(Episode 7)
Actually,
we all grabbed some beer together,
but Ms. Shin suddenly disappeared,
and I can't reach her either.
Yeon–hwa.
What are you doing here? I couldn't even reach you.
I'm not in the mood to talk.
Yeon–hwa.
I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry.
Why are you...
...sorry?
I couldn't stop him.
I couldn't either.
I'm just angry at myself for not stopping that.
So there is no need...
...for you to be sorry.
I know.
But it still feels like my mistake.
I'm sorry.
Do you feel better now?
I cry a lot...
...in front of you.
You do.
Still, thank you.
For your concern.
Why are you smiling?
It's nothing.
Let's hurry.
Not yet.
Something still feels wrong.
It's not 100 percent.
There's definitely one more thing...
...that I don't remember.
Excuse me.
Mr. Ahn.
Ya–chae's on her way to get you.
I feel cold.
Can you get up?
Let's wait indoors.
Can't you...
...just stay with me?
What?
I feel cold.
Mr. Ahn. If you feel cold––
No, just stay with me, Mom.
I'm not your mom.
Don't go, Mom.
You raised your son well.
I'm not his mom.
Darn it.
Shoot.
–Thanks. –Thank you.
Keep that level.
It's quite heavy. You're strong.
Bring that right inside.
Go in and turn left.
–Hello. –You made it.
Where are the others?
They're on their way.
The furniture's here early.
This is the first batch.
There'll be two or three more loads.
Mister, mister, that has to come in last.
Wow. I didn't think I'd live
the country life I wanted like this.
It's much nicer than I expected.
Let's unpack first.
We have a lot to do.
Okay.
What's this?
Does the Management Team work up there?
Does he want to keep watch on us or what?
What's that random ping–pong table doing there?
I got it for the staff's indoor sports activities.
You can play whenever you want.
While the Management Team's here working,
and you're seated right here,
we can play whenever?
Whenever.
Are you setting all this up...
...just to mess with us?
Don't you think I tried hard to go to such lengths?
Well, yes.
You did very well.
Wait. What's all this?
What's that?
He's going to monitor us?
That's the CEO's...
...and Management Support Team's office.
It's also the staff welfare facility.
That's it?
Can't they do something about that wall?
The staircase is so bare too.
It's like working in a warehouse.
It looked fine on the outside.
I had no choice due to budget restraints.
Please understand.
Mr. Ahn.
Even so.
Consider our image as a game company.
It's the contents that count.
We must forgo appearances.
Mr. Ahn. I'm head of the Design Team.
How can you tell me to...
...forgo appearances when that's what I create?
Just look at your monitor when you work.
Things that are out of sight...
...tend to be out of mind.
I can't stand this.
Buy me just 10 pots of paint.
We'll do the rest.
As head of the Design Team,
I can't accept having to work in...
...a building with no sense of aesthetics.
In that time, why not work––
It won't interrupt our work.
We'll paint in our free time.
Don't you worry.
Very well.
I'll buy five pots of paint.
Sure. Do that.
I'll buy the rest.
I'm really sorry.
I meant to watch your broadcast––
Forget it, jerk.
Why should I even hang out with you?
Did you have zero viewers?
Not even one?
A few came in by mistake.
One or two.
They left after about 10 seconds.
You should've stopped them from leaving.
Hey. Crazy One.
"Crazy One"? Watch it.
You have it.
I said I'd kill you if we meet again.
How will you kill me?
Gosh, the stress.
Where are you going?
How will you kill me?
Tell me first.
Don't you follow me.
"Don't you follow me."
Oh.
Hey. What are you doing?
Give me that.
Do you not like lemon–lime drinks?
It was a gift of reconciliation.
Okay, fine.
I'll help you out.
If you do a show with me,
you'll get at least 500 subscribers.
Crazy One.
Is this fun?
Life?
Shall we sit and have a serious chat?
Hey. Get on.
I don't know what you ate to act like this,
but stop bothering me and get lost.
My gosh.
Hey. I don't smell.
My ex said my farts smelled like perfume.
–Gosh. –Hey, you.
Do you enjoy how I follow you around?
Do you like the attention?
I know how that is.
Attention seekers recognize each other.
Do you want me to keep following you around?
Fine.
You're the Crazy One.
