1 YEAR AGO

Thank you so much

for trusting me
and joining hands with Bumyoung.

You're wrong.



I chose Bumyoung because
I thought they'd make the best partner.

You haven't changed.

You never mix your personal
and professional life.

All right, then.
I'll be professional too.

Okay.

Mr. Kim.

Yes, Ms. Oh.

I'm looking forward to our collaboration.

Likewise.

EPISODE 8 UNLOCKED

You know he's just using you.

Just tell us the truth and…

You should've at least seen this coming.

Now.



Ready, action.

He's holding a gun.
What should I do now?

You're holding the phone
even in an emergency like this.

It must be very important to you.

I've always wondered
who's behind this jobless country boy,

and I guess I'll get my answer soon.

Don't get any funny ideas
and pretend you don't know anything

if you want to save your butt.

He just let you go?

Yes.

You let him take your phone?

That means Mr. Kim is kidnapped.

No.

It's all part of my plan.

Still, it's too dangerous.

There's no other way.

Even if we catch Mr. No,

what happened to Mr. Nam
and Mr. Kwak will happen again.

We'll only make more victims.

I know what you mean,

but I don't think that's a good idea.

Convince me
with your usual impeccable logic.

This is our best chance.

I'll be watching and hearing our enemies
in the middle of their camp.

What if they harm you?

To them, I'll just look like a phone.

Let's hear what Se-yeon thinks and--

No.

She'll oppose it even more strongly.

We don't have time.

This plan is just between us.

Have you lost your mind?

You should've stopped him.

This is not right.
I'll call the police and--

Come on. You saw it too.

Even the police is
under Bumyoung's influence.

We need solid evidence.

Yes, sir.

I'll change the motel.

Who he talks to, where he goes,

and who is behind him…

From now on, we'll find them all out.

BUMYOUNG MOTOR GROUP

Be quiet.

I can't hear it.

Oh, sorry.

What is it? Did something happen?

I just heard a gun shot.

No way.

Wasn't that a scream?

Oh.

Why?

It's a video game.

What?

This guy's got a nerve.

How could he be playing a video game
when he's brought to light?

He's not like Nam.

He doesn't need to run.

Because he's so sure

that it was a perfect crime.

Then we need conclusive evidence.

So Mr. Kim was right.

Yes.

What if he runs out of battery
or Mr. No turns off the phone

before he finds anything?

Then we can't track the phone anymore.
There will be nothing we can do.

ENTER PIN CODE TO UNLOCK SCREEN

Don't worry.

We have a plan for that too.

SHADOW

ENTER PIN CODE TO UNLOCK SCREEN

WRONG PIN CODE

SHADOW

Sir.

Sir?

Sir.

Jeez. You scared me.

Aren't you going to work?

Oh, my alarm…

Right.
Starting today, I don't have Kim Seon-ju.

"Starting today"?

CEO PARK IN-SEONG

Oh.

Right. Mr. Kim has called this morning.

He said everything is going all right.

How great is that?

I'm so worried.

Don't worry, Se-yeon.

Whatever happens to him,

he'll always find a way out.

He's smart, you know.

I'm not talking about Mr. Kim.

Then who are you talking about?

-I'm worried about you, In-seong.
-What?

Mr. Park.

Mr. Kim. What's up?

What…

Oh, it's just that…

I didn't get your approval yet.

Approval for what?

When you started working here,

you said you'd only use
the electronic approval system.

But you haven't been checking it
since yesterday.

What am I supposed to do?

Seriously.

Right.

I was just about to do it.

-What…
-Follow me.

WORK REPORT OF FIRST HALF OF 2022

DISBURSEMENT OF SECOND HALF OF 202

This is going to take forever.

That's so many.

So the operating revenue…

No, never mind.

Oh, it's the next year's second half…

It's about the disbandment
of the AR Glass Team.

AR Glass?

But it functions perfectly.

But we agreed to consider
the team with the lowest ROI.

RO…

We failed to attract investment

for the Series B in Singapore.

