Climax (클라이맥스)

I think we should shelve the recording.

That's what I was thinking.

We need to pull the plug on this project for now.

Pull all the broadcasts related to Park Jae Sang and Oh Gwang Jae.

And let's shelve the planned release of the recording.

Right. Now that the Chairman is involved,

the risk is too great to keep pushing forward.

I'll contact Park Jae Sang and tell him the project is on hold.

And come up with a Plan B.

Understood.

The person is unavailable. Please leave a message.

Darn, why won't he pick up?

Leech.

What on earth?

Hey.

I said I'm not doing it. Got it?

Darn it.

I'm done with the exposes.

I told you, it's all over.

You really don't have a copy of the recording?

How many times must I tell you? Park Jae Sang has it, not me.

It looks like he's right. It's not here.

I searched his IP and cloud storage, and there's nothing.

So I doubt there are any other copies left online.

What are you doing?

I said, what are you doing?

Is that gasoline? Darn it. Hey.

What do you think you're doing?

Darn...

Hey!

I will...

I'll convince Lee Yang Mi, okay? Let's just stop this.

Even if you guys decide to scrap the broadcast,

Park Jae Sang won't.

Seriously...

Where did you hide Park Jae Sang?

We'll just need about an hour, please.

Yes, of course.

Jae Sang.

I'm so sorry.

What can I do,

for you to forgive me?

Forgive you?

Honestly, I want you to be ruined the same way I was.

Betrayed in the same way,

and to suffer just as much.

I've been in agony this whole time too.

I only said those things because I thought I was dying.

I never imagined that something like that

would actually happen.

Please forgive me.

Listen, Jae Sang.

About the recording...

Can't you just let it go?

So this was about the recording?

My life has been completely shattered,

and you're that scared of your true colors being exposed?

Then you'll see what it's like

because that's what I want.

I see there's no getting through to you.

I'm done with this.

- What? - I'm done pretending for you.

So you want to see this through, is that it?

Fine. Bring it on.

- Hey, Chu Sang Ah. - And don't tell me

you actually thought we had a future together.

That we'd get married or something?

You were such a fool.

Just die.

Just die!

- Is that Chu Sang Ah? - It is! It's her!

Just die.

What's going on?

Is he going to kill her?

What's going on?

Shouldn't we call the police?

- He's insane. - Is he trying to kill her?

- My gosh. Someone has to stop him. - He's going to kill her.

Somebody call 911! Help!

I can't watch this. What on earth? My gosh.

Hey, Park Jae Sang!

Hey, let her go! I said, let go!

Stay back.

Did he pull out a knife?

- What was that? - Call the police.

Get out of my way!

- Get out of the way! - Oh, my!

Shouldn't somebody stop him?

Are you okay?

Stop filming!

Hey, stop filming!

Hey, just keep recording.

What is he doing?

Is he going to kill her?

- Is he trying to kill her? - My gosh.

- Shouldn't we call the police? - What's going on?

The person is unavailable. Please leave a message.

Leave a message after the beep. When finished, you may hang up.

So I hear you met with Choi Ji Ho.

Did you find anything else?

It seems like Choi Ji Ho doesn't have any copies left.

And it seems he's definitely given up on leaking the recording.

All we have to do is stop Park Jae Sang.

So where is that jerk?

We tracked him to a motel area. I'll text the location once we know.

I haven't been able to reach Sang Ah since yesterday.

Do you know anything?

I'll look into it.

Last night...

Sang Ah was with you, wasn't she?

Your job is to observe and report.

But what you did last night crossed the line.

Why are you acting so out of character?

You're the one who made me this way.

Don't tell me you eavesdropped on our conversation last night.

I told you to tail Park Jae Sang! Who told you to tail my wife?

Why are you being so paranoid?

Then again,

you must be terrified now that the wife you treasured so much

knows you let her think

- she was a killer. - I told you not to cross the line.

You've been using Chu Sang Ah from the very beginning.

Hey.

Just because you overheard us, don't you dare run your mouth.

My patience for taking care of you is running thin.

Isn't this the moment you need me most?

Should I kill him for you?

Park Jae Sang.

We're done here.

Don't you ever show your face around me and Sang Ah again.

Stupid jerk.

Have you made your decision, Chairman?

We've decided to fan the flames with the news.

Executive Director Kwon.

You're as sharp as ever.

Prosecutor Bang,

thank you.

For what?

Just thank you.

Thank you.

I wonder what card you played.

The old man folded the second Prosecutor Bang left.

According to the will, I would've taken over WR easily.

What a shame.

Looks like I don't need you anymore, Prosecutor Bang.

So,

you're saying the current will could put me at a disadvantage?

Based on a clause the Chairman added to the will,

if an heir damages the group's name by leaking company secrets,

the heir will be stripped of all their rights and shares.

You need to kill that news story fast.

That's why I plan on adding more fuel to your news fire.

What does that scum think he's doing?

Because that's

the only way I can protect my shares now.

Executive Director.

If you want to play it like this,

I have no choice but to see this through.

You're okay with Chairman Kwon's name

getting dragged through the mud, aren't you?

Until I was 20...

Considering my father beat me until I was 20,

I don't care for the group's honor. I'd expose him, even with lies.

So I'll help it all go up in flames.

Just watch me.

Darn.

Do you think the Joker I'm holding will only take down Chairman Kwon?

Joker?

The Oh Gwang Jae file.

It implicates media, politicians, and CEOs, one after another.

If you let that file get out, can you handle the fallout?

Once my wife makes her statement,

that will prove my innocence.

I'll have all the justification I need.

Now get me that nomination like you promised.

But

what's the point of you getting out of this alone, Prosecutor Bang?

If Chu Sang Ah goes down, so do you.

You two are joined at the hip, aren't you?

I think it's time to put a Doberman down.

My goodness.

Darn it!

Darn!

The Creation Party is considering revoking Bang Tae Seop's nomination.

Yes, we're discussing revoking Bang Tae Seop's nomination,

("Creation Party to Discuss Bang's Nomination")

And since moral character is a top priority for our nominations,

we will thoroughly investigate the truth and soon...

The prosecution will reopen its Oh Gwang Jae investigation.

The decision whether to investigate will be made within days,

and whether Park Jae Sang releases the recording will be the key.

We have breaking news. A video of Chu Sang Ah in Deogyang-dong

being assaulted by Park Jae Sang is spreading on social media.

The video shows Mr. Park strangling Ms. Chu,

and wielding a knife at Ms. Chu's manager.

The shocking assault was caught on camera.

The police said based on the footage,

they are pursuing Mr. Park, who fled the scene.

While there was great sympathy for Ms. Chu after the video came out,

the online reaction has been cold.
