Undercover Miss Hong (언더커버 미쓰홍)

UNDERCOVER MISS HONG

The Witch of Yeouido is coming.

You have been promoted to team manager at the Financial Supervisory Service,

and confirmed probe into the slush fund of Hanmin Investment & Securities.

The prosecution and Financial Supervisory Service

have already formed a task force team.

HANMIN'S DECADE-LONG ALLEGATIONS

"Yehppee"?

Yehppee and I

are getting the ledger together for whistle blowing purposes.

You can pick up the slush fund ledger

at the president's office on the 12th floor in Hanmin's head office.

You could end up receiving a prison sentence.

Yes. I'm prepared for as much.

- Is it not there? - This can't be.

Maybe someone at Hanmin

found out about you and President Kang?

This is undoubtedly a warning.

Keum-bo!

Go undercover as some entry-level minion?

They wouldn't imagine you doing this in their wildest dreams.

All right, sorry.

I mean, you're 35.

Who would ever think you're in your twenties?

I'll proceed with the Hanmin undercover investigation.

I'll find Yehppee within three months

and retrieve the slush fund ledger.

Let's hurry up. The president is waiting for us.

It's not like he's waiting out in the hot sun.

The three Yehppee candidates are

So Gyeong-dong, Bang Jin-mok, and Cha Jung-il.

His assistant will have to know

who Yehppee is.

Befriend that assistant and just get the intel you need.

Then focus on finding Yehppee.

What's with the loitering?

Please welcome President Shin Jung-woo.

Hello.

I'm Shin Jung-woo.

Ms. Hong, you've been appointed as President Shin's new assistant.

Who says the new president will have a new assistant?

Who would you say the late President Kang was closest to at the company?

If there was a general manager he was close to, they might help you out.

Come on. Who would help out an assistant with no boss?

I could come with you.

We're roommates.

How about this?

You swoop in and show President Shin how capable an assistant you are.

Not a single person here can answer my question?

These are anticipated Q&As for the chairman.

Must read!

I hope this works out.

That means I can continue working

- as your assistant, right? - Yes.

Thanks.

I spent all night racking my brain, wondering if I should visit Mr. So

with a box of expensive ribs.

You mean Mr. So Gyeong-dong in the Trading Division?

President Kang's mentor

and a well-respected, seasoned veteran in Hanmin.

He's got to be Yehppee.

There's something fishy.

How can you trust her?

You mean Go Bok-hee?

Damn it.

Why does he work in the dark?

My poor heart.

Keum-bo.

Hong Keum-bo.

Have we met, mister?

May I ask you what your name is?

What do you want my name for?

You can't have my beeper number.

I have a boyfriend.

Wait, I…

Ta-da.

Hong Keum-bo, Shin Jung-woo.

Here.

That's yours,

and this is mine.

Every time you're struggling with a hard decision,

I'll be by your side.

And every time you have an important decision to make,

I'll be waiting with you.

- Keum-bo. - Yeah?

We should tell our seniors and colleagues

about our relationship, right?

We should keep it a secret.

I'll deny it all.

I'm not sure

I have much faith in your poker face.

I'm confident

that I won't get caught.

Really?

Most definitely.

Hello, sir. It's Shin Jung-woo.

It's been a while.

I was just wondering…

If you knew what Hong Keum-bo has been up to.

I'm back.

Jang-mi, you look extra tired today.

I ran a bit. It's been a while.

Being young must be so nice.

Now that everyone's home, how about a late-night snack?

How does rotisserie chicken sound? It'll be my treat.

Yes!

But it's almost midnight. We can't order any deliveries.

Oh, right.

The RA made that very clear at the orientation.

It does sound really tasty though.

Hello, sir.

I'm calling from the women's dorm, Room 301.

Can we get two rotisserie chickens?

Two bottles of beer too.

Thank you. See you there.

Do you know what sets humans apart from animals?

It's that we humans use tools.

- Jang-mi. - Why me?

Do you expect me to do it then?

This is clearly a job for the youngest.

Jang-mi.

Heave-ho.

- Heave-ho. - Heave-ho.

Stop it.

- Heave-ho. - Heave-ho.

Heave-ho.

Keep going.

- Cheers. - Cheers.

Eat up.

JEOM'S ROTISSERIE CHICKEN

CREDIBILITY

SUSPICIOUS

This is so good.

Here. Take it.

I'm not a kid. What am I supposed to do with this?

Hong Jang-mi.

As of today, you're officially recognized as a resident of Room 301.

"As of today"?

I've lived here for three days already.

Come on, I let you have the pink one.

Thanks.

Who is she to recognize me or whatever?

What's your deal? Don't dig through my stuff!

Wait, I'm not…

- No, hold on. - Let go, you thief!

What? Thief?

- Bok-hee. - Are you okay?

Hey!

You thief!

Who's that at this hour?

Bok-hee.

If she were looking to steal,

she would've gone for your wallet, not your notebook.

Maybe she already did.

You two, search her pockets.

Go on and search them. Search away.

It's your RA. Open the door.

Put it away.

I heard you shout earlier, Ms. Go.

Are you experiencing issues with your roommates again?

You are one demerit point away from eviction.

We're all great friends here.

Maybe the TV was too loud?

We were watching a comedy show.

Right.

We're really into this series, you see.

It's past midnight.

In fact, it's color bars time.

This is the only way.

Bok-hee's bag fell over,

so I was just trying to be nice

and pick up what fell out of it.

That's when she came in and treated me like some thief.

No, I didn't.

I've always been an honest, tax-paying citizen.

Taxes? You haven't even received your first paycheck yet.

Ms. Kim, she's lying through her teeth.

She's a bad seed!

That's enough.

Ms. Go, bring me your bag.

Pardon?

Do you see anything missing?

No.

Any missing money?

It is all there, but…

What about this?

It's a notebook from work, but I use it as my diary.

With no financial loss or missing property,

it'd be difficult to call this theft.

It seems there's been a little misunderstanding.

Let's just settle this amicably.

RIGHT UNDER THE NOSE AND IN THE LINE OF FIRE

Chuseok, the nation's biggest holiday, is fast approaching.

With a four-day holiday this year,

train stations and bus terminals across the country

are bustling with people heading home to spend time with their families.

Let's find out more about the holiday traffic.

The nation's 20 million people are once again on the move for Chuseok.

The highways have come to resemble massive parking lots

with the gridlocks caused by the influx of home bound traffic.