We must decide
if we should dissolve the team…

Or ask Bumyoung for an extra budget, sir.

What do you say?

I need some time to think.

It's an important matter, so…

You must make a decision
before the meeting with the HQ.

Of course I will.

And when's the meeting?

Tomorrow.

What?

It's tomorrow.

Tomorrow?

Tomorrow…

Four hundred?

Silver Lining's AR Glass Team
only provides the source technology.

As for the product development
and content creation,

our subcontractors are in charge.

So you're saying,
the cancellation of the AR Glass business

will threaten 400 people's livelihood.

But continuing a low-margin business

will threaten Silver Lining.

And I have to make a decision
by tomorrow.

Yes, sir.

I don't have time.
I should call Mr. Kim right now.

PARK IN-SEONG

PARK IN-SEONG

-What's up?
-Mr. Kim.

I told you to wait until I call you.

It's an emergency.

They want to close the AR Glass business.

But that's…

Wait. Someone's coming. Hang up.

But Mr. Kim…

He hung up.

SMARTPHONE ONLY

Hello.

Hello, sir. Salute.

I heard you were discharged.

It's been a long time.

How are you?

Well, as you can see,
I'm making use of my major.

Here.

You can unlock it, right?

Oh, cracking a PIN code is a piece of cake.

I'll come back after work.

I'll see you then.

All right. Let's see what's inside.

What are you opening this for?

Gosh, you're so loud. Just be quiet.

It's not In-seong's birthday either.

Why wouldn't it open?

Because it's a lock.
It's supposed to lock things up.

Why don't you just put it
under his pillow or something?

Just a pillow or something?

This is about In-seong's future.

The shaman said it must be put
near what he cherishes.

That shaman looked like a crook.

What?

You're just throwing money
out of the window.

Stop it. You're going to jinx it.

Give it to me.

Let's see.

What are you doing?

You said it should be put
near the thing he cherishes the most.

When he was doing the acting,

he was watching this TV all the time.

Talk about
throwing money out of the window.

Ouch.

Are you okay?

I've always envied CEOs.

I was always in the position
where I had to be chosen.

Both when I was auditioning
and job hunting.

"Why wouldn't they choose me?"

"Man."

"I wish I had a choice too."

But now I have a choice

which can affect

someone's life, happiness,

and a company's future,

I'm worried.

Which makes me admire Mr. Kim even more.

I read something
when I followed him to a golf meeting.

"Pros' balls go as planned,

and amateurs' balls go as feared."

What you need right now

is a plan, not worries.

I'll help.

So you can't unlock it?

There must be some kind
of a security program installed.

I can't seem to crack it.

You can try all combinations possible.

I've tried that too.

I've run all the combinations possible,
but it wouldn't work.

-Does that even make sense?
-No.

I've never seen something like this either.

I mean, it just doesn't make sense.

Unless someone keeps
changing the code,

this shouldn't be possible.

Yes.

I'll be right there.

Se-yeon, come on.

-So he called you.
-Yes.

He said Mr. No is on the move.

Take us to the BY Hotel.

Only those who have Mr. Oh's permission

can enter the lounge in BY Hotel.

That means they might talk about
important matters today.

-Hello, Mr. Oh.
-Hi.

I've seen the new product.

-Thank you, sir.
-Thank you.

We should play a round sometime.

-I'd be honored to.
-Good.

Just call me anytime.

Thanks.

He's getting late.

I'll call him.

Don't. I can wait.

He's a busy man.

Right. What about Baro 4.0?

We're still looking into it.

Keep watching

Ms. Oh and Mr. Park.

Speaking of which,
about Mr. Park's phone…

Wait.

I don't think this is the right time
to talk about that matter.

Why did he have to stop him
at that point?

I cleary heard the sound.

of the text message alarm
before Mr. Oh cut him off.

I think I heard it too.

What are you doing?

Who were you texting with?

No. Are you?

Give it back.

It's just that timing was funny.

