Seung-cheon returns to Korea ten years later and is reunited with Ju-hee.

THE GOLDEN SPOON

INTERVIEW IDENTIFICATION SLIP
NAME: LEE SEUNGCHEON

Seoul Jeil High? You're my junior.

I did go to study abroad
after going there for a year.

Still, a junior is a junior.

All right. Let's see, my junior.

You haven't gone to study abroad at all?

What is this? You won a Gold Prize
for your short webtoon?

There's a Half-Alien in My House.

You have a lot of experience
working part-time at our hotel.

Should we make him the manager
of the restaurant on the first floor,



or something like that?

He received the top score
for OPIc and TOEIC,

and an outstanding score
for the aptitude test.

But everyone here can speak
that much English, right?

In this global era,
it's a given to speak a few languages.

A given!

HOTEL MYEONGSEONG
RECRUITMENT INTERVIEW ROOM

You're right, sir.

I've become very attached to this company
while working part-time.

If you hire me, I'll dedicate myself
to realizing your great purpose.

Please let me work here.

Not bad.

INTERVIEW ROOM

So what if he's the owner's son?



And this is all they're giving me
for the interview?

Hello.

A time to get prettier.
I'm Oh Yeojin of Oh Yeojin's Beauty Time.

-Did you perhaps try using the product…
-She's on a roll.

…I introduced last week?

I did, and it sure felt different.

Let's help those job seekers out there
get moist and elastic skin.

By giving more elasticity to your skin…

The broadcasting stations
are having a field day with your hit show.

How about you make it a series
with Fashion Time and Money Time?

I'm a businesswoman, not a celebrity.

You need to stop relying on me
to run your business.

You can't make any money
for General Entertainment this way.

What about Amikus' party on Saturday?

I need to make money.
I'm meeting with a Japanese buyer.

"I'm meeting with a Japanese buyer."

Bye.

I should have partnered up with Yeojin,
instead of getting in Entertainment.

Who is it now?

It sure felt different.

Hello, Park Janggun speaking.

Na Juhee?

I see, Janggun. It can't be helped then.

I'll see you another time. Bye.

Both of them have plans for the weekend.
Oh Yeojin and Park Janggun won't be there.

Okay! I think we can go ahead with it.

Ms. Na, Ms. Wang.

Are you sure about this gambling
within Amikus?

Messing with them the wrong way
won't end with a letter of apology.

So…

…let's please do a good job.

Goodness.

Goodness, gracious.

That sly jerk.

He's totally scared
that we're after conglomerates.

I've asked Seungcheon
to arrange everything.

Okay.

Right, Hwang Taeyong.

Rumor says he got engaged
to Oh Yeojin in the States.

He hasn't been in Korea
for the last ten years.

He'd come back for his wedding, right?

Before that,

we'd have to go to Amikus' party.

Yeah, Seungcheon. I got in.

Thanks.

I see, Juhee.

Be careful not to get caught.

It's been confirmed. Enjoy your time.

May I see your invitation?

You cannot enter without an invitation.

Only the invited guests are allowed in.

Please show me your invitation.

-It's been confirmed.
-Enjoy your time.

-Sir, hello.
-Hi.

Oh.

I've seen you somewhere.

I was at the final round interview
of Myeongseong Hotel.

My junior, Seungcheon, right?

He went to Seoul Jeil High.

Is that so?

-Huh. Keep up the hard work.
-Yes, sir.

-Please enjoy your time.
-Thanks.

-Who is he?
-Don't you know him?

He's the head of Dosin Hightech
or something.

Hwang Hyeondo's brother-in-law.

Seo Juntae?

If he's your junior, he's probably rich.
Why does he work part-time?

Maybe he has no money.

But he's really good at speaking French.

Hi.

You should hire him then.

No, I dropped him.

He hasn't even been abroad,

but his pronunciation's better than mine.
It annoys me.

Annoying guys like him
are the ones making money for you.

You're right, but he's way too annoying.

By the way, rumor says that you'll
push Taeyong aside and take over Dosin.

So what brings the busy man here?

I'm looking for someone.

Who?

Let's clink.

What's this? Who ordered it?

We were told to serve a bottle
for each table, sir.

Who told you that?

Let's go!

Shh.

Amikus!

Yeah!

Let's go!

JUHEE

Why isn't she picking up?

Are you sure Taeyong is here?

I'm telling you.
Didn't you even know that he came back?

That's not important right now.

Just find him.

All right, ma'am.

