The Banker (더 뱅커)

I'll take the representative role for creditors...

of Haesan Construction.

I'm glad you made that choice.

I'll reach out...

to the creditors for a meeting.

I have a condition.

A condition?

Before starting my role, I'd like to go through an actual inspection.

Haesan Construction and Daehan Bank has a voluntary agreement,

so I believe we have the right to have an inspection.

Is there a reason why you want to do that?

If it's a company I can't save,

there's no need for me to step down from my auditor position.

I'll check if that company has any hope first.

In addition,

if we hastily summon the creditors,

they'll think Haesan Construction is in default on the loan.

And that could form another group to collect their funds.

You have a point.

I understand.

You can take the position after you finish...

the inspection.

Also,

please return all my staff back to the department.

It's impossible to inspect a company by myself.

All right. I'll have Ms. Han...

make the changes.

However, Mr. Noh.

I'll give you two weeks to carry on the inspection.

I need you to finish it before the time is up.

Reviving a company is all about timing.

Yes, sir.

I'll contact the other banks who will join as creditors.

I'll let Haesan Construction know...

about the inspection as well.

It hasn't been long since we left, but it feels awkward, doesn't it?

I know, right?

I missed your touch.

Anyways, it's nice to be back together.

Hello, sir!

I'm going to kill you if you do that again.

Why do you think the bank sent us elsewhere,

then brought us back to the Audit Office?

I'm not sure.

Hello, sir. - I said, "I'm going to kill you."

Who are you planning on killing, Mr. Seo?

Oh, sir! You're here.

Have you all been doing well?

Yes, sir! - Yes, sir!

I'll be straightforward and cut it short.

We have to go on an inspection to Haesan Construction.

Haesan Construction? Why would we do that?

I'll explain on the way.

Wow, it's huge!

It's because all the subsidiaries use the same office building.

You don't see buildings like these in Gongju, do you?

Don't provoke me.

It's pretty much the same in Gongju too.

Shall we head inside?

Hello, sir.

You're Auditor Noh of Daehan Bank? - Yes, I am.

I'm the General Affairs Department General Manager, Na Dae Oh.

Nice to meet you.

We share the same name, don't we? - Sorry?

Oh, no. I'm Na Dae Oh and you are Noh Dae Ho, sir.

Dae Oh and Dae Ho.

I see.

I shouldn't have been such a know-it-all.

We already share something special. I look forward to working with you.

We're looking forward to it too.

Please place your belongings here to get through security.

They have such tight security!

They take it even seriously than the banks.

We're keeping a tight security,

due to all the head offices being based here.

I hope you understand.

Your temporary office...

will be on the fifth floor.

The inspectors from Daehan Bank are here, sir.

Do you realize what we're going through,

because to your immature behavior?

Everything will be all right, sir. - "All right"?

I already told you before.

Don't you know how much the market capitalization has dropped?

Isn't that how the stock market...

always works? - Shut it!

Never mind the stock market,

what are you going to do if another problem comes up?

Do you think you'd be able to handle it?

What "another problem"?

Are you talking about Haesan Chemical?

Why would I have to handle that?

Shouldn't you and your oldest son figure it out for yourselves...

as the owners, Father?

What did you just say?

How dare you speak to me like that!

Father!

Did you think I wouldn't notice...

you favoring him over me?

You're telling me to learn business management from him?

Have you already forgotten how many companies...

he's closed down?

On the other hand,

I was able to expand Haesan Construction this much,

when it had always been neglected.

What? If it weren't for the group's support,

you wouldn't even be here.

If this doesn't pass quietly,

you won't be able to maintain your position.

Father! - Call me "Sir" at work!

All right, sir.

Do as you'd like.

Haesan Construction isn't a company...

you can easily mess with.

Not any more, sir.

What did you just say?

Why, you!

Feel free to let me know if you ever need anything.

The president has instructed us...

to actively assist in anything you may need.

All right.

In order to save time, I'm sure you've been told that...

we've already requested for financial documents beforehand.

Yes, sir. They are almost done. I'll bring them in soon.

Please do hurry, Mr. Na. - Yes, sir.

One other thing...

I heard you also requested documents...

from our subsidiaries,

but they are demanding for...

the reason.

Oh, yes.

When the group's asset exceeds five billion dollars,

cross payment guarantee is forbidden.

However, Haesan has stood surety for its subsidiaries,

even when they are exceeding 20 billion dollars.

In this case, if something happens to Haesan,

it will cause a huge impact on the subsidiaries as well.

However, it will be pointless to go through an inspection...

without any of the financial data.

I see. All right, sir.

I will try to get them as soon as possible.

Thank you.

I'll get going, then.

Did you hear that? Please get the documents ready.

He seems to be a nice person. - Is he...

Data from the subsidiaries?

Data, my foot.

We're working on holding off...

the subsidiaries' data, sir.

What are you talking about?

Give the inspectors all the data...

they request for.

Don't give them any reason to find fault with us.

We won't be able to get out of it if they bring in the creditors.

We have to stop them at this point.

I apologize, sir.

We will do so, immediately.

If anything significant comes up, let me know right away.

Yes, sir.

We've got someone to keep an eye on them.

You said Noh Dae Ho, who was sent by Kang Sam Do,

isn't on good terms with the administration.

Are you sure of it?

As far as we know, that is correct, sir.

Why would he send someone he doesn't trust?

This must be a trap of his to tame Haesan...

What?

Are you saying that this is all a fib?

I apologize, sir.

If...

he has any intentions of...

trying to pull our group apart,

then that Auditor...

must be like a dummy.

Monitor the cash flow...

of the Financial Department at all times...

and let me know immediately if anything odd comes up.

Are you talking about only Daehan Bank, sir?

Check all financial institutes we do transactions with.

Yes, sir.

What are you up to, Kang Sam Do?

China?

Are you sure, sir?

Yes. Go on and proceed...

where it's quiet.

But it hasn't even been a few hours since Auditor Noh left.

In order to make the best judgements...

there's nothing we can do, but to prepare beforehand.

I was hoping Auditor Noh would just leave.

What about when you said you thought of him as the next president?

I'd say anything to bring Haesan...

back to order.

Did you really...

believe...

what I'd said?

No, sir.

I just thought...

it was a bit unconventional.

Unconventional, it was.

I really don't think Auditor Noh has what it takes...
