of dismissal...
a week before your
contract term ended?
9 out of 15 guards
in total, right?
Yes. The office says
there's no problem legally.
I heard the residents complained
that we were being overpaid.
But what's strange is...
What is it?
The thing is,
all nine of us are
over 63 years old.
Not 60, 65, but 63?
You came to the right place.
I happen to be an expert...
at finding and protecting
jobs, and unemployment issues.
I see.
You are in good hands, sir.
I see. Can I go now?
- Yes.
- Thank you.
Han Bi, please see him out.
May I go now?
Yes.
I'll be waiting for
your call. Thank you.
An expert at protecting jobs
and unemployment issues?
Says who?
Myself.
And...
of course you guys.
Thanks for the glasses.
Isn't that room so spacious?
Yes.
Come and look
at the living room.
It's perfect for
a family of three.
You look just like your mom.
They all say that.
That's not true.
Let's have a talk later.
This is a new apartment,
and it's perfect for raising kids.
How is the office
for guards operated?
Since families with kids
receive so many parcels.
Do you use unmanned
parcel lockers?
Well, we held a vote
last year about that...
but the young residents
were opposed to it.
Shall we go to see the
next house? Follow me.
- Please come this way.
- Okay.
Ms. Goo provided...
the statement of maintenance
fees for three nearby apartments,
and Mr. Kim provided the
statement of maintenance fees...
for Jayu-dong Apartment.
As you can see,
the personnel expenses
for four apartments...
are precisely similar.
This means that the residents
of Jayu-dong Apartment...
did not pay excessive fees...
in order to employ their guards.
And they said the residents voted
for an unmanned parcel locker...
last year, but the young
residents were opposed to it.
That means the residents
also want an office for guards.
But the thing is,
within Jayu-dong Apartment's
statement of maintenance fees,
we discovered a word...
that wasn't in the statements
of other apartments.
That is...
"Employment
stability support fund"?
You can just do your work
and stay quiet as you've been.
Why do you keep poking
around here and there?
But the thing is...
Excuse me, why don't you
drink this before we talk?
Who are you?
Oh, I'm District
Representative Goo Se Ra...
of Mawon-gu District Assembly.
I see.
Your contract won't
even expire any time soon.
Why do you keep
inciting the other workers?
They are all still young.
Some of them even have
children who go to school.
If they're suddenly fired...
Let's make one thing clear.
They're not being fired.
Their contract has just expired.
Do you want to
lose your job too?
Excuse me, sir.
You received an employment
stability support fund...
all this time.
But if you tell the
guards to quit now,
do you mean you'll just
use those funds for yourself?
Is this area under
your jurisdiction?
No.
Then why are you
getting involved?
You people are the ones
who made an ordinance bill...
but suddenly cut our
budgets. Isn't it all your fault?
What if I get those funds back?
What if the budget
is reallocated?
Are you not going
to fire those people?
I just did my job.
I hate leaving things messy.
What's with the mood in here?
I'm not even getting
paid enough already.
I better look for a new job.
What about me? I
have kids to raise.
But the district
representatives said...
they'll take a
voluntarily pay-cut.
How is that possible?
They all have
other jobs, buildings,
and businesses besides this.
Their generosity
comes from their wealth.
Oh, except for one
person. Ms. Goo.
I bet her bank balance
is lower than us.
You're right.
I won't have enough money for
her green vegetable juice now.
Although I'm not
even drinking it now.
Me neither.
Do you have any
loans or anything?
Will you be okay?
Yes, I'll be okay
for the time being.
That's impressive.
Mr. Impressive, you
received an email.
Good day.
- Goodbye.
- Bye.
I need you to do some
urgent research for me.
What is it?
I sent the material you
requested. Please check.
Oh, okay.
When I read your email,
it reminded me of the old days.
The old days?
I'm working in the
council secretariat,
but it felt like I was
at the service center.
I guess my situation
hasn't changed that much.
No, it's become worse.
I'm going to hang up if
you keep annoying me.