Who could talk you out of anything?
You don't know where you're going.
You're just circling the field.
Aren't you begging me to follow you?
When I have a lot on my mind,
I just like to walk aimlessly.
Why do you have a lot on your mind?
Because I took your money?
My gosh.
I'll give you the three million won.
Give me your account details.
I won't fall for it again.
Don't you mess with me.
Hey, you caught on quick.
Just a little more work...
...and I can get six million won.
Hey!
I will kill you.
I'm not kidding.
Sure thing.
Try a little harder.
Six million to settle with. Let's do it!
You really have a death wish.
Hey.
This is how you make money.
You said you want to make money.
Get noticed like I do.
Whether you kill me or not,
that doesn't matter to me.
I just want you to look at me.
Then I succeeded.
Do you get it?
So what am I supposed to do?
Teach me properly!
Hey!
Hey, Crazy One!
Stop.
Darn you.
Come back here!
The Crazy One and Insane One together.
That's a killer combination.
Yes.
That's definitely a watchtower.
Right?
I keep getting this shiver down the back of my neck.
The budget estimation is...
It's done.
For the paint and labor costs.
It's all here.
Then the finishing of the interior walls.
You left that out on purpose?
To spare chump change?
–Execute the budget as usual. –What?
Spending money on...
...an unskilled company when I have top–level manpower?
That's also a waste.
What do you mean?
Pay for all 10 pots of paint...
...and pay out the labor costs to the Design Team.
Oh.
With the exact same budget,
you'll put the top–level workers to work...
...and look good yourself.
I don't want to look good.
It's a game in which we all win.
Not us all. It's just you.
Mr. Ahn.
Where's the large conference room?
We have an upcoming shareholder meeting.
Would the shareholders come this far?
They wouldn't bother.
Even so, just in case,
shouldn't we set things up?
The large...
...conference room.
It's over there.
That ping–pong table?
How is that the large conference room?
Oh.
Mr. Song. That is the large conference room.
How so?
The ping–pong table is the large table.
The large table in the large conference room?
My gosh. That's crazy.
No outside shareholder would come here for a meeting.
Do it here.
I just love this location.
For once, we can get things done quick and easy.
Let's see...
What's this?
Why is this here?
(Gamealpha)
This seems very malicious.
What's the matter?
Look at this.
Someone posted about Joybuster...
...on a gaming community web page.
(Gamealpha)
Are they all titled "failed game ideas"?
I think they did this deliberately...
...so we can't use any part of it.
Can these be traced?
They used one–time IDs and overseas IP addresses.
I'd say it's hard.
There are no signs of hacking.
I'd say this was done by an insider who left the company.
Details they stole before leaving the company?
Do you suspect anyone?
Half of the staff quit.
We can't suspect them all.
Find a way to strengthen...
...your team's security first.
Okay.
Darn it.
–Bye. –Good job.
–Goodbye. –Mr. Choi, can you drop me off?
–No. –Please.
Okay then.
–New guy. –Yes?
A chicken a day?
I think I need to take today off.
I don't feel well.
Come on now.
You can't let yourself down.
I really don't feel well.
Sorry, sir. Goodbye.
Hey. Hey.
Hey, new guy!
Forget it then.
(Send)
(Maxim Mocha Gold Simple Latte)
Oh, thank you.
But I don't drink anything sweet.
Neither do I.
What was that about?
Hey, it's not sweet at all.
It's nice.
(Eiffel Tower)
What's that?
Mom! Save me!
What's the matter?
I saw a mouse!
–A mouse! –A mouse?
Do something.
How can I catch it?
I thought you were capable of everything.
Epidemic hemorrhagic fever, salmonella,
leptospirosis, the black plague, etc.
Rats caused all those diseases.
I can't catch it.
Then what?
I'll call a pest controller early tomorrow.
Let's leave for now.
It's right there!
Aren't you going home?
I will.
You go ahead.
I'll leave in a bit.
You're easily scared.
You don't seem like it.
Whichever way you look, you won't think highly of me.
I know that.
You got that right.
Just out of curiosity,
when we had drinks together last time,
did I do anything else inappropriate
that I don't remember?
We all do things when we're drunk.
That means I did do something.
I mean I won't hold it against you,
so you don't have to worry.