I'm Park Janggun.

That darn Hwang Taeyong.

I'll make sure to find him.

Look forward to it, Oh Yeojin.
I'll bring him to you.

Sorry.

-You look much better in person.
-Nice pick-up line.

I'm Hwang Taeyong of Dosin.
Come with me to my room.

-Right now?
-No.

Hmm. After having a little fun here.

-Should we get a room for you?
-What the…

Ms. Oh.

A popular actress should behave better.

He's even dating an idol singer.
Are you okay with a love triangle scandal?

Are you kidding me?

Hey, at least give me your number…

Jeez, it was going great.

Snap out of it, will you?

What if someone writes
an article about this?

Oh.

My fiancée is much sexier
when she gets mad.

People are watching. Let's go.

Where are you going?

Want to sleep over?

Stop being silly. Let's just leave.

No, I don't want to!
And I didn't do anything wrong.

You can leave if you want. I'm staying.

Taeyong. Hey!

Your drink is here.

Please enjoy your time.

It's not going to work today.
Let's give up.

Why? Did the tip turn out to be false?

I don't know.
These people just aren't gambling.

They're playing board games instead.

Hey, that's it. Board games.

When I was younger,

I heard that you bet money
if you play board games in Amikus.

That it's a real gamble.

-Goodness.
-Here it comes.

-Let's go.
-Hey.

-It's time to pay.
-No.

-Hurry and pay.
-What a shame.

Let's go.

Sit down first.

-Six! All right, we got you.
-Oh, come on!

-Today's the day for me.
-Goodness.

-He's so good.
-You're too good.

-Go!
-Come on!

Let's go!

They have 4 of 500,000-won bills,

10 of 100,000-won bills,

and 5 of bills less than 50,000 won each.

The betting's about 3.5 million won
per person.

But times this by 100,

that's 350 million won per person.

So, 1.4 billion won per game?

-And?
-Hurry and pay up.

Right, did you guys year?

There's a start-up company on the Nasdaq
that's exiting for 500 billion won.

What was the name?

I know. Most Lab, right?

Yeah, that's right.

-Most Lab? I've heard of that name.
-Why isn't Juntae coming back?

Maybe he just ran off.

I wouldn't do that.

Just kidding.

You'd never do that.

You already started playing without me?

Why aren't you betting cash?

-Sit down first.
-You guys are boring.

Jeez.

We're betting with property today.

Juntae, you could bet your
Jeju golf membership.

Janggun, you should join us.

No, I'll play next time.

I cannot leave my Yeojin alone outside!

Park Janggun, let me pour you
a drink before you go.

-Why not?
-Raise.

Hey, you.

Bring us one more glass.

Wait.

Forget it. We have one here.

Please enjoy your time.

Okay, bye.

Thank you.

-Let go!
-Come here.

You're mistaken. I'm telling you! Wait.

-Gosh, it hurts so much.
-I said, it wasn't me.

You're weird.

Move. What is wrong with you people?

I said no.

Long time no see, Na Juhee.

Hwang Taeyong?

I thought you were a screenwriter.
What's with that uniform?

Ah!

Is this an undercover research
or something?

You even do such a thing? That's cool.

Right. I heard that
you looked everywhere for me.

Why?

Did you miss me?

No, I just wanted to ask you something.

Ask me something? What?

If I killed your father?

Hey, it wasn't me.

Why would I? I had no reason to.

Then why did you
suddenly run off to the States?

And why did Ms. Kim die of an accident?

Can you explain all this?

I can't. I didn't do it, so how can I?

Juhee, let's stop this boring talk

and just have a drink.

We were once engaged, you know.

Juhee.

Goodness, watch the drink.

-Hwang Taeyong?
-Lee Seungcheon?

What are you doing here?

Juhee, did this bastard
do something to you?

Gosh, I was just trying to be friendly.

By the way, are you two still dating?

Yes, we are. What's that to you?

I don't think so. Look at her face.

Don't overdo it just because I'm here.

Just be natural.

Rumor said that you became
a dirtbag in the States,

but this is worse than I thought.

Seungcheon, let's go.

Wait, Juhee.

Don't leave like this.
Have a drink with me.

What are you doing? Let go.

-No, I won't let go.
-What's this?

-You guys were together?
-Hey, Hwang Taeyong.

Yeojin.

I told you to let go of me.

We only held hands.
We didn't do anything. Right?

Call Seongwon over.

We've found the rats he's looking for.

-Let go!
-Wait, just hear me out!