Garden Tiger Moth.
I felt disappointed...
because you didn't write
"From Garden Tiger Moth"...
in the end.
Anyhow, I just did my job.
Since you requested
for some material.
Hello?
Why is he getting angry?
Why is he disappointed?
He used to hate it.
Let's see how well
he did his research.
"Shim-Jang-Si"? Darn it.
Goodness, they lose all
the time on sports festival,
but we still have to
make these like slaves.
It's not too late. Why don't
we go on the internet...
Why don't we just buy
things on the internet?
If Shim-Jang-Si finds
out, they'll throw a fit.
Their only job is to
organize this sports festival.
And Mawon-gu is
hosting it this year.
This feels so shameful.
You'll see what's
really shameful...
the moment you
open up those boxes.
My gosh. Why am I...
Did you just see that?
No.
What?
- Mawon-gu!
- Number one!
- Mawon-gu!
- Number one!
Mawon-gu!
Mawon-gu!
Hey.
Why aren't you doing your jobs?
Is this the World Cup or what...
You need to
arbitrate this issue.
Or reallocate the support funds.
Why should we?
You created the ordinance.
That's how they got the funds.
Creating the ordinance.
That's the extent of our duty.
That's right.
We can't suppress
the free will...
of the apartment's
management office.
- No.
- Right.
Firing people when they want...
isn't exactly free will.
Even a TV comes with
a one-year warranty.
What kind of ordinance
doesn't last even a year?
- What did you say?
- How dare you say that?
- We did our job!
- How dare you?
- What do you know?
- You're clueless!
- I thought better of you!
- What's your problem?
You can't say that to us!
- We did good!
- We meant well!
Don't you look down on us!
- Don't speak to elders like that!
- You're so rude!
Could you do this?
- Darn you!
- Darn you!
Darn it.
I apologize for last time.
When we voted about
the municipal bonds.
I really wanted to get paid.
Even after you persuaded
me that very morning.
You voted yes even
after that pep talk.
I asked to see both
representatives...
because I need your help.
I plan to reinstate some of
the social welfare budget...
through the revised
supplementary budget vote.
That includes the employment
stability support fund...
that Ms. Goo is
currently interested in.
Then my vote could help...
The vote will be
over and done with...
before your suspension's over.
Even within the Dagachi
Progressive Party,
three representatives
are against the idea.
While I try to persuade them,
do you think you
could get three votes...
from the Aeguk
Conservative Party?
I'd like you to think about it.
Sure.
That leaves Shim-Jang-Si,
three men that move as one.
I'll arrange a meeting after
tomorrow's sports festival.
Not like today.
Okay.
Does it have to be the three
guys I went up against today?
And why do I have to
work with Yoon Hee Su?
Darn it.
Hey.
You met Shim-Jang-Si
at work today.
Does it have something to do with
the information you asked me for?
It was about this and that.
You came here to ask me that?
Well, no, I wasn't that curious.
Here.
You should get your parents
something on your first payday.
Say you bought it.
Thank you!
Don't get the wrong idea.
They weren't gifts for me.
He must be struggling
with a smaller pay.
What?
Of all the things
you bought for us,
I like this the most.
I'm glad you are of
some use sometimes.
But the size is...
To be honest, the color too...
I told you we should keep quiet.
- When did you say that?
- You said red suits me.
- I did not.
- Look what you did.
He has such terrible taste.
How far did I get?
Shim-Jang-Si?
"They want to win the sports
festival more than unify Korea."
"The three idiots."
"They live a whole
year for this day alone."
What?
Who buys parents' thermal
underwear on their first payday?
You buy food or give them cash.
Did you buy thermal underwear?
Well, I thought that...
That's not the
problem right now.
Darn it.
Why do we even host
a lame sports festival?
The 2020 annual Mawon-gu...
and Hanul-gu sports festival.
To build friendship between
the two neighboring communities,
and to strengthen our bond,
we have been holding
this event for 10 years now.