On the wall of a bar somewhere abroad...
...is a sign that says the following.
"Alcohol..."
"...doesn't make one bad."
"It only exposes the bad people."
Are you afraid you were a bad person?
I'm concerned.
I would've acted against my intentions,
and if that's what I'm truly like,
then there's a problem.
You're really timid.
A triple A.
How did someone so timid...
...decide to sell "Pig War"?
I don't get it.
How do you know that...
...I sold "Pig War"?
How do I know?
You don't remember?
Did I tell you?
Are you still not sober?
That's chilling.
I'm completely sober and lucid.
When did we discuss "Pig War"?
That's what I'm asking.
What do you mean when?
That night, I went to your place and we talked outside.
What's wrong with you?
Oh.
That talk.
I thought we were talking about me sucking your thumb.
Wait. Hang on a moment.
Then that time...
You didn't apologize because of...
..."Pig War"?
I have no reason to apologize about "Pig War."
I made a managerial decision that the arbiter is entitled to.
The money from the sale will go into our new––
Hey!
Watch out! Behind you!
(Emergency Ward)
Yeon–hwa. What happened?
Mr. Park.
However furious you get,
you can't smash the CEO's head in.
I'm sorry.
My temper got out of hand.
Oh, dear...
It's late.
I'll stay with him.
You go home.
No, I'll stay with him.
Go home, both of you.
Hey.
You were awake?
I'll sleep for a while.
Go home.
I'm sorry for unwittingly causing you trouble.
You can say it was deliberate.
Say you vented your anger.
Now we're even.
Mr. Ahn.
Yeon–hwa.
He's talking without a problem.
He's fine.
Let's go home.
He's okay. Let's go, okay?
It'll be fine. Let's go.
You're the quickest to give feedback.
I was wondering...
...how things would be tomorrow morning.
What's happening tomorrow?
What? Didn't you lash out after reading his email?
Wasn't that it?
What email?
After we got off,
Mr. Ahn mass emailed the whole staff.
He explained the fact and reason...
...he sold "Pig War" in great detail.
Without a company,
there would be no "Pig War."
Rather than a much more dismal disappearance in the future,
we can survive...
...and remember our history.
In the future...
...where we've grown, we won't have to make such decisions.
I believe that...
...you all are capable of making a second,
and a third "Pig War."
(To all of you at Joybuster)
I didn't know.
But then,
that only represents how he feels.
It's one or the other.
You sympathize at least a little bit
with how the executive thinks,
or...
...you say, "That's what you think!"
And crack his head open.
That's not what happened.
Okay, okay.
Hey. Should I drop you off here?
Oh. Yes.
Thanks for the lift.
Get home safely.
I will.
Yeon–hwa.
He cherishes his companies...
...much more than it seems.
So don't think too badly of him.
I won't.
See you tomorrow.
Goodbye.
It's nice in the country, even if it's far away.
(Clean Zone)
We took the necessary measures.
You won't have any more issues.
–Thank you. –Bye then.
Mr. Ahn. Good morning.
New guy.
You're here early.
Mr. Ahn. What happened to your head?
Did you hurt yourself?
A mouse bit me.
A mouse?
Well done.
I feel so much better.
Drink this and take your time.
Pear helps cool you down.
That's not what...
Ms. Shin.
–I didn't do anything. –Ms. Shin.
This is insane.
Looks like you're a hero.
Will you stop it?
After reading Mr. Ahn's email,
I wished someone would smack him once on the head.
You got to it first,
and I respect you for that.
Right? Right?
Darn him. I feel great now.
I'm glad you feel great.
If he does it again,
I'll break his leg then.
Okay?
But to be honest,
I do empathize with him a bit.
He didn't have the luxury of having other options.
That's why I said I wished someone would smack him once.
Oh, I see.
Let's get back to work now.
–Okay. –Okay.
The shareholder meeting's on Monday.
Print out a performance report.
I already did. 10 copies.
Why did you print that many?
Not many will come.
What's that?
Is that our tent?
I don't know.
What is it?
What is this doing here?
It's not staked down.
Move it so I can move the car.
–Okay. –Sure.
–What's going on? –Yikes.
There's someone inside.
Get out.
Or knock first.
Who's in there?
My gosh.
I fell asleep.