I saw you text someone
after you heard our destination.

Did you tell them
that we're wiretapping?

Stop the bullshit. Give it to me.

Sorry.

This time, I need to hear it too.

That's…

LITTLE ONE

What…

You're going to leave me too, right?

Suit yourself.

I'm all alone anyway.

Oh, no.

I thought I caught him.

What do we do? I'm scared.

Darn it.

Would you drive me home today?

Luckily, he wasn't a betrayer.

No.

And now I have something to do.

It tastes amazing.

Aren't you hungry, Detective M?

"Detective"?

We were undercover earlier.

Which kind of makes us detectives.
Don't you think?

Stop beating around the bush
and get to the point.

Sorry about the misunderstanding.

When did you exchange numbers
with Min-a, by the way?

Doesn't she have a mother?

Her mother has passed away
when she was little.

Still, she's such a happy kid.
I'm so proud of her.

It's because her family is rich.

Her father is the CEO of a big company.

What's happening here?

What are you doing at this late hour?

We skipped dinner because of work, so…

You can go rest.

He'll wash the dishes.

This is my job.

I'm paid for it.

Gosh, it's bland.

How are you going to eat this?

Should I add some salt?

Do you like spicy food?

Yes.

What about you?

Thanks for cooking.

Oh, my gosh.

You should try some too.
It's really good.

Here.

-Are you okay?
-You can't handle spicy, can you?

You should've told me.

So you like your food mild,
unlike how you look.

Is it just me or is mine actually smaller?

It's just you.

Is it?

Okay, it's just me.

We're a family now.

A family means a group of people
who live and eat together.

Just like us.

I don't need family.

I see.

Where's your watch?

It seemed expensive, so I sold it.

Wow, your great passion for money…

It never changes.

-Are you being sarcastic?
-No.

No way.

What are you going to do
with all that money?

Do you want to buy a building?

I've never thought about it.

What are you going to do
with all that money?

Do you want to buy a building?

Cover.

One, two. Four more.

Two.

Ouch.

-Let's call it a day.
-Thanks, Coach.

-About tomorrow's match…
-Yes?

Don't try too hard.

But it's a national team trial.

I know. And you're still in your 2nd grade.

There will be another chance next year.

Clean it up before you go.

Okay. Thanks, Coach.

Let's go.

Oh, right.

It wasn't raining earlier.

Here.

Oh, you don't need to do this.

You know what to do tomorrow, right?

Let's go.

You should be playing, not your son.

2000 SYDNEY OLYMPIC TRIALS FOR BOXING

Nice.

Move.

Come on out.

Come out.

Get a grip and come out.

Come on out.

Don't waste your energy here!

About tomorrow's match…

Don't try too hard.

You love money, don't you?

Are you crazy?

After all I've done for you,
this is how you repay me?

Oh, yeah?

You shouldn't have been nice to me
in the first place.

Okay?

You should've just

left me alone in that hellhole.

Stop.

Hey!

The meeting is tomorrow.

What should I do with the AR Glass?

I guess I should just close that business.

But I want to keep it going.

Sir, have you made up your mind?

The meeting is only in an hour.
Ms. Oh…

Ms. Oh will be at the meeting too.
You don't want to embarrass yourself.

He will talk about it at the meeting.

Can't you see I'm talking to him?

Please wait inside.

How about we tell them you're sick

and postpone the meeting for a few days?

About that AR Glass…

Mr. Kim wouldn't give up on it, would he?

We've seen how greatly it functions.

The problem is that
we haven't found a business item

that can make profits
out of that great function.

Which is why the business is in the hole.

Do you think…

we can find a way to save

both Silver Lining and our subcontractors?

Has Mr. Kim called you yet?

No. I guess he can't reply at the moment

for some reason.

Mr. Kim?

Hey, Mom

Could you order us a TV?
I'll give you the money.

A TV? Why?

Your dad broke it.

I'll pay. What size?

Right. I'm not sure.

It must be written there.

Where?

I can't find it.