Goodness!

Are you okay?

Isn't this too much?

You shouldn't have tried
to cover this party illegally.

Let's just have fun.

Taeyong, behind you.

I see a lot of familiar faces.
And one of them is my nephew.

What are you doing here, Uncle?

I came to see you.

I heard you came back
but didn't hear from you.

Well… I was a little busy.

No, that's not it.
It seemed you were busy.

By the way, you've gotten a lot cooler.

Juhee, I'm really sorry
I didn't recognize you back there.

But what is all this?

Where's that thing? The spy camera.

You came to film a video.

Here it is.

How dare you film us in secret?

What are you doing?
It's true you were gambling illegally.

Why you little…

If you have nothing to hide,
why don't you just call the police?

The police?

This guy is funny.

What's your name? "Lee Seungcheon?"

Seongwon, aren't you being too easy
on your junior?

No!

Gosh, that hurts.

This is your fault.

Uncle, I got slapped on his behalf,
so could you please let them go?

What are you talking about?

Did you tell me to call the police?
Sure, I'll do that.

Come on, Seongwon. No.

My uncle's the head of Dosin Hightech.

He may be in trouble if people hear

that he slapped
poor, powerless part-timers like them.

What are you doing?

Well, I'm just worried about you.

And don't you feel bad for them?

Never mind. You can do as you wish.

I'll let them go.

Really?

Since you are

this worried about me,

I should let them go.

-I won't let it go next time.
-Sure.

Especially you.

I guess that's settled. Thank goodness.

Yeojin.

Don't tell my father about this.

Juhee, are you okay?

Mm.

Hwang Taeyong has changed a lot.

It was strange
when he suddenly left for the States.

Did something happen to him?

I'm sorry, Seungcheon.

You got fired because of me.

Forget it. If you're that sorry, get me
another gig at the broadcasting station.

-Return this, all right?
-Honey, you can't do that.

Why not? He's just a mere part-timer.

I'm sorry.

Don't mind him, Juhee. He's a guest here.

Being rich doesn't mean he can do this.

It would be unfair if rich people
even had nice characters.

Poor people can at least feel proud
thanks to those jerks.

Let's go, my friend.

Our mood is ruined, so I'll treat you
to some pork belly and soju.

Let's go.

I don't want to be
just friends with you though.

Hey, why aren't you coming? Let's go.

I'm coming.

-Pork belly.
-And soju?

Bye!

That prick.

What did you talk about with Juhee?

Nothing much.

Why did Uncle Juntae have to show up
just then? I couldn't even have fun.

Seo Juntae's always on your case.
Aren't you angry at all?

I am.

But I have to put up with him.
What else can I do?

Relax.

Gosh, that startled me. What was that?

Do you think I lent you money, helped you,
and waited for you to watch this mess?

You didn't lend it to me for free.

I gave you my golden spoon.

Taeyong.

My life is in your hands,
so what's making you unhappy?

Are you worried I might not get Dosin?

That's true. I can't beat my uncle.

If you're going to live like this,
just go back to being poor Lee Seungcheon.

I don't want to.
I like being Hwang Taeyong.

I may not be the heir of Dosin,

but I have lots of money.

I'm sorry, but I won't put up with it.

Stop honking. It's noisy.

What? Who are you?

What are you doing?

Hey! What the…

Who are you people? I'm Hwang Taeyong!

Yeojin, where are they taking me? Hey!

I'm Hwang Taeyong! Who are you guys?

Oh Yeojin! I'm sorry.

Yes, Father.

Taeyong will be home soon.

Hey, how dare you touch me?

You're dead meat.
I'll remember all your faces.

Let go of me! Put me down!

That's right. I'm down.

Father.

Come to my study.

How did he end up…

I can't believe this.

He brought it upon himself.

Why did you suddenly come back to Korea?

I was just bored.

I felt lonely too.

Just what…

are you thinking?

Nothing really.

Nothing at all?

There's nothing I can do.

I have no shares, no power.

My father isn't willing
to help his only son either.

I was wrong.

I overestimated you.

You can go now.

I don't want to.

I'll stay and say what I have to say.

What you have to say?

DOSIN ELECTRICS, ARRESTED A ROBBER,
SEOUL COMMISSIONER AWARD, DRUG CASE'

The case is closed.
It was just an accident.

Please.

Miss, please stop bothering me.

Oh Hyunpil, the head of the investigation.

He resigned and joined Dosin Security.

Currently, he runs a studio lease business
worth seven billion won.