Hey.
–Oh, hi. –Mr. Jo.
–Mr. Kang. –Hello.
–How are you? –I'm fine.
–Why... –My gosh.
Mr. Ahn, how are you doing?
What happened to your forehead? Were you hurt?
Why are you here?
Why else would I be?
I got an invitation.
I thought I'd be late if I tried to come on Monday,
so I got here early.
The scenery here is amazing.
It's perfect to camp out, isn't it?
Did you by any chance send abalone?
Did you enjoy them?
A friend of mine sells seafood in Noryangjin.
He gave me a good deal.
Weren't they fresh?
Pack up your tent.
This is a parking lot.
Oh. I apologize.
I had a hard time setting it up.
Will you help?
–I'll do it. –Sure.
I know a really great place there.
I go twice a week.
–I know the place. –Sinjeon, right?
–Yes. –Hey.
–Did I tell you? –Hey.
No.
Hey. Mr. Jo.
Yeon–hwa.
–Hello. –Wow.
It's so good to see you all.
Why are you so thin?
How have you been doing?
–I'm just slacking off. –I see.
New guy, go home.
Okay.
Do you want a drink?
–What? –Iced Americano.
–Iced caramel macchiato. –Mocha.
Iced vanilla latte.
Hey, look out.
Gosh, he's nasty.
It can't be helped.
I didn't think he'd do that.
Excuse me.
You want to know who he is?
Yes.
That was Jo Tae–koo.
Joybuster's previous CEO.
Previous CEO?
We fired him.
Then why is he here?
He handed over all his shares...
...but one. Just one share.
The problem is, even if you have one share,
that gives you the right to attend the shareholder meeting.
Oh.
It looks like...
...he came to ruin the meeting.
Darn it.
Just when I thought things were going smoothly.
–Here you go. –It's fine.
Do you have enough?
Let's drink.
–Soo–jung. –Yes?
Did you celebrate your kid's first birthday?
Yes, we did.
I was upset that you didn't invite me.
The party was the day after you were fired.
How could I invite you?
I'd have shown up even in tears.
That's true.
I'm sorry to intrude.
I feel bad for you all.
Don't you say that.
There's no CEO like you.
We feel bad that we got to stay.
Don't.
We were almost there.
I'm that powerless.
–Come on. –Don't.
Cheer up.
Have some meat. It's burning.
You all should eat up.
–Okay. –Okay.
I'll starve tomorrow.
What?
Do you want us to eat or not?
Eat just enough.
–Let's drink. –Cheers!
–Cheers!
Let's have some fun.
La la la la.
La la la la la.
(Joybuster)
I should dress appropriately.
(May 30, 2019, Annual Shareholder Meeting)
Here's our performance report.
Ah, ah. One, two, three. One, two, three.
One, two, three.
Okay.
(Annual Shareholder Meeting, Joybuster)
What kind of a company is so far away?
And what are these stairs?
Welcome, sir.
A majority shareholder can't miss a shareholder meeting.
–Welcome, Chairman. –Hi.
Oh, Mr. Jo.
It's good to see you.
Hello, sir.
Don't stand up. Sit back down.
I'd like to thank our shareholders...
...for making the long trip.
–We'll begin the–– –Just a moment.
More shareholders are on their way.
They'll be here soon.
Let's wait for them.
Oh, okay then.
Then we'll wait for a while until––
Rules are rules.
Start on time.
Okay, then...
...according to the meeting's rules,
we'll start the meeting with...
–...just the people–– –The shareholders are here.
(Joybuster)
My goodness.
Where are we?
What is this place?
–Come this way. –Let's go.
Who are all...
...those people?
Our company's shareholders.
The shareholders of a leading IT industry...
...are all old men?
–They're professional troublemakers.
–Professional troublemakers?
They own anything from 1 to 10 shares.
They spend the bare minimum to earn the right...
...to attend a shareholder meeting.
These fixers then disrupt the meeting...
...so it doesn't go as planned.
They planned this.
This could get noisy.
Why did you hide your company away?
Do you only serve water?
You treat your shareholders so poorly.
(Order of Events)
We shall now begin...
...Joybuster's 2019 annual shareholder meeting.
We shall pledge our allegiance.
Please stand and face the flag up front.