I hope this marks a day of...
communication and
working in harmony.
Let's play fair.
Let's play fair.
Next is the entrance ceremony.
Mawon-gu's representatives
are accompanied by...
their mascot Marong.
What a lovely sight.
Goo Se Ra is here. Darn it.
What an embarrassment.
At the revised supplementary
budget vote including the support fund,
vote yes.
I thought about it,
and it's your ordinance,
so you need to fix it.
Not for free, though.
The sports festival. We can win.
The current record of the past
nine sports festivals is 9-to-0.
We can't let that
become 10-to-0.
Just the thought that you
can bargain with us over that...
- Right.
- How will we win?
I run 100m in 13 seconds.
I can break a lot of things.
Anything with a
ball? I'm good at it.
We saw how good
you are with balls...
at the elderly
feet-washing event.
That's right. Say yes.
- Mawon, Mawon, let's go!
- Mawon, Mawon, let's go!
We'll begin the match.
Win! Win!
It looks like Ms. Goo
will pester us for a while.
Then let's do this.
I'll vote yes if Mawon-gu wins.
- Pardon?
- Let's just see...
if she digs herself
into yet another hole.
The ball is coming.
- Good luck!
- It's mine!
The ground is slippery!
You're doing so well!
3-to-0, Hanul-gu wins.
- Why are we so bad?
- Hanul-gu!
You're doing so well!
If the supplementary
budget is passed...
and the complaint for
Jayu-dong Apartment is solved,
the three of us,
just the three of us
should take the credit.
Just like when the chief took
credit for the golf driving range.
Okay?
- Okay?
- Okay?
Okay. You made an
exceptional choice.
What is this nonsense?
There are still four
games left, so we can do it.
The district representatives
aren't the only players.
We can make the young
employees of the secretariat play too.
Ms. Goo.
They agreed to vote yes...
if we win this sports festival?
Don't you think this
is a bit too naive?
I'll set up a meeting with
them some other time.
We can explain the need
for a supplementary budget...
and persuade them...
Naive, my foot.
Explaining and persuading
won't work on them.
We've already
reached an agreement,
so please cooperate.
Okay?
But...
Goodness.
You threw that quite hard.
Was that a mistake?
It wasn't a mistake. I
don't make mistakes.
Me neither.
Hey. You're on the same side!
- Throw it at the opponent!
- My goodness.
What on earth?
I asked for your cooperation.
We must win.
- Okay, we have the ball.
- Okay.
Let's go! Grab
the ball. Throw it!
Let's attack.
Hey, here!
Hey! Seo Gong Myung!
Me! Me.
Here.
- Here.
- Give it to me.
Wait, you're passing it again?
- You can do it!
- Let's go!
Come on, let's go!
Throw it!
Let's go!
The score is 2:1.
Mawon-gu wins!
Why did you pass it to
Ms. Yoon instead of me?
I'm letting it slide since
we won dodge ball.
Why do you want to win so much?
Just cooperate. It involves
some important business.
We need to win
this sports festival...
to get three votes for
the supplementary budget.
What?
Don't tell me you cut a
deal with Shim-Jang-Si...
Gong Myung, you're pretty keen.
You understand even if
I don't spell it out for you.
We must win at all costs.
We'll win and recover
the budgets that were cut...
and solve the complaint as well.
Complaint? Another one?
Don't you remember last time?
We were quite
impressive as a team.
A team?
Hey. You should try harder
if you want to persuade me.
Please side with me.
Follow your heart and
prove you aren't wrong.
Here, this is my favorite.
Ms. Goo is playing so hard...
in your place.
She's not playing in my place.
We're just on the same
side with similar minds.
A person's mind changes
easily depending on one's...
position and situation.
That means Ms. Goo
isn't all that different.
With high expectations
comes great disappointment.
You should know well.
You've already experienced it.
- He has arrived.
- Okay.
Let's go.
- Mawon!
- Hanul!
- Mawon!
- Mawon!
Pull harder!
Mawon! Mawon! Mawon!