Come on. It wasn't an accidental death.

If you come here again,
I'll call the police.

Yoo Sungsoo, the medical examiner.

He resigned and became a director
of Dosin Medical Foundation.

Currently, he runs a nursing home
worth ten billion won.

The last person your father met--

Kim Nayoung, the butler.

After resigning from our house,

she tried to join DS Resort
but ended up dying.

All three of them are connected to Dosin.

But these aren't enough for evidence.

SPICY CLAM STEW

Here. Let me pour you a drink.

Cheers.

Let's see…

Oh!

How spicy. It's perfect
to have a drink with.

Tell me about it.

So, did Hwang Taeyong tell you
that he didn't kill your father?

There's no way he'd tell the truth.

I had so many questions,

but I got worked up and couldn't ask much.

Are you still digging
into your father's case?

No, I put it aside a few years ago.

I feel bad for my dad,

but I also needed to live on.

I'm sure he understands.

But aren't you going
to tell Seungcheon about it?

His life is tough enough already.

I don't want him to worry about me too.

Juhee, I've realized something
after being an investigative journalist

for more than ten years.

The truth always gets out,

no matter what.

-Right?
-Right.

Cheers.

WE SPECIALIZE IN SALES, LEASES, LOTS

I thought you stopped coming.
Why are you here again?

To say hello.

How have you been?

I have no business with you whatsoever.

I already told you. We found nothing
when we searched the scene!

Exactly, and that always makes me curious.

I've read books and had tea
in my father's study,

so why didn't you find any of my traces?

You should've at least found
my hair or fingerprints.

I hear everyone leaves a trace, no?

Do you know what your problem is?
You always go around in circles.

And that's because you're digging
into a perfectly clean case!

Move.

That's because you people
got rid of the evidence.

Mr. Oh, I'll come again.

Jaedon's Your Money My Money.

Dear subscribers,

that's it for today's
money-making stock report.

Guys.

May you become filthy rich.

Bye!

Couldn't you see me on air?

Hey, I…

I didn't get into Myeongseong Hotel.

WE'RE SORRY WE CANNOT HIRE YOU
DESPITE YOUR OUTSTANDING COMPETENCY

Did you think you'd get in? You're crazy.

Then you shouldn't have assisted
that secret coverage.

You idiot. If I were the executive,
I wouldn't hire you either.

If you want to keep streaming
from my room,

watch what you say.

Speaking of which,

why did you even break up with Juhee
if you're this concerned about her?

It's not like she blamed you
for losing her 500 million won.

What's so great
about that sense of guilt--

Shut your mouth.

I'd love to kick you out right now,

but I'm putting up with you
for your wife's and twins' sake.

Damn you. I'm going to get rich soon
so I can escape this place.

This is too humiliating.

Right, you know the company
Dongkyung works at?

-Most Lab?
-Yes.

It will be listed on the stock market.

Whoever owns the company
will make a fortune.

I'm jealous.

If I can get my hands on such money,

I'll pay Juhee back.

You're pathetic.

Your life started to get twisted
when you turned down that offer.

Who was that, Alex Boo? Him.

Alex Boo…

What, 500 million won?

I called you over to teach you
because you have an eye for things,

and you want me
to lend you 500 million? Why?

I lost

my dear friend's money.

If you lend me that much,
I'll do anything.

Let's start with 1.5 million a month.
You'll get a 10% raise every year.

If you work hard and make results,
it can even be 20 or 30%.

Ten years.

Work under me for just ten years.

You'll have more than just 500 million.

A BANK THAT SAVES PEOPLE
SHINMYUNG BANK

I should've just said yes then.

Hello?

What?

Hwang Taeyong?

Hey.

Hey, wake up.

Where am I?

Oh.

Ah.

Look at you.

Hey, you.

Why are you in this mess?

You're still so cranky.

What's wrong with a grownup son
having a drink?

He even suspended my credit card.

It's just too much.

I couldn't pay for the drink,
and I even lost my shoes.

Hey, check this out.

I got a hole in my sock too.

Move it.

This dumpling soup is to die for.

It's my favorite food.

So what?

You called a job seeker out
to buy dumpling soup for you?

Why didn't you ask your secretary
or whatever for it?

My secretary? Oh, Munki?

Hey, I fired him a long time ago.

He kept telling on me to my father.

Ah, how are your parents?

I'm sure they're okay.
I was just asking to be nice.

Keep eating.

Hey, let me tell you something
while I'm here with you.