(2019 Joybuster)
Thank you.
We'll skip the national anthem due to time restraints.
I object.
We have lots of time.
Let's sing the national anthem.
As a worker of the game industry that plays...
...an important part in national profitability,
we must strengthen our resolve in front of our flag.
I agree.
That's right.
A Korean national can't skip the national anthem.
We do so much for the country's business environment.
Sing all four verses.
What kind of company...
...messes up a meeting from the get–go?
Okay, okay.
Let's sing.
Follow the rule book.
Okay.
Then we shall sing the national...
...anthem.
The mugunghwa...
...blooms all across the nation
Our country is bright and beautiful
The Korean people...
...unite for Korea
Protect us all
At last.
Here's the report on the quorum.
According to the articles of association,
we have a matter for special resolution today.
Out of the 11,256,210 shares issued,
owners of 5,610,007 shares, a majority, are present.
I announce we have enough present.
Please refer to the balance sheet we printed out for you.
We shall continue with our business plan report.
(Order of Events)
(2019 Joybuster Annual Shareholder Meeting)
For the future of Joybuster,
you shareholders made a very long trip to come here.
For that, I thank you.
To improve the sales structure,
we canceled the contract with our previous publisher.
Joybuster plans to set up an independent service platform.
This is an important issue,
and one that cannot be delayed.
I have a question.
To provide a service without a publisher,
you need a huge amount of funds.
How will you foot the bill?
Yes. Make it clear.
How will you fund it?
We want details.
How will you get the money?
This is fraud.
Don't you dare say you have no money.
Sirs?
To keep things going smoothly,
I'd be grateful if you'd keep the fuss to a minimum.
How can we not shout?
Huh?
Who are you?
Who are you to shut us up?
Yes. Who owns the company?
Don't we?
I will tell you.
With profits made from selling the previous office...
...and the sale of the IP for "Pig War,"
(IP: Intellectual Property)
–we can finance it. –Wait. Stop.
Did you just say you'll sell the IP for "Pig War"?
It's already been sold.
We canceled the publisher's contract
in return for giving them the IP.
Now we have enough funds...
...to develop a new game and publish it independently.
That was how...
...we obtained both funding and independence.
Don't lie.
If you sell that IP,
you have no game to live off of.
Once you're out of funds,
how will you boost sales?
We're developing a new game.
You don't have the license for "Pig War."
Will you buy back the license...
...and make season two?
Is that your plan?
Season two of "Pig War" that was under development...
...was also scrapped.
We're currently working on a game with a new IP.
What?
Doesn't this look familiar?
Doesn't it?
You sold what you had to fill your pockets,
then pretend to develop something to obtain more funds.
Your plan is to make off with all the money.
That will never happen.
We are working on a new project.
When sold overseas, it will bring in huge sales.
I'm sure of it.
You gave up a stable line of profit...
...to make a risky gamble.
What is this new project you speak of?
I can't tell you.
It's part of our business strategy...
...and therefore a secret.
A secret?
You don't have to keep it from the shareholders.
Not long ago, one of our project proposals was leaked.
Since then, we decided that only
the Planning and Development Team...
...is to exchange information.
I should believe that?
Don't you just have no plan?
I'm sorry, but...
...all I can tell you now...
...is that we're working on a new project.
Let's be honest, Mr. Ahn!
You took over less than a month ago,
and you're already working on a game–changing project?
Do you think that makes sense?
We are working on it.
What is it you're working on?
You have to tell us.
I've never seen Mr. Jo so angry.
It's understandable.
We sold "Pig War," his baby,
and want to adopt another one.
He can yell all he wants,
but it'll pass because he has no voting rights.
I feel bad for him.
No.
Mr. Jo knows he can't stop anything.
That's not the reason...
...he's being so angry.
Then what is?
Shareholder meetings have minute books.
Everything said at the meeting...
...must be recorded and made public.
He wants to make this issue known.
Make it known?
And then what?
If you have no countermeasure or plan for a new project,
I'll sue Mr. Ahn for malicious and reckless management,
fund leakage due to the sale of IP assets,
and dereliction of duty.
Darn it. He got us.
Hey. Delete that part.
–Delete it. –Don't delete a word.
Okay.
Take the laptop off him.
Let's see if he wrote down what you'll sue him for.