Then go to the store and see…

What? I don't know anything
about electronic devices.

This is so frustrating.

Mom, I'll take care of it. Bye.

Follow me.

Come on.

Hey.

Darn it.

As we've reported earlier,

I suggest we dissolve the AR Glass Team

due to its low rate of profit.

Sir?

No.

We're expanding the business.

Sir.

The business is losing money now.

And you want to expand
the business, not close it?

Time has changed.

You can't run a business based on
compassion. You'll ruin it all.

I know. Time has changed.

The sales of offline channels like

small shops, department stores,
and franchise stores are going down

while

those of online channels are skyrocketing.

People nowadays visit offline stores

just to see the products in person.

I'm looking for something for my mother.

Something she can brag about
at her school reunion.

-This way, sir.
-Let's go with this one.

Mom, nobody buys clothes
in department stores nowadays.

They're much cheaper on the Internet.

Then why did you come here?

To try them on.

The final hurdle of online shopping

is that you can't see the products
in person.

And Silver Lining's AR Glass is
the solution to it.

How are we supposed to solve that
with just a pair of glasses?

Whether you're at home or in your office,

with our AR Glass on…

Let's see.

You can compare
Bumyoung Electronics' 65 inch TV

with 75 inch TV…

That should be big enough.

…and Bumyoung Motor Group's SUV
with a small SUV

through the vivid image
created by the glasses.

Once this technology is commercialized,

AR Glasses will become like smartphones.

Anyone and everyone in the modern world

will use them in their everyday lives.

Mr. Park, are you sure about this?

You're saying

you want to invest more money
in a losing business. It's risky.

The world has changed,
and the investors need to change too.

They don't want to take risks

and don't care about increasing values.

And therefore,

they only care about businesses
that are already successful.

I know it makes sense, in terms of ROI.

Which is why you don't want
to invest in shaky businesses.

But we must not fear of taking risks.

This AR Glass business is

Silver Lining
and Bumyoung's win-win project.

It will be the next necessity

in the era
of the fourth industrial revolution.

All right.

I want Bumyoung Distribution,
Electronics, and Motor Group

to share the product database
with Silver Lining.

Sir.

Yes.

You did well.

I'm so relieved.

That was a close call.

I'm glad that
Mr. Kim called you before the meeting.

No, he didn't call.

What?

Then how…

Oh, it's open.

Gosh.

Oh.

How did you open it?

You said you didn't know the passcode.

I thought I didn't.

I had no idea this would be the passcode.

Was it 1234?

Man.

No.

It was your birthday.

My birthday?

-He used my birthdate?
-Yes.

Well…

I didn't know you two were so close.

My birthday…

-I'm tired.
-What?

You like it, huh?

Oh, dear.

In-seong, you worked hard.

Mr. Kim?

I'm calling you
while Mr. No is taking a shower.

Guess what I did at today's meeting. I…

What do you mean?

Sure. It sounds interesting.

Let's proceed as you say.

Yes, sir. You made the right decision.

It's a wise choice, sir.

You can't do this.

Let go.

It's okay.

You can leave now.

Mr. Park, this is very rude of you.

Can't you see
we're in the middle of a meeting?

I'm here to take part in the meeting.

Today's agenda is

"Who killed Mr. Kwak Sam-soo?"

I understand you're upset
about your employee's death,

but the police said it was suicide.

No, it was concluded as suicide.

Somebody murdered Kr. Kwak

and tried to frame me for it.

And my conclusion is
that the culprit is within this group.

That's nonsense.

Do you even hear yourself?

What? The culprit?

What are the security guards doing?
Get him out of here!

Let's go.

It won't open. Try that one.

This one's locked too.

None of you can leave this room.

We have a problem.

Mr. Oh is locked in the conference room.
Come on and help.

Mr. Park.

If that's what really happened to Mr. Kwak,

we can't just let it slide.

You've got to go to the police
to ask for help,

not this meeting room.

You said the culprit is within this group.

Am I on the list too?