I heard you're engaged to Oh Yeojin.

I'll kill you
if you try to hit on Juhee again.

You'll kill me?

-That's scary. Okay, I get it.
-A member of a global idol group…

-Don't worry.
-…is said to be

in a relationship
with the only son of the D Group family.

Reporter Si Eunjin has more on the story.

-The idol singer…
-Hey, that's me.

-…and D Group's son's scandal.
-Hey.

-Apparently, they had met at a club…
-This is crazy. I'm on the news.

-…and developed feelings for each other.
-I'd better take pictures of it.

And recently, they were spotted
at a hotel swimming pool,

-kissing and hugging each other.
-Seungcheon, join me.

A scandal about D Group's only son
and an idol singer.

It's Taeyong, right?

No, Dad. Who said that?

As if.

Only a while ago,
he got caught in Las Vegas with a girl

who was practically naked in some movie,
and he's at it again.

I'm calling President Hwang
to complain about this.

Dad!

I said it wasn't him.

Then you should believe me!

Yes, right.

I believe what my daughter says.
I do, but--

If you want your daughter
to be Dosin Group's lady,

just don't do anything.

I'll take care of it all.

That brat's so cold.
Who did she get it from?

Lee Seungcheon,

when in the world
will you come to your senses?

IMAGE

Apparently, President Hwang married her
because she looked like his late wife.

Shh! Watch your mouth.

Do you want to get your husband fired
at the next reshuffle?

Watch what you say.

Thank you.

As you must already know,

they are the wife of the Senior Secretary,

and the wife of the Minister
of Strategy and Finance.

There's one more person.

He is my younger brother.

Ooh.

I'm Seo Juntae, the CEO of Dosin Hightech.

Today,

I'm here for the lights.

Taeyong's truly hopeless.

Did you read today's article?

Apparently,
Attorney Ko can't stop every article.

I was behind it.

No wonder.

I'm just grateful
that he causes trouble every day.

I'm going to release more.

Okay, then you just have to get through
the upcoming board meeting.

Get reappointed, and the next
is becoming vice president.

You know the heir of Dosin
will be determined

by this board meeting, right?

I'm not worried because you're on my side.

I'm keeping a close eye on Taeyong,
so don't mind him.

All right.

Whoo!

Here. Thanks for your work.

Have you used a revolving door before?

Munkyu, this is my dad's hotel.

So I reserved the best room here.

Gosh, I dropped the key card.

Munkyu.

Hey.

Please be thorough
with the given materials.

Mr. Jang, you're such a beauty.

All thanks to a certain someone.

But did you have to kiss me there, honey?

-"Honey?"
-I mean, young master.

Sorry.

We have no time. Let's start the meeting.

It was my first kiss.

You need to thoroughly check

the negotiation progress
with Robochase in the US.

Don't forget to ask our angel investors
to keep it classified.

-Yes, sir.
-Understood.

But must we exit?

The company's valuation is high
and we have high technical skills.

It's such a waste.

Now is the time to go further.

Further and longer, right?

Right. How did it go
with the accountant, Kim Inchul?

Uh, he certainly has evidence,

but it's not too easy.

You must convince him. He's the key man
if we're to get Seo Juntae.

Yes, sir.

Let's call it a day.
I'll get going. Be careful, everyone.

-Yes, sir.
-Of course, sir.

-Good work.
-Good work.

Good work, everyone.

Jeez.

What is this, an intelligence mission?

Is Seo Juntae that frightening?

You know what?

When we were in the States,

there were car accidents
everywhere the young master went.

And people tried to shoot him.

That was all Seo Juntae's doing?

Yes.

It's a miracle that he's still alive.

2017, US STATE HOSPITAL

Come on, help me out here.

You're the only one

who can help me right now.

SUCCESS AFTER SUCCESS
SIDE DISH STORE

This doesn't make sense!

This amount of incredibly
delicious jangjorim,

is only 4,000 won?

Unbelievable.

It's all thanks to you, sir.

You rented us a house and a store
at such a low price.

-Thank you so much.
-No.

-Give it to him.
-Okay.

We can support ourselves now,

so you should raise the monthly rent.

-Yes.
-Sungah is working,

and Seungcheon will also get a job soon.

Don't worry.

There's someone else looking out for you.

Who?

Who?

Well, the Almighty.

Hallelujah.

-Amen.
-Amen.

Hey, Seungcheon. If you can't get a job,
just work at my office.

Investing in stocks or crypto
is no use in this country.