Isn't the stenographer an employee?
I'm the new guy.
You should've hired an expert stenographer.
Are you all in this together?
This darn company's trying to...
...dupe the shareholders from start to finish.
08A1...
...907725.
Take it out.
Oh... Okay.
To ensure transparency of records,
I hired an employee who is also a certified...
...Grade One stenographer.
He is recording every detail.
Don't worry.
(National Technical Qualification)
(Application Form)
(Korean stenographer)
Is that an official license?
We'll check later on.
There's no point.
How long do you think your lies will last?
You must know this too.
The stenographer will record everything I say as well.
Mr. Jo Tae–koo.
You were dismissed from Joybuster.
You want to ruin my credibility?
The reason for your dismissal.
Was it because you lied frequently?
I don't lie.
Where do we draw the line?
Do you not know?
Is it a lie if you don't stick to your word?
A company always announces its plans for the future.
None of it has come true yet.
You only stated your plans?
Is it different if I do it?
Ex–CEO Mr. Jo.
Did your company go bankrupt because
you stuck to your plans for the new year?
You can't drag me down with you.
I am trying to get you involved,
but not so we both go down.
I'm saying this because I believe...
...ex–CEO Mr. Jo didn't intend to lie.
Our plans...
...are choices made to keep us alive.
This is the truth.
You asked where we draw the line of lies.
It's easy.
If it's something that not even the staff believe,
it's a lie.
Do you...
...believe what Mr. Ahn...
...just said?
See?
Don't complain if I sue you.
I'll speak honestly...
...about the new project.
Okay then.
I caught you, so fess up.
I expected you'd react negatively...
...to scrapping the project, selling "Pig War,"
and canceling the publisher's contract.
I also thought you'd have doubts about our new project.
But...
...what's important to us now,
is having a foothold to bounce back with.
We must secure that foothold––
Don't waste your breath with fancy language.
Get to the conclusion.
I heard you like conclusions.
A new project.
Is there one or not?
As of this moment––
Don't drag it out and just say it.
You're so frustrating.
I'm Shin Yeon–hwa, Head of Planning.
Stay out of it.
Planning new projects is my duty.
May I speak in person?
Yes. You tell us, Yeon–hwa.
Can you step aside?
Yes. The person in charge will tell the truth.
Mr. Ahn.
If you have nothing to say, move.
Yes, move. Get out of the way.
Take the mic off him.
So, Yeon–hwa. Tell us.
Is there one or not?
There isn't.
I knew it.
There can't be.
To make money to work on a new project,
someone sold off "Pig War."
As a lowly employee, I had to just sit and watch,
but I've about had enough.
I'll expose the truth...
...for you all to hear.
Good for you.
Yes. Tell the truth and make us feel better.
There's nothing left here.
It's honestly...
...an empty shell of a company.
Which is why...
...I have the same thought when I come in each morning.
I bet it's torture.
It's so...
...exciting.
It's exciting?
You're so furious you want to burn the place down, right?
The fun of...
...filling in an empty canvas each day.
You know the feeling.
It's pretty good.
Like painting a warehouse wall.
Shall I tell you about our new project?
There isn't one.
Of course, it doesn't have a physical form.
But in my mind...
and the mind of my teammates,
we have a complete project.
Bring the proposal.
Mr. Ahn already said...
...it's a secret project.
The importance of security.
Don't you know that well, Mr. Jo?
Well...
What's wrong with you, Yeon–hwa?
Two years ago, when another company released a game...
...very similar to ours just before we did,
we incurred a huge loss.
We had to give up promised investments...
...and scrap the project.
Why?
Because to be honest,
their version was better than ours.
As a result, I took responsibility and stepped down.
–So Mr. Ahn too––
–I'm not talking about your mistake.
I'm saying we won't...
...make the same mistake again.
If you're trying to get away with saying it's a secret––
No. If you approve of our plan...
...and close the meeting now,
without having to worry about records,
I'll brief you in private about the new game.
What do you say?
You've...
...become one of them.
I am...
...one of them.
Yeon–hwa.
Joybuster...
...always was one.
Mr. Jo right here,
and the rest of you.
Aren't we all on the same side?
You can't do that.
Ms. Shin does not represent the company's views.
Other than the Planning Team, no one...
