When Tae Oh enters the office, chairman Kang tells everyone to leave him alone with Tae Oh
When the other three are gone, Chairman Kang asks Tae Oh.what kind of leader he thinks he is. He also asks if Tae Oh assumes he’s a good man. Tae Oh replies that he wouldn’t like his response but Chairman manages to get to his skin, even making Tae Oh say he would resign when chairman mentions how he. turned his innocent father into a criminal.
Chairman then warns him not to let his emotions show as long as he’s working with him. Tae Oh then understands he was testing him.
We see chairman making a speech written by Tae Oh. He gets dramatic and then tells everyone to become a monster to survive at Kangah. Tae Oh who is watching him believes that Kangah is worth being a monster for. The speech impressed everyone.
After the meeting, Tae Oh and In ah are watching Chairman, his two sons and professor Chae leaving the building. He predicts that the professor will soon be fired. In ah asks if Seonju would naturally succeed in his position. Tae Oh replies that what Seonju really wants is Kangah’s control center. Taking over the cooperation will be his shortcut there.
Next we see Tae coming to greet Chairman Kang in his office. He has resumed work in his company. As he watches the chairman, Tae Oh tells himself that the real game has started now.
Five years later.
Chairman Kang is swimming in a pool when suddenly, he becomes unconscious underwater. Next, we see the Kang family rushing into a hospital room to see Chairman Kang. They had heard he was in danger but he tells them he seems fine and asks if they are disappointed but they say they aren’t. All these while, Tae Oh is there with them.
As the family are returning in an elevator, they talk about how uncomfortable they are seeing Tae Oh. Inju adds that their father might make him the youngest secretary. Seonju says that he hasn’t made trouble in the five years he’s been at the company. Inju adds that he doesn’t like how close they are. Then Mrs Kang tells Inju’s wife to caution her husband. Inju, feeling slighted, grasps his mother’s shoulder and tells her to check her husband first before telling that to his wife. Seonju gets angry with him and they leave the elevator in a frosty state.
In the next scene, Tae Oh enters Chairman Kang’s hospital room. He tells him he is ready to be discharged. Chairman Kang asks if he has done what he told him to do. Tae Oh replies that he has. Then Chairman talks about supporting a certain chairman Kim Sangsu at Hanmi’s political party to become the party representative so he could have a chance at winning the presidential elections. After he wins, Chairman Kang would begin the Royal road project.
Flash back to a year ago when Chairman Kang showed Tae Oh a large piece of land saying he would build a country inside Korea.. Chairman Kang asks Tae oh if his dream seems absurd but Tae Oh replies that the cooperation center will make his dream come true.
In the present, Chairman Kang talks about how his dream will materialize now that he has purchased the West Coast site.
Meanwhile, In ah is getting irritated at a man making his presentation at his office. When Tae oh sends him a message that Chairman Kang has been discharged, his mood relaxes and he apologizes for his outburst.
We see Seonju and a certain old man relaxing by shooting in a field. However, they are being watched by some security agents but not only them, an anonymous hacker seems to be watching them as well, amused at the scene before him.
Tae ho is working at his office when he receives a message on his computer. He opens it and sees it’s a video of Seonju and Sun dong relaxing together by shooting guns.
That night, Tae ho, In ha and Hye won are gathered talking about Kang Seonju’s alliance with Sun Dong, an enemy of Chairman Kang. They wonder what he will achieve by allying with such a man knowing his father is against him being the party’s representative instead of Kim Sangsu.
At a party conference, Jo Sundong is elected as the party representative for Hanmi’s party. The news spreads around.
Next, we see Chairman Kang’s explosive anger in his office as he rages at Tae ho, wondering how the candidate he was supporting Kim Sangsu didn’t win.
Meanwhile, Seunju and his mother are celebrating after going behind Chairman Kang’s back.
Whereas Chairman Kang is so angry he nearly has a heart attack but Tae ho quickly helps him with his pills. He tells Chairman Kang not to get emotional but Chairman Kang denies being emotional and orders Tae Oh to find out who was supporting Jo sundong.
