Undercover Miss Hong (언더커버 미쓰홍)

UNDERCOVER MISS HONG

Hello.

I am Hong Jang-mi.

HONG JANG-MI

Take a seat, President Shin.

You too.

Sit.

You belong to the Risk Management Division.

What were you doing

in the Trading Division on the day of the incident?

I was assisting with the lunch deliveries in Trading.

It's difficult for traders to leave their desks

before the market closes.

Yet there was only one female employee in charge of delivering all their lunches.

Do you admit your wrongdoing?

No.

Did you intentionally cause

the order error incident?

Me?

Did your careless behavior trigger

a domino-like chain of disruption?

- Dominos? - Ms. Hong! You...

Just a moment.

Mr. So.

What happened to the investors who bought Hanye Electronics stock at that time?

The Korea Exchange mediated,

and we amicably recovered the funds from the other investment firms.

However, the Texas-based US firm, Onemillion Investments

still remains unreachable.

What's the amount?

At the market price that day,

it came to about three billion won.

TO THE WORLD! TO THE FUTURE! HANMIN INVESTMENT & SECURITIES

Beyond the Han River, to the World! To the Future! Hanmin!

That three billion was entrusted to us by our investors.

We must recover the funds first.

I believe those funds

must be retrieved, no matter what.

Ms. Hong,

are you expressing an intent to resolve this matter by any means?

Who? Me?

Mr. So, what do you say?

Both Hanmin and the Korea Exchange fell short of delivering on this.

I'm not sure how Ms. Hong will be able to accomplish such a feat.

She's clearly determined.

Secure a signed agreement for order cancellation

from Onemillion.

You want me to do that?

- Hey, can you hear anything? -

Good morning.

Hello, sir.

Good morning.

Hello, sir.

Hello.

Ms. Hong, how did it go?

We heard Big Al's father shout earlier.

Let's talk back at the office. Let's go.

Don't tell me you were out here waiting for me this whole time.

We weren't.

They just kept trying to make it seem like the order error was solely on me.

That's messed up.

How wronged you must feel.

Totally.

I suggested they should be focused on retrieving the lost money first.

- Money? - What money?

The three billion that got away?

Ms. Hong.

You made quite an impressive empty promise back there.

You're hilarious.

"Hilarious"?

The responsible party flees,

and I'm about to be fired for cleaning up their mess.

Is that hilarious?

Look at you talking back with all that attitude.

Is that how you were raised?

Yes. My mom and dad taught me that.

You're the dad of two daughters, aren't you?

Do they know that you torment someone else's daughter at work?

Hey, family's off limits!

- So petty! - Come on now!

Mr. Cha, that's enough.

Mind your manners.

- But she... - Manners!

- Manners. -

Thank you for calling. You've reached Risk Management.

Yes, sir.

Just a moment.

It's the president.

He's probably calling about your termination.

I'm only being this polite because I still work here.

Stop fighting.

Put him on speakerphone.

Hello, sir.

Has Ms. Hong updated you?

On what exactly?

I'm to find Onemillion Investments

and secure the order cancellation agreement.

Why?

Why would she?

Ms. Hong volunteered.

She must be insane.

And what if

she fails to secure it?

Then she will be terminated.

No, you see, what happened was…

- Forget it. - Please.

- I hope you do. - Just forget it.

And this is the last time you answer my call on speaker.

Did you call for me, sir?

You must know Ms. Hong. You live together.

"Seoul City Dormitory for Single Female Workers, Room 301."

She's your roommate.

Yes, that's right.

It's not just the two of us. There are four of us living together.

I wouldn't say we're friends.

We're not close at all.

I've been informed

that she scored the highest on the written recruitment exam.

I heard top-performing students are normally hired early

in commercial high schools.

Yes, that is normally the case.

However, it appears that Ms. Hong took a gap period

after graduation.

Oh. Um…

I'm not sure if I should be telling you this.

Please speak candidly.

If I were to share a few observations…

She's a long way from being mild-mannered, compliant,

or respectful to her seniors.

She steers clear of such qualities.

She probably failed every other interview.

Also, she lacks interpersonal skills.

She's quite stubborn,

and her fingers are a tad bit on the sticky side.

I see.

You may leave.

Yes, sir.

- -

Why do things keep blowing up?

Why? I need to find Yehppee!

Trying to fire a minion for damage control only makes them more suspicious.

The order-entry error?

It has to be connected to the slush fund.

I'll expose the truth.

I refuse to leave until I do.

I refuse!

SLEEPING WITH THE ENEMY

Was it really that difficult

to quietly set aside just three billion

while the prosecution and the FSS had their guard down?

Did I ask too much of you?

What a ruckus you've caused.

I'm sorry, sir.

I met with the CEO of Onemillion.

We agreed to delay cashing out until things quiet down.

Since I started this,

I will see it through.

27

It's a simple order.

You'll be compensated handsomely for your services.

I'm sure Myeong-hwi's passing was just as upsetting for you

as it was for me.

But still, it's better to honor him with success,

not regret.

Do you plan on disappointing me?

No, sir. Please give me another chance.

That's enough.

Are you drinking booze?

Have some class. Show some dignity as the future chairman.

Watch how I drink it.

President Shin is so annoying.

He'll fire away if we can't catch the CEO of Onemillion.

What? Fire you?

Dad, have some class.

Not me.

Ms. Hong.

Hey, you make sure you stay out of this one.

Did you hear about the rumors too?

There are rumors?

There's a rumor going around

about how there was another suspicious transaction in Trading