...can know our plans.
Mr. Ahn.
Someone leaked our previous plans a few days ago.
What makes you think we can trust that man?
What makes me think so?
I've known him longer than you.
For longer, at a close distance.
Mr. Jo...
...will never...
...make...
...a wrong decision.
Very well.
Mr. Jo.
Will you see...
...and hear what we have?
Mr. Jo.
We have our own businesses to run.
Yes, Mr. Jo.
Make up your mind.
Or turn this place upside down...
...so they learn a lesson.
I propose...
...we vote now.
Sir. Chairman. Sir.
–What? –It's voting time.
Yay.
–Yay. –Yay.
Yay.
The shareholders present voted unanimously.
The item on the agenda was passed.
That concludes...
...Joybuster's 2019 annual shareholder meeting.
It's a new kind of game that builds on...
...a strong alliance among the users.
We put in all the technical and design know–how...
...we learned from developing "Pig War."
It'll be our greatest weapon.
That's all.
That's not our style.
That's intentional.
We want the users to feel...
...that it's not Joybuster's usual style.
What is Joybuster's identity?
"To make the world fun."
The style may be different from our previous games,
but the team behind it hasn't changed.
In other words,
our identity hasn't changed.
Whose idea was this?
It was Joybuster's idea.
Why didn't you do this when I was CEO?
It's just amazing!
Nice! It's great!
It's awesome!
Push right ahead with this idea.
If any shareholder gets in your way,
I'll roll up both my sleeves,
visit every one of them,
and persuade them myself, okay?
This'll work!
It's great!
It's nice. Well done.
Mr. Jo.
Good job.
You're good at this.
I should've made you team manager sooner.
Sorry for how I acted earlier.
Were you upset I didn't take your side?
Why would I be?
I should apologize.
What's the real reason you came here?
I have nothing to do at home.
Did you dream of conquering us?
That's possible.
When you sold the company so cheap,
did you have this situation in mind?
I don't see that far into the future.
I believe Nexviper showed interest and offered a better deal.
I wanted to know the real reason you sold the company to us.
Because I was furious.
Things happened,
and we ended up being a subcontractor of sorts.
They rocked our company for not following instructions.
I didn't start this company to do that.
It was so...
...I could make the games that I, that we wanted.
I understand very well...
...how you feel.
Mr. Ahn.
I don't care what the position is.
Could I...
...stay at Joybuster?
You're banned from working in the game industry for three years.
It's in your contract.
I want to make games.
You're responsible for the company's failure.
Stay away from game development.
Instead,
I'll ask for a favor.
A favor?
You're a failed executive,
but you devoted your life to developing games.
I don't think that's a failure.
I can tell that much from the fact that...
...the staff still like and follow you.
Mr. Ahn.
If there's anything I lack,
as a senior who lived in the game development industry,
I'd like you to give advice...
...and criticism...
...without hesitation.
Please, sir.
Is that too much?
Yes.
When we met at the go club,
I didn't tell you why I hired you, did I?
You said you felt cool and just hired me.
I thought...
...you'd fight well in my place.
For Joybuster.
Just like today.
Mr. Jo.
Thanks to your hiring her, she fights me often too.
I don't fight you for no reason.
You even make up reasons.
See? How could I not get angry?
Consider it his way of showing interest.
Celebrities prefer hate comments to nothing at all.
You two have a chemistry.
Mr. Jo!
Was that too much too?
Yes.
–Take care, Mr. Jo. –Bye.
–Goodbye. –Bye.
Hey. What's happening?
What's the warning for?
You too, Soo–jung?
Yes. Mine's weird too.
Darn it. This is bad.
I typed everything in.
Stay calm. Don't touch anything.
(Warning!)
What's the matter?
It's bad, Mr. Ahn.
It's an emergency.
(Warning!)
(Special thanks to Ryu Seung–soo for his guest appearance)
(Level Up)
As of this moment, the elephant engine...
...is off limits.
Take a step back to take two steps forward.
Is there a single person you know who likes you?
If you have Joseph Lee,
can you finish the program in time?
I think it's doable.
Hello, sir.
What are you looking at?
That's Orion.
Where's the only place to release the bloopers?
Do me a favor...
...and ask me one in turn.
You said you'd do me a favor.