Yes.

And you're one of the prime suspects.

What are you doing?
Let's get him out of here.

Stop it.

You can't be doing this here.
You need to leave now.

Get out!

You must leave.

Sir, I'll escort you out.

Wait. That's the only door out.

I'll escort you out
as soon as it quiets down.

-Get out!
-You need to leave now.

Mr. Kim?

I'm calling you
while Mr. No is taking a shower.

Guess what I did at today's meeting. I…

I found it.

I found the confidential document.

What do you mean?

You found the confidential document?

Sorry I'm late.

Don't worry about it.

You're working for the country, so…

Mr. Oh has it.

Does that mean he did this to you
to get Baro 4.0's beta test result?

And to Mr. Kwak…

Once we get the document back,

we can ask that to Mr. Oh.

Let's search Mr. Oh's office first.

How do we sneak in there?

I need you to distract him.

Ms. Jung and Mr. MG
will do the searching meanwhile.

Luckily for us, there are
no security cameras in his office.

Because he's a shady man.

You just need to stall.

I told you. None of us can leave this room.

I didn't want to lock this room either,
you know.

Could you all please sit down?

The whole thing is up to you, In-seong.

I need you to stall as long as possible.

I found it.

SILVER LINING BUSINESS PROPOSAL

This is not it.

Get him!

This way, sir.

What a nut.

-Yes?
-Did you find it?

Not yet.

He's on his way up there.

No. Could you stop him for a little longer?

What's happening?

Sir, let me take you outside.

It's here.

We found it.

CONFIDENTIAL

Is this how you manage this building?

I need to take a shower.
I want to get changed.

-Yes, sir.
-Jeez.

I can't open my eyes.

Darn it.

-I'll get the clothes ready, sir.
-Good.

What the heck…

Sir, your clothes are ready.

Has someone entered this room
while I was gone?

No, sir.

-Call Mr. No in.
-Oh, no.

Are you okay, sir?

Mr. Park was acting strange today.

Take a look into it.

Yes, sir.

I'm glad you're safe.

CONFIDENTIAL

Nothing special happened, right?

-No.
-No.

Okay. Shall we?

Was it the sprinkler's malfunction?

It was Mr. Park's doing.

Mr. Park?

He suddenly broke into the meeting

and said the agenda was,
"Who killed Mr. Kwak Sam-soo?"

That's what I heard.

So Detective Choi gave this to Mr. Oh?

I suppose he found it in Mr. Kwak's car.

I think so too.

Mr. Kwak said
he had something to give to me.

CONFIDENTIAL

BARO 4.0 BETA TEST RESULT

DURING THE BETA TEST

A SERIOUS ERROR HAS BEEN FOUND

He probably wanted to give this to me
and tell me the truth.

I'm on my way, sir.

I'll go check and get back to you.

MR. KIM SEON-JU

He finally started to move.

I'll turn on the GPS tracker. Follow me.

We must catch him on the spot.

IMPYEONG MENTAL HOSPITAL

He's going to Impyeong Mental Hospital.

Why did you want to see me?

I think he's heading to a room inside.

ROOM 316

How is he?

Mr. Nam?

We must hurry.

2KM UNTIL IMPYEONG MENTAL HOSPITAL

I thought we weren't close enough
to have a fancy dinner together.

Was it you?

What do you mean?

I'm talking about Mr. Kwak.

Did you kill him?

Like you killed Kim Seon-ju?

No.

Kim Seon-ju is…

still alive.

UNLOCK MY BOSS

The resentment from the betrayal

is all over the place!

Are you sure it's Mr. Kim?

Is it really possessed…

And the person who died
from the medical malpractice…

My boss is in there!

Why do we have to respect the law

when they don't give a damn about it?

Was it you? I saw a report on Baro 4.0.

You kidnapped Kim Seon-ju, the CEO.

You don't seem surprised.

It's true that I had vain hope.

I'll make a suggestion
that you cannot deny.

When there's no way out,
there's one thing you can do.