Investing in real estate is the best.

I see.

Mmm.

-I shouldn't touch it.
-Right.

-Get him some.
-Do you want some? Sure.

Hello?

This is the police station.

Myeongseong Hotel has sued you

-for obstruction of business.
-What?

Sir.

-Wait, sir.
-Jeez.

This isn't right.

Aside from obstruction of business,

you'll be charged 100 million won
for psychological damage

caused by the joint illegal act
of violating portrait rights

and invading privacy.

No settlements.

If you're unhappy, file a countercharge.

-Wait, sir.
-Gosh.

A 100 million…

Damn it.

What? They sued Seungcheon too?

Didn't he tell you?

Because he was their part-timer,

they filed criminal and civil suits
against him

for obstruction of business and stuff.

That jerk, Choi Seongwon has gone insane.

Seungcheon has no money.

We'll take responsibility.

We? No.

Seungcheon's an adult too.
He needs to take his own responsibility.

That's truly for his sake.

What are you saying?
Hurry and call the Legal Team right now.

Uh, why isn't he answering his phone?

Cheers to the future of Amikus!

-Cheers!
-Cheers!

-Hey, it's been a long time.
-I know.

You too. Have you been well?

You've gotten prettier.

Those with nothing are always the problem.

I'm busy managing my global company,

so why must I deal with dregs like him?

Well, I should.

Now repeat after me.

"What I've done is unforgivable."

Say it.

What I've done is unforgivable.

Gosh, he's being too serious.

In French.

What I've done is unforgivable.

-He sounds so fluent.
-Right? Hey, say something else.

You need to do your best.

-Come on.
-Seongwon.

Knock it off.

All right.

-Janggun, send him off now.
-Okay.

Hey, get up now. Drink this and leave.

Here.

Goodness.

Goodness, you…

Are you dropping the suit, then?

Against Juhee, me, and the others.

Yes, I will.

I won't get anything
out of suing you anyway.

I just dropped the suit, so you can go.

Thank you.

Don't thank me
because I'm much more grateful.

Thank Taeyong instead.

Myeongseong F&B is supplying goods
to Dosin now.

Congrats!

Thanks to your friendship,
how much did I earn?

Thanks.

Thank you.

Thank you!

Guys, it's on me today. Eat up.

-Cheers!
-Cheers!

You managed to find your way here
through the alleys.

I came here in high school.

You drank all these alone?

You can hold your liquor, can't you?

Hey.

I worked part-time here
at this convenience store for a long time.

How much did I earn here in total?

Still, it'd be less than 100 million.

Taeyong, you've never
worked part-time before, have you?

You probably haven't had
expired triangular gimbap to save money.

And you must not have stuck
your head on the floor miserably

in front of people because of money.

You told me once before.

That the poor must avoid
getting into a fight.

Today, I tried my best to hold out
with what you said in mind.

I did everything as I was told,

so I wouldn't have to pay 100 million.

But that wasn't why he let it slide.

It was all thanks to you.

I tried so hard, you see.

Hey, it wasn't thanks to me.

Seongwon and Dosin signed a deal
because it was needed.

Don't bother.

Hey, you just made me feel

more miserable by saying that.

Anyway, thanks.

There's nothing I can do for you.

So today, let's call it even
with this drink.

Seungcheon.

Juhee. Come on, let's have a drink.

I didn't know you were with Hwang Taeyong.

I felt so good today
that I asked him to drink with me.

I heard you helped drop the suit.

-What did you do so wrong to Seungcheon?
-"Wrong"?

Hey, I helped him out
with good intentions.

-We're friends.
-Really?

Rich people spend money on others
for just two reasons.

Hmm, it's either worth the money
or they did something wrong.

Helping Seungcheon
wouldn't get you anything.

So what did you do?

Jeez, you're talking too much
when all you need to say is "Thank you."

Why don't you choose one
between your pride and money?

Right, what's the use of acting so proud
before your money?

I should just be grateful, right?

What's with you guys?

All I wanted was to have a drink together.

Well, I'll just go home.

Right.

I wonder.

How much did you pay
to cover up my dad's death?

I'm really curious

about how much it cost.

Seungcheon.

-Yes?
-Goodness, you silly.

Let's drink some more.

What are you talking about?

I heard you helped them. Why?

That's not important.

Don't bother me with nothing.

Wasn't it because of Juhee?

You wanted to help Na Juhee.

Tell me. Do you still
have feelings for her?

