Vincenzo (빈센조)

Who the hell would do that?

They are investigating now. So we should wait.

It must have done some damage to Babel.

That's an understatement. It's as bad as getting hit by a tsunami.

What are we going to do?

Okay. I got it. See you tomorrow.

What the hell is this?

Please give me one more chance to get even.

I'll find them

and destroy them to pieces.

And just how will you find them?

Don't get ahead of yourself.

Just do what I tell you to do. Okay?

I know I can do something here!

Don't raise your voice.

You startled me.

I mean…

-Han-seo. -Sir.

Have you lost your mind

now that people call you the chairman?

No, that's not it. Sir.

Sir…

You're nothing but a puppet of mine.

Yes.

So don't you dare think for yourself.

Yes, I got it. Yes, sir.

The cause today's fire will be electrical overheating, not arson.

But it will still affect the stock prices,

so get the board members for an emergency meeting.

Oh, right.

And tell Wusang what I told you earlier.

Yes, sir.

Han-seo, go home now.

I'm glad I'm just a puppet.

I can just cut off the strings.

EPISODE 5

Cheers.

I'm glad that you're getting started.

They'll catch on to us if we keep blasting fireworks like we did today.

That's why we need to change our approach.

We'll use the law and the court, the two things we know best.

They'll be better at that than we are.

We need to beat them at their own game to make victory taste sweeter.

But Mr. Cassano.

You can't practice law in Korea.

But I have you.

Are you trying to make me take the heat in your place?

So that I go down alone?

I'll be the one putting the heat on them.

Let's focus on our next step for now.

Shall I guess what your next step is?

Since when could you read my mind?

I can't do that. I'm not a psychic.

I'm the person who knows Babel's dirty little secrets

more than anyone else in Korea.

Well, then…

let's see what you've got.

Babel's most vulnerable subsidiary.

The subsidiary that rigs the stock prices the most.

And the subsidiary whose ethics will be damaged at the greatest degree.

Which subsidiary is it?

THE ALCHEMISTS OF FUTURE SCIENCE

BABEL CHEMICALS

BABEL CHEMICALS

-Hey. -What?

Be honest. You don't do all 108 bows, right?

I bet you skip a few.

I don't skip anything.

What do you take me for? Seriously.

I bet you eat sausages behind his back. Right?

Pork belly and green onions too.

Shut your mouth, jerk.

Shut it, man. Help me, merciful Buddha.

Can't we eat out next time?

I come here once a month. We always eat vegetables.

-Hey, your nose is bleeding. -Darn it.

Hey, are you okay?

You've lost a lot of weight and even have nosebleeds.

Hey, I'm good.

Seriously.

We used to run all over the place 15 years ago, right?

Right.

Back then, you were no match for me.

Look how far you've come.

Stop kidding me.

You couldn't even look me in the eye.

Look at you. I should teach you a lesson.

-You're bringing out the old me. -You're ridiculous. Come on.

I ought to… Don't swear.

Watch it. It's heavy.

You should be careful.

Aren't you

Mr. Jang Han-seo?

Yes.

No, let me do that for you.

This is incredible. Amazing.

I'm a huge fan of yours.

Can I get a handshake?

-Sure. -Thank you.

Here. Have this.

-Thanks. -Sure.

You work out here.

In one of your interviews,

you said nothing is impossible for Babel.

I became a fan after reading how daring your corporate philosophy is.

Sorry about that.

Innovation and business go hand in hand.

"Creative destruction. Innovation is the driving force of economic growth."

Were you influenced by George Soros?

What?

Soros. I have so much respect for him.

I knew it. When I studied your investments in your subsidiaries,

you seemed flexible dealing with them.

-You were influenced by Joseph Schumpeter? -Right. Joseph…

That's right. I read his books. You know a lot.

Gosh, you're so smart.

Oh, right. Yesterday… Let me help you.

I saw the news about the fire at Babel Pharmaceuticals yesterday.

How could that happen?

I'm so sorry.

It was just a minor accident.

By the way,

I'm not sure if I should say this.

I read in the tabloid that it was actually arson.

Who said that? Don't believe what you read in tabloids.

I guess you don't know about these tabloids.

Sometimes, they are right.

-Hey. -By the way,

-I own Babel Pharmaceuticals' shares. -Leave.

Please. Please go if you're done. I need to work out.

Right. Sorry I got in the way.

Then I will go and sell my shares of Babel.

-They're worth nothing. Awful. -Hey.

This is mine.

What was that?

Come on. What are they writing in that tabloid?

You're not the boss.

The stock price of Babel Pharmaceuticals took another sharp dive.

Amid speculations that the fire last night at the storage room

was in fact an arson, the stocks plummeted.

Aren't you happy that I'm gone? No one is nagging you now.

I've missed you since the day you left the firm.

I even miss your nagging.

Wait until you make partner. You won't have time for this.

Did you watch the news about the fire at Babel Pharmaceuticals?

Of course, I did. My goodness.

All the materials burnt down.

Maybe they had it coming.

They did all sorts of evil things.

I think so, too.

It's like retributive justice. Right?

That's right.

I'm having a muscle spasm.

My gosh. I'll call you back.

Cha-young. Bye.

So you were the one who punished me.

I told you where Chairman Jang would be,

so you're buying.

That's the perfect reward for the quality of your intel.

Why did you go see him?

Facing the boss of the enemy before starting a fight

puts me at ease.

That's a weird way to find peace with yourself.

So what did you think?

Chairman Jang…

might not be the real boss.

I switched quotes from George Soros and Joseph Schumpeter,

but he didn't catch it.

No wonder. He did look like an airhead.

If he isn't, then who could be the real chairman?

Usually, when there's war between the Mafia,

it's customary to let each other know who the boss is.

That way, you can set up a meeting between the bosses

to resolve things diplomatically.

And the surest way to draw out the real boss behind the puppet is…

To destroy the puppet.

You know a lot about the Mafia.

I told you. People here are just as bad as the Mafia.

Anyway, to find out if Chairman Jang is a puppet or not,

I'll make him dry up

like a wet wipe out in the open.

Do you think I'll listen to you?

That's up to you.

But you should remember that freedom comes with a price.

ATTORNEY CHOI MYUNG-HEE

He's clean. He's very clean.

You know the lawyer from Italy? The one with Cha-young?

Vincenzo Cassano.

His name is Vincenzo Cassano?

Yes. I talked to someone from the Italian Lawyer Association.

His record is perfectly clean.

Is this your first rodeo?

A spotless record means something is up.

I knew you'd say that.

So I already talked to my guy at the NIS to take a look at his background.

No. Something is iffy about him.

No, I said he's clean.

Just because he's from Italy, he's a member of the Mafia or something?

I bet he was just a regular lawyer.

Where are you going?