Meanwhile, In ah is sparring violently at a gym while Tae Oh and Hye won are discussing on top of a roof. She asks Tae Oh how Chairman Kang will feel if he found out that his son Seonju betrayed him and that he Tae Oh knew about it all along. Tae Oh reminds her that he isn’t the only one who knows but she exonerates herself since Chairman Kang doesn’t know her. Then Tae Oh asks if she’s getting married to In ha since he has already proposed but she replies that she told him she wasn’t ready yet. Tae Oh nods disappointedly. Then the conversation shifts as Tae Oh tells her they need to find evidence against Seonju. He tells her to get him one within two days.
The next day, Hye won enters an office where a middle aged man Oh Gyeong Cheol sits. Oh Gyeong Cheol is an aide to Jo Sundong. She quietly sits in front of him. He gets distracted and asks her what she wants to talk about. She says she knows he doesn’t like her because she’s outspoken. Oh Gyeong Cheol admits it but says it’s not the real reason. He doesn’t like her because he can’t see through her and he doesn’t trust people he can’t see through, just like Jo sundong. That laugh over it. He then invites her to an Aides party but she rejects it due to an appointment. Oh Gyeong Cheol then leaves the office.
Kang Huiji goes to confront her mother in her office about a forced marriage she intends for her with the son of an influential family. Huiju adamantly refuses to marry him especially giving his bad reputation but Mrs Kang feels he’s the best for her highlighting that everyone in their family had an arranged marriage. Huiju angrily says she doesn’t want to be miserable like her then to her mother’s shock, tells her she would kill herself if she insists on the marriage. She then leaves in a foul mood. On her way out, she contemplates calling Tae Oh but decides against it.
Meanwhile, Hye won enters the establishment where the aides are having their party. They are in a room, plotting to oust Chairman Kang and support Seonju instead. Their conversation is interrupted when some waiters come to bring their meals. They are unaware that there is a recorder underneath their own table recording their conversation. Hye Won is in a nearby room listening to everything they are saying. As she leaves, she slips money to the owner of the establishment.
Tae oh receives a message from Hye Won to come to In ha’s place. The three are gathered and Hye Won tells them what she had discovered. Seonju plans to sponsor Jo Sundong and control the national assembly Moel and Molit. They would use their power to advance the road project despite Kangoh’s collapse and the economic failure. Then they would destroy the road project and accuse chairman Kang of embezzlement and negligence.
Once Chairman Kang is ousted, they would separate the cooperation center from Kangoh. Tae Oh is surprised by this. Kang Seonju plans to control everything with the backing of the blue house once Jo Sundong becomes president. The three admit that his plan is on a high tier and wonder if they’ll be able to overcome him. He worries that they will succeed but Tae Oh tells him to believe in him. Seonju and Jo Sundong’s plan won’t work as long as he’s alive.
The hacker meets with Tae Oh at a coffee shop. He gives him a save Africa brochure sponsored by a foundation called Jang Noik foundation. He tells Tae oh that it’s thanks to messy foundations like this one that they were able to meet.
Meanwhile, Mrs Kang meets with her husband’s doctor to ask about his health, wanting to know if he’s hiding anything but the doctor is uncomfortable and tries to leave but Mrs Kang lets him know she’s aware of his secret. How he’s trying to make his son who’s suffering from a drug addiction and was fired from John Hopkins hospital to become the head of surgery at Kangoh hospital. The doctor becomes scared.
Tae Oh comes to give a report to Chairman Kang about his findings telling him that a foundation Save Africa donated 5 million dollars to Jo sundong’s daughter’s swiss account after embezzling funds meant for Sudan refugees. The person behind the foundation is his wife and son, showing their support for Jo sundong. Chairman Kang is shocked when he hears that someone else is involved with them.
Next, we see Mrs Kang and the Attorney Chu meeting up at the shooting range. Kang Seonju joins them and later speaks to Attorney Chu Jin in private. He tries to convince him to turn against Chairman Kang who has gone against his father’s legacy and supports him to take over. He tells Attorney to bring him his father’s evidence of embezzlement since he placed Attorney in charge of the Milton branch. At first, Attorney refuses but Seonju calls him a puppet who has been used by his father. He tells him Tae Oh would soon take his place and promises him his own global law firm if he helps him out.