- Pull harder! Pull!
- Mawon!
- Mawon!
- Mawon!
Mawon!
Mawon!
- Mawon!
- Hanul!
- Mawon!
- Hanul!
Mawon!
- Mawon!
- Mawon!
- Look!
- It's Assemblyman Choi!
- Assemblyman Choi!
- Hurry!
It's Assemblyman Choi!
- We won!
- Yes!
- Hello.
- Hello, sir.
- Hello.
- Welcome, sir.
Move over.
Darn.
You said you already
reached an agreement.
What use is it if you
make a good team?
It's important to make
connections with assemblymen.
What? Assemblymen?
The assemblyman's visit is
the highlight of today's event.
- Welcome.
- That is...
Assemblyman Choi Goo Pal
of Aeguk Conservative Party.
- You don't even know that?
- Whatever.
I don't care who he is.
Gosh.
1, 2, 3, and me.
We can run 100m in
13 seconds. Let's do it.
I think it took me 23 seconds
to run 100m in high school.
What about you?
- I just walked.
- Oh.
What?
You better do a good job.
I'm just running since I'm
one of the younger members.
- I'm not interested at all.
- Just listen to me and run.
You're the one who
made a reckless deal.
Why are you asking me
to take care of your mess?
It's time for the last game
of today's sports festival.
The last highlight of
today is a relay race.
The current score
is 2:2, and we're tied.
The winning team will be
decided by this last game.
Get ready!
Run!
Go!
Run faster!
Man, we're doomed.
Run!
Darn!
It's time to announce
today's winner.
Congratulations,
Mawon-gu District Assembly!
Congratulations!
Mawon-gu! Mawon-gu!
- Mawon!
- Mawon!
- Mawon!
- Mawon!
- Mawon!
- Mawon!
- Mawon!
- Mawon!
Let me grill the meat.
- No, let me.
- No, I'll do it. I'm better at it.
Let me pour you a drink.
- To Mawon-gu.
- Cheers. Cheers.
A team dinner.
Ms. Goo, that's my seat.
First come, first served.
I don't want to sit at the end.
Mr. Kim, sit over here.
Isn't this quite a refreshing
seating arrangement?
A representative, a secretary,
and two members of staff.
You two are so dull-witted.
Let's have some meat cooked
for us by a representative.
You don't like to
be spoiled, do you?
I'm not bad at this.
Is there something down there?
Here you go.
This is for you.
Have some meat.
- Thank you.
- The meat here is very good.
It's so nice with vegetables.
- Perilla leaves?
- That works too.
- I ate it all.
- More perilla leaves, please.
Let me pour you a drink.
Oh, yes. Thank you.
Here you go.
We should drink too.
Let's drink.
Oh, hello. Come on inside.
Hello.
Are you doing okay?
Yes.
Say hello to district
representative Ms. Goo Se Ra.
The Ms. Goo I heard
about? It's nice to meet you.
Hello.
I won't take too
much of your time.
The wrongful dismissal
you told me about.
I think it'll get sorted out.
I dropped by to
tell you not to worry.
Thank you a lot.
I'm so relieved.
You're young and sprightly,
and very thorough with
your work. Thank you.
Oh, I'm not that good.
What is it?
Come on.
Whose idea was this?
It was my idea, of course.
Three times a day every day,
I'll send a photo to Shim-Jang-Si.
We know their history
and you're using it like this?
Hey. A person must learn
from their experiences.
There's a learning curve.
I don't believe the
representatives signed that thing.
I said, "I don't trust your
word, so write me something."
I know that...
things like this have
a 1,000 percent effect.
You could get
into trouble for this.
Who would scold me when
even my parents ignore me?
Good for you.
You're mad, Se Ra. You
still have him saved like this?
Why is he calling?
You can't tease three men
your father's age with a memo.
And not three times a day.
The memo is...
a simple contract between
me and the three gentlemen.
What would happen to...
the reputation as an
assembly if word got out that...
you traded three votes
with a sports festival victory?