What's making you so anxious?

I got engaged to you,
and I'm going to marry you.

I even gave you my golden spoon.

I gave you everything I could,

so why are you still so anxious?

I can't trust you, Lee Seungcheon.

If I do this, will you trust me?

BOOK OF SOLUTIONS

THE HAPPINESS OF HAVING
A GOOD PERSON WITH YOU

I bought this with my first paycheck,

and I'm finally giving it to you.

Seungcheon, when you're troubled
or concerned,

open this book.

It may not be able to give you an answer,

but it will comfort and encourage you.

P.S.

Guess what I got
when I opened it just now.

"The happiness of having
a good person with you."

Lee Seungcheon,

I'm so happy that I got to know you.

Do you still have feelings for her?

No.

I don't.

Let's go over the next item.

It's…

Gosh, Don's Best! Don Seller, you too?
Thank you so much!

Here I am becoming filthy rich!

DON'S BEST HAS DONATED 5 MILLION
DON SELLER HAS DONATED 1 MILLION

Minor Stock, I really am
Hwang Taeyong's best friend.

Jeez.

Here, donate some if you feel sorry.

Let's start
with my favorite Dosin Hightech.

Dosin Hightech.

(BREAKING) DOSIN'S 4TH-GENERATION SON,
HWANG, INVESTIGATED FOR DRUGS

Wait.

Did something bad happen to Dosin Group?

HWANG, THE FOURTH-GENERATION SON OF DOSIN
BEING INVESTIGATED FOR USING DRUGS

Since the report about
the son of Dosin's president,

being suspected of drugs
came out on the ninth,

the stock price of Dosin Holdings
fell sharply by 10.2%

-within only a week.
-This is very bad.

The situation is the same
with Dosin Electronics.

MNS Global Investment Bank
criticized the risks…

-This is perfect.
-…which may be caused

by big companies and their structures

in their report last year, and it's

gaining attention once again.

What is this?

(BREAKING) DOSIN'S 4TH-GENERATION SON,
HWANG, INVESTIGATED FOR DRUGS

"Hwang, the fourth-generation son…"
Hwang Taeyong?

What happened? Hurry up and look into it.

Damn it.

HWANG TAEYONG

Why isn't he picking up?

Hey, Park Janggun!
Check Taeyong's article.

-Okay.
-Now!

Okay.

That Hwang Taeyong…

That Hwang Taeyong.

That bastard deserves it.

I knew this would happen.
Serves him right!

All the stock prices of Dosin affiliates
are dropping at the moment.

Even overseas investors
are selling their stocks,

causing Dosin stocks to flood the market.

-And each stock price is dropping
-WOMAN: Why can't I sell mine?

...even more sharply within the day.

Except for four affiliates of Dosin,

all the affiliates are

-suffering from the downturn…
-It's now.

Start purchasing.

(BREAKING) DOSIN'S 4TH-GENERATION SON,
HWANG, INVESTIGATED FOR DRUGS

Taeyong took drugs?

Who released such an article? Juntae?

Probably for the board meeting.

Every affiliate's stock price is falling.
I think we must respond quickly.

First, find Taeyong.
Then tell the Strategy Planning Team

to call an emergency meeting and…

Excuse me.

What is it?

What? Okay.

What is it?

Someone is purchasing
a large quantity of Dosin Hightech shares.

Me?

If I were going to buy the shares,
I would've let you know.

Then just who is buying the shares?

You said you didn't release the article
about Taeyong's drug use, right?

It doesn't feel right.

It's worth almost 500 billion won.

It's neither an institution
nor a foreigner.

An individual has purchased this much.

I wonder who it is.

I'll stay and say what I have to say.

All right.

Go ahead.

I told you

to wait just three years
no matter what I did.

Yes, I do remember that.

And my patience has a limit.

Yes, a week.

Wait just a week longer.

I won't let you down.

Sir?

We won't need an emergency meeting.

Pardon?

Cancel it all.

This is a power struggle
over management rights?

A conglomerate can do anything
for their own good.

What's interesting is,
the true winner is someone else.

When the stock prices dropped
due to Hwang Taeyong's drug use,

a rich individual purchased
500 billion won worth

of Dosin Hightech's stock.

I wonder who it is. Aren't you curious?

There's a start-up company on the NASDAQ
that's exiting for 500 billion won.

What was the name?

I know. Most Lab, right?

A power struggle over management rights.
Five hundred billion won…

Most Lab.

COVER LETTER

Hi, Juhee.