The hacker hacks into Seonju’s phone that night and the next morning sees the message between Attorney and Seonju. Attorney accepts to work with Seonju as long as he keeps the promise he made him to give him own law firm. The hacker knows Seonju wouldn’t keep it and true to his words, Seonju says to himself that he made a promise to Attorney Chu but he never agreed that he would keep the promise. That he would pretend to do so. The hacker isn’t surprised by how admission. The hacker then sends Tae Oh the messages between Seonju and Attorney Chu. Tae Oh wonders what the promise between them could mean.
Attorney Chu sends Seonju a USB file containing evidence of his embezzlement at Milton. The hacker sees it as well and informs Tae Oh.
Now, Tae Oh lets Chairman Kang know that he’s aware he’s the real owner of Milton and not Attorney Chu. Chairman Kang then asks if he would use the knowledge to blackmail him but Tae Oh says he wouldn’t but that Seonju would know that he’s gotten his Achilles heel. He finally shows him video evidence of Seonju meeting with Jo Sundong and Attorney Chu. Chairman Kang is annoyed by the betrayal.
Meanwhile, Mrs Kang and Seonju are having tea and she tells him Chairman Kang is very ill, that his doctor told him his heart could stop at any moment. Seeing her nonchalant behavior, Seonju asks if she isn’t worried about him. Mrs Kang tells him she is. After all, they are married. Then she tells him to focus on doing whatever Jo Sundong wants. Seonju feels he’s been used but Mrs Kang tells him not to worry because he’ll still inherit Kangoh. However, Seonju looks uncomfortable.
Chairman Kang asks Tae Oh to call Attorney Chu to his office. Tae Oh immediately calls him. He is nervous as he agrees to come over to see Chairman Kang.
In ah picks Hye won up and tells her to see the ocean with him. However, it turns out it’s for them to watch the ocean on the TV screen. He then asks her to marry him. Hye agrees only when he takes over the Kangoh group. He asks her if she believes Tae Oh’s plan will succeed but Hye says she doesn’t because she believes in In ah (what a two timing…give me patience lord)
Attorney Chu along with other staff are gathered in Chairman Kang’s office. He tells them he wants the center to be directly under his control and wants to change management. Tae Oh takes all their phones in case they want to leak confidential information. Attorney Chu gets fidgety and after a while, we don’t see him at the meeting. He’s inside the restroom, panicking and frustrated when Tae Oh suddenly approaches him and asks why he left. Attorney Chu tries to hide his discomfort and refuses his phone when Tae Oh returns it to him. He goes back to the meeting watching Tae Oh and Chairman Kang whisper among themselves.
Next, we see Mrs Kang at her garden watering her plants when Seonju enters to give her terrible news, that his father is restructuring the center. But Mrs Kang is calm and tells him that Chairman Kang wouldn’t be able to do whatever he wants but in a shareholders meeting, Chairman Kang makes Seonju wash his hand away from the company and assigns him to revitalize the dying cyber section under the center with Professor Chae whom he had fired as his assistant. Before then, Tae ho had visited Professor Chae at a dilapidated building where he told him he would restore his position.
Seonju is so angry that he thrashes his entire office. Hye won and In ha sees the recent development in the news and smiled, realizing that Tae Oh had indeed won.
But then, we see a group of prosecutors storm Kangoh under the direction of the main prosecutor. Turned out that the Chief Prosecutor had received an anonymous email that could completely ruin Chairman Kang. Now, the prosecutors are turning the company upside down. They even raid Attorney Chu’s office leaving him in a state of shock
Meanwhile, Mrs Kang and Chairman Kang are having an argument in his office. She is trying to blackmail him with something he thinks is a lie but Mrs Kang says he can believe her or not. Chairman Kang then has a heart attack and slumps to the ground. He tries to get his pills that rolled on the ground. Mrs Kang rushes to help him but hesitates, thinking otherwise. She then walks away, leaving him to die.
Chairman Kang is writhing in pain on the ground when Tae Oh comes inside. He picks up the pill and looks him dead in the eye, making no effort to help him. The episode ends.