I'm not sure about
our reputation,
but I just did my job.
There's a complaint
that I promised to solve.
Why work so hard for no money?
Are you going to run in
next year's regional election?
Gosh, no, I really won't.
I decided not to.
Min Jae will take my place.
This isn't something
I should hear.
Tell him yourself.
Don't torture him with hope.
When you're really, honestly
sure you can keep the promise.
You made a promise before
the by-election and didn't keep it.
Every event...
comes with variables.
When I went to Samcheonpo...
on hearing that Min
Jae's father had died,
I saw a young woman serve food
as if she were a family member.
I didn't think I'd meet her
again as a district representative.
Sir.
How did you manage to come?
I'll take you home.
It's late.
It's the first time
I'm asking this.
Do you regret it?
Quitting being a civil servant.
Giving up your career
to serve Chairman Cho.
Don't you regret
waiting indefinitely,
hoping that one day
he'll give you a chance?
Do you have regrets?
I asked you first.
You answer first.
I packed some marinated
beef ribs and side dishes.
Your address is personal info,
so I asked you to come over.
It's not because I can't
be bothered to visit you.
But...
I buy my food at the same place.
Million Dollars Side Dishes.
The food tastes different
depending on who bought it.
And also,
thanks for the
thermal underwear.
I appreciate it.
Se Ra doesn't get paid.
Who else would know
that and look out for her?
It had to be you, Gong Myung.
Put that into the fridge
as soon as you get home.
- I will.
- See you.
Thank you.
Go ahead.
- Go on inside.
- I will. Go on home.
I thought about it a
lot. About that time.
I don't regret that.
I do regret...
leaving you and heading off.
It's so strange.
You say that now
as if it's nothing,
and I feel nothing as I hear it.
I don't feel anything.
- Se Ra.
- Leave.
Leave.
Let's talk next time.
Talk about what?
My gosh.
Okay, so... I met Min
Jae on my way back.
We crossed paths.
So he brought me home.
Did he?
You saw your ex-boyfriend.
Yes.
What about you?
Your mom asked me to come by.
See you.
Why...
"Min Jae"?
I'd like a visitor's pass.
The name is Goo Se Ra.
- Did you request one?
- Of course I did.
I spoke to you in person.
Here you go.
I can't say that Chairman
Cho asked to see me.
Yes, yes.
It all ends today.
I understand.
Yes.
Hello.
You're still suspended.
You can't attend the meeting.
That's why today I'm a visitor.
Don't worry about the vote.
I persuaded three members
from the other party,
and they promised
to vote in our favor.
They voted against
issuing municipal bonds...
and now demand a
supplementary budget!
Dagachi Progressive
Party must repent!
- Repent! Repent!
- Repent! Repent!
The Dagachi Progressive Party...
must change how they
apply trickeries to do politics!
- Change!
- My gosh.
- Repent! Repent!
- Please stop.
- Who must repent?
- Sirs.
- Now they make demands?
- Sirs.
Repent!
- Repent! Repent!
- Repent! Repent!
- Repent!
- Repent!
- Repent! Repent!
- Will you stop this?
Return to your seats!
Will you calm down?
- Calm down.
- Change your ways!
Do you not hear me?
- Repent!
- Calm down!
Leave me alone!
Hey, hey.
Darn it.
Run! Run!
Mawon! Mawon!
Mawon!
Mawon! Mawon!
The chairman's office has
been vacant for a long time.
We can't keep it vacant.
Chairman Go Dong Chan and
Vice Chairperson Yoon Hee Su.
Chairperson Yoon Hee Su and
Vice Chairman Go Dong Chan.
- Are you serious?
- Why wouldn't I be?
- My sincerity...
- Do you think this is enough?
If you want my vote, give
me what you give the others.
Run for chairman.
If you get the title, what
happened won't happen again.
Goo Se Ra is an ideal candidate?
We just need to assign her a
trainer who knows what we want.
The former chairman's
secretary will do that for us.
