Secretary Kim!

Did Yoon-gyeom call?

Still no call?

It's five in the morning right now.

He's sleeping somewhere else.

He didn't come home all night?

What the hell is this?

Come on, say something. Gosh, this is frustrating!

I'm sure something urgent came up.

He'll probably explain everything once he comes back.

You think I'm wrong?

Then why is his phone turned off?

And why did he leave his car here?

I want to see Secretary Cha.

Love is a feeling you can't hide.

You don't plan it out at all,

and it makes your head spin.

It paralyzes any sense of logic with an incredible destructiveness.

The ecstasy caused by love

can numb your senses to an extent

where you won't even feel the pain of death.

It's incredibly dangerous.

Mr. Kang.

I didn't want to wake you up, but you should go back home.

Did I really sleep all night?

It's been so long.

I usually can't sleep for very long.

It's not like I asked you to bring me the moon.

It's really not that difficult.

How on earth can you not know where he went?

I'm sorry.

You think that solves anything?

Answer me.

Keep this with you. It's just for the two of us.

Can I call you too?

Yes. I'll always be waiting.

It's too extravagant.

I don't know if I can wear this.

No jewel is beautiful enough...

to be compared to you.

Chairman Kang is coming.

Hide.

What do you think you're doing? Have you kept them up all night?

What else was I supposed to do?

You didn't come home.

You can all go home.

-Honey. -Go home!

How many times have I told you?

Our employees are not slaves.

Yet you're always harassing them.

When will you stop?

Who cares about them?

What were you doing with your phone off?

Where were you?

On my birthday too.

Tell me everything

before I do something crazy.

I was thinking of an explanation on my way back.

But now that I'm here, I don't even want to say it anymore.

You make me sick.

What are you saying?

Are you on drugs?

Are you out of your mind?

I'm amazed that I've held it in for so long,

when I despise you this much.

How are you planning on apologizing for that?

I can't just let this go.

You spent the night out on my birthday,

and you're talking to me like I'm trash.

I'm not going to put up with this.

As if you put up with anything in your life.

Secretary Cha.

I saw your car parked outside. Come out here!

I called him because I was worried about you.

Am I not allowed to ask your secretary about you

when you weren't coming home?

So you put the tracking device in my car because you were worried?

What tracking device? I don't know what you're talking about.

Secretary Cha.

Who told you to install the tracker in my car?

There's only one person here who can give an order like that.

Please forgive me, sir.

Get out.

Is that really so important right now?

I did it because I love you.

Then what else is important?

Your birthday?

Of course my birthday is important.

But also are my feelings...

and the things that I want.

You should prioritize me over everything else, no matter what.

You want me to act like one of your employees, don't you?

Are you changing the subject because you spent the night out?

Tell me where you were and what you were doing first.

I just...

needed a place to rest.

You could've rested here.

At our house!

You mean, your house?

I'm not done talking yet.

Where are you going?

Why are you coming to the guest bedroom?

I don't want to sleep in the same bed as you.

Let's use separate rooms.

No, we can't.

I'll never allow that.

I'm so sick of you. Stop this.

Why are you acting like this? I'm the one who should be angry.

Honey.

Now, Ms. Jang.

I installed a hacking app on Mr. Kang's phone.

There we go.

Mom.

How was the wedding?

The bride was so beautiful.

You must be tired after the drive. Did you eat breakfast?

I ate at the rest stop.

Hey, honey.

Babe.

There was a package for you at the door.

From Lee Tae-joon.

Who's GEDIKS?

What?

What is it?

Let's open it together.

No.

What's wrong, Dad?

Jin-wook.

Sorry, honey. I'm sorry, Ms. Jang.

I think it was misdelivered.

I need to go make a call, honey.

Mr. Han.

These are the prosecutors who want to be a part of the Zeus Project.

Take a look.

Chief Prosecutor Kwon?

No, he was almost indicted on a lobbying charge.

How about him, sir?

I like him.

He hasn't made blunders and won't cause any issues.

Next, we have Special Prosecutor Park.

Didn't he pocket a lot of money last time?

He'll get too greedy if we recruit him again.

...A LOT OF MONEY LAST TIME? HE'LL GET TOO GREEDY IF WE...

The paperwork is all ready.

Thank you.

I know the password too.

What?

Mr. Kang spent the night somewhere else?

And it was on So-ra's birthday too?

That's hilarious.

So that's why she hasn't shown up today.

She's too embarrassed.

First we ghosted her, and then her husband spent the night out.

She must be going crazy right now.

This is too good.

Yes, Ms. Han.

You must be feeling unwell.

I'll take Da-bi to your place.

So-ra.

Oh no. Da-bi.

So-ra.

What took you so long?

Da-bi had a golf correction class.

What's going on, So-ra?

Yoon-gyeom wants to use separate bedrooms.

And I'm not letting that happen.

Mom.

Call your dad and tell him to come home.

Now!

I'll do it.

I'll tell Mr. Kang.

It's okay, Da-bi.

Let's get out of here.

I couldn't disobey Mrs. Han.

I'm sorry, sir.

You've done so much for me.

LETTER OF RESIGNATION

I'm going back to my hometown.

If...

I give you one last chance,

will you work for me completely and without question?

SO-RA

KIM SUN-BIN

I missed you.

Every day feels like a year now.

Mr. Kang, this is Kim Sun-bin.

You really need to come home.

What on earth happened?

Are you hurt?

Mr. Kang is here.

-Da-bi, your dad is here. -Da-bi.

Are you okay?

Dad.

Honey.

What the heck!

You don't plan it out at all,

and it makes your head spin.

It paralyzes any sense of logic with an incredible destructiveness.
