The way you look now

you'll never repay that debt

I'll get another loan

if I have to,

give me some time.

Gangsters shouldn't wash clothes.

If you don't clear out

by next week,

I'll burn everything here!

Just wait and see.

Councilor Suh's one thing

but Jang'll not let this slide.

Don't drop your guard.

Yes, boss.

Yong-gi, how's the hotel?

Yes, I'm doing my best, sir.

You run businesses

in Moogyo area, too.

Boss, take care of Kyung-pyo too.

Yong-gi's doing all the hard work.

Kyung-pyo, quit heroin first.

Yes, sir.

Let's go, honey.

Sure

I got this tonight.

Ma'am, this way.

Yong-gi.

Let me manage the casino

and restaurant here.

Let's go half-half.

Cool?

Not at all.

What?

Didn't you hear the man?

You backstabbing bastard!

I took you in, and raised you

and now you're all grown up?

Well now.

Don't make a scene.

People here will see you

for who you are.

Son of a b*tch!

Couldn't we...

go live down in the south?

Anything will be better than now.

People are coming to Seoul

because there's nothing else.

So what then?

Just be patient.

Evening, boss.

What's going on?

Not castrating the gigolo

brought us good fortune.

Hey man!

This place is pumping tonight!

For a swindler

he's down to earth.

Evening, sir!

These are the dancers I manage

how do you like them?

Good work.

Least I can do for

leaving my livelihood intact.

F***ing douche.

Have you told the madame?

Should I give her a visit?

She's here now

I apologize for before.

He told me about your situation.

How much do you need?

If you could swing $50,000

I'll pay it back in 4 months.

It's not pocket change.

Come on, sis help him out.

Look at that earnest face of his.

It's a big favor.

All right.

But I want something in return

I'm looking into lands in Gangnam

and I need a play date.

What do you mean?

You know how naive farmers are.

With a little persuasion

it'll be an easy picking.

You want to cheat them?

$5 million from Daehyun Corp

$3 million from Geuma,

$2 million from Kyungsin Daily.

We're far too short.

We can't win

the general election like this.

Everyone's saving up

due to recession.

Should I crack down on them?

Bastards...

They'll come to

when the commies run wild.

How can a company exist

without a country?

We must regain power

before commies take over

I'll pressure them more.

Buy up Gangnam lands.

Land?

It's all for the good

of our nation.

We'll flip lands and fill up

our war chest.

Will that be profitable enough

for the campaign?

What if we move the capital

to Gangnam?

Sir?

Seoul's overpopulated

it needs to expand.

That's enough of a reason.

Buy 3 million square meter for now.

Afterwards, we'll officially