Seungcheon, Dongkyung works
at a company named Most Lab, right?

Yes. Why do you ask?

Thanks.

Juhee?

JUHEE

Is something going on?

"Seoul Jeil High?"

LOOK FOR THE OLD WOMAN TO CHANGE BACK.
LET'S NEVER USE IT AGAIN…

We will now begin
Dosin Hightech's regular board meeting.

The first agenda
is the reappointment of CEO Seo Juntae.

As an outside director,
I propose an urgent agenda.

I suggest CEO Seo Juntae's dismissal.

Please excuse us.

My dismissal?

People are gossiping,
saying that I'm the one

who tipped off the press
about Taeyong's drug use.

Is it because of that?

-If then--
-The actual reason is something else.

These materials prove that
CEO Seo collected a slush fund worth

around 70 billion won
over the past 10 years.

During Dosin Hightech's
recapitalization in 2018,

he fabricated a loss
and embezzled 18 billion won.

He embezzled 12 billion won under the name
of wages and severance payments.

He embezzled 37 billion won under the name

of supporting insolvent affiliates.

What is going on?

I'm too ashamed to mention
his other corrupt deeds

such as nepotism hires and bribery.

This is a fraud.

It's dumbfounding
and not even worth explaining.

Besides, only a director has the right
to make a say in this meeting.

Hwang Taeyong has no right.

He does.

We've brought in a new CEO

who'll lead Dosin Hightech
after CEO Seo's dismissal.

This is

CEO Hwang Taeyong of Most Lab.

Before being my son,
he's the CEO of Most Lab.

I believe he is qualified enough
to become CEO of Dosin Hightech.

I'll leave the final decision
to all of you.

You won't be able to last long
without any shares.

Haven't you heard the news yet?

I sold off Most Lab

and secured Dosin Hightech's shares
with the money.

You bastard.

You're probably worried my father
might dump you and send you to prison.

He won't do that much
to his brother-in-law.

But Uncle,

I'm not like my father.

Seo Juntae,

you're finished.

I won't go down like this.

No way, Hwang Taeyong.

NA JUHEE

Na Juhee. It's me, Seo Juntae.

I'm calling to tell you something
that might intrigue you.

I didn't know

you'd make a way to come back
by securing shares on your own.

Have you been

testing me?

Of course not.

I tested my luck.

I'm so proud that
this is how you came back.

Do I not have to prove myself
to you anymore, then?

Taeyong,

you've more than proved yourself.

To me as well as everyone else.

But Mr. Jang.

You fooled me until the end.

It's only right I fire you immediately,

but you don't work for me anymore.

You work for Taeyong now.

Good luck.

Thank you, sir.

Are we back together after three years?

It sounds like you aren't so pleased.

How did you know?

What? Really?

Well, it was a joke.

When you make such a joke,
please smile a little.

You think?

Hey, Hwang Taeyong!

Is this why

you sold Most Lab off without handling
employment succession issues?

To release a false article
and secure your shares?

I won't ask you to understand me.

But you and I have
different situations and circumstances.

Most Lab may have been a dream to you,

but it was just a stepping stone to me.

Goodness.

A stepping stone
to succeeding Dosin Group?

Still, this isn't right.

Your colleagues
who trusted and followed you.

And me, who sincerely cared for you.

You sold them off for your success.

You damn jerk.

I'm Writer Na Juhee
of Documentary Note, DSTV.

CEO Hwang Taeyong,
could I have a moment to interview you?

Munki, go without me. I'll go on my own.

Yes, sir.

I'm certain Taeyong killed your father.

Do you have proof?

President Na's bloodstain

was on Taeyong's jacket.

SEOUL JEIL HIGH 3-2
LEE SEUNGCHEON

MAY 2011, JUNE 2012
ANOTHER CHANCE, D-5

THE SECRET BEHIND THE GOLDEN SPOON

"A golden spoon
that can make you become rich.

A weird old woman.

Eat three meals

at the house of a friend your age
with the golden spoon,

and your parents will be switched."

"Lee Seungcheon, Hwang Taeyong?"

"Swap your parents with your friend's."

What is all this about?

THE GOLDEN SPOON

Do you trust my father?

I must defeat my father.

If you could become rich,
would you swap your parents?

I'll do the interview.

I still like you.

If you don't want to regret it later,

you'd better stop this right now.

Hey.

What's all that in there?

Then kill Taeyong.
You said you'd do anything.

It was you, not me.

Mr. Smile.
