Who's this?
It's Choi Kang!
Brother who was even rejected by a no-name little company
Though I don't know how you passed the written exam at our LK
there's something you need to know
Even if luck is with you
And you pass the interview
Luck won't be with you forever
There will be one day
when you'll regret losing a talent like me
Yah
Other then gold mattresses
Is there nothing else?
It's a big world out there
There are many things you can do
What do you know?
Till this day you still haven't a clue what to do
Hurry and go return it!
Everytime at the deciding moment
He would appear and expose himself entirely
This means war
Ellis is on the move again
How long are you planning to live like this?
Have I come to a place where I don't belong?
Why say such words?
Sit
Gong Ju Yeon?
No mistake
It's middle school's No. 1 place, Gong Ju Yeon
Middle school reciprocal countdown No. 1, Choi Kang?
Not quite reciprocal countdown No. 1
Sell lots of gold mattresses
The doors of luck are opening wide for you this year
In a short term if there comes a chance to use your body
Use it under any conditions
Yeh?
If you use your body well
You will meet your luck bringer
Episode 2
The president is here
Thank you for waiting, Lifesaver
It's nothing
Your name?
I'm Choi Kang
Choi Kang
A very manly name
Thank you very much
Our Choi Kang is a student?
No
Then are you an employee at a company?
I'm in the middle of getting ready to find a job
Isn't it a survival of the fittest world out there?
If you have the strength to compete
You will have the confidence to win a position
Isn't that how it is?
Yeh?
Truthfully, I was a bit frightened back there
In such a dangerous situation
To be able to fling yourself without a second thought is really not a simple thing
But if someone pushed you from behind
then wouldn't it be an entirely different matter?
Yeh?
Just Joking
Joking
For a total stranger
Mr. Choi Kang who didn't spare a thought to his own body
I would like to once again express my thanks
I have a meeting right now
It's getting late
As to the rest of the details
Secretary Kim Please take care of them as you see fit
Then...I'll be leaving
Make yourself comfortable
Have a seat
Seeing Mr. Choi Kang's selfless bravery and courage
It truly is an act of an outstanding citizen
The president would like to present you with a commendation
It is the president's intentions
Yeh?
Commendation?
Yes
If I receive the President's commendation...
will it be reported?
It is likely
Then I won't accept it
Why?
If I accept the commendation then with the commendation that I accepted
the reason for it will be reported too
Isn't that so?
It is very likely
What if the incident of the President going on his regular golfing trip and
almost ran over a citizen is reported?
There are those that like to gossip
A portion will debate and start rumors
blowing up the entire incident...
And ruin of the government's image...
will all begin from there
About that...
I'm really sorry
Yeh?
From all views
it seems the gold mattress cannot be used again
It was brought on a 12-month installment
Of course
Compensations will be made
If that's the case...
No matter what
I won't be accepting the commendation
'Invincible Parachute Agent' [Moojeokeui Nakhasan Yowon]
Mr. Choi Kang's intentions
I will faithfully convey to the President
For the ride
Thank you very much
Kangie, you...
Uhmma [NOTE: Uhmma= mother]
What is it with you now?
Is it Uhmuhnim? [NOTE: Uhmuhnim= Formal address to someone else's mother.]
That is...
Even though I'm not sure what your business is
You have a really impressive son
What?
Not really
Then...
I'll be leaving
Goodbye [NOTE: Goodbye said by the person leaving.]
You'll be leaving now?
Goodbye [NOTE: She is using the 'Annyeonghi kaseyo' when addressing someone who is leaving. Literally means 'leave well'.]
Goodbye
Who was that?
Blue House's Presidential Secretary [NOTE: Blue House= Presidential Palace in Seoul]
What?
Blue House's
President's personal secretary
Wait a moment
Almost forgot
This...
I think Uhmuhnim and Ahbuhnim will need it... [NOTE: Ahbuhnim= formal address to someone else's father.]
Can't get it clear no matter what you say
Saved a halmoni that almost got run over by the President
This should be a newsworthy event
Why not just say you saved the whole country?
Go film a movie
Film a movie
I'm hungry
Yah
Blue House's people have nothing better to do than
playing along with a rascal like you in broad daylight?
Let's not even mention the gold mattresses [NOTE: Gold mattresses= literally translated as 'jade' ([precious) mattresses.]
President and commendation?
Blue House?
At least think a bit if you're going to tell a lie
Really going faint
Why are you faint?
If anyone faints, it's going to me who had to take care of a rascal like you for a son
It's because I've got a heart that still has some good basic qualities that I've persisted to this day
If it was someone else's mother
They'll have fainted long ago
I'm about to faint with hunger
Don't be so harsh
Even if hyung is a failure, you shouldn't be like that
The LK interview already turned out like this and now this gold mattress incident
Hyung probably feels embarrassed about the different matters too [NOTE: Hyung- how younger males address older males; older brother.]
And
I heard if you're caught by that type of people
You'll never get away
Isn't that right?
You
What are you going to do if my words are true
Huh?
This isn't going to work
Should I call and ask, Abuji [Note: Abuji= father (formal)]
Right, do it quickly
Going to gamble?
Gamble what?
Gamble your salary
Hyung is unemployed
If I lose
I'll call you 'hyung' for life
Fine
You heard, right?
From now on, his salary is mine
Rascal
Look at his behavior
Rascal
Wait
I have proof
Call and see
Hurry
I'm dying from hunger
Yoboseyo [NOTE: Yoboseyo= phrase when answering the phone]
This is Over Bridge No. 39
Yes, I understand
What's that?
I was afraid it'd look like I was showing off
So I wasn't going to show it to you guys
What's this?
Can't you tell by looking?
This is proof that I really did go to the Blue Palace
Take-out is here
Why is it so late?
Sorry
Here
How much?
12, 000
Here you go
Thank you
Also
We are moving into the place beside the Laundromat
The name's changed too
General's Guests is now changed to "Blue Palace"
Godspeed takeout
Alright then, enjoy your meal
What are those?
You had an interview at LK, so why are you selling gold mattresses?
Really...what is this guy doing in broad daylight?
Did something happen?
Where did this money come from?
Outside riches received
Gold mattress has borne fruit
Though I did endure some discrimination at home
I used my body and managed to visit the Blue House
And got to see the President too
All that's left now is for a girl to deliver herself and all of Yellow Flower Fairy's words would have come true
Yellow Flower Fairy?
A girl
I told you to get lost
A lie?
What?
Can't be
What can't be?
Gong Ju Yeon
That's right, Gong Ju Yeon
Gong Ju Yeon is s my destined girl
That's it!
Our school's 1st place, Gong Ju Yeon
You scared me
That's right
The girl you use to like
It was her
Yah
Why didn't I think of her?
What?
No, no
Even if I was even more brain dead
I wouldn't have thought of it
It's because we met under such unexpected circumstances that I was so muddled
What are you talking about?
Life really is unpredictable
How did a girl like that become like this?
What?
She...
What about Gong Ju Yeon?
...is one of our bar's hostesses
What?
Yah
What kind of place do you think this is that you can just follow me in?
I have things I have to say
I can pass it on
Let me say it myself
Seriously
Annyeong haseyo, Manager [NOTE: A phrase of 'asking after'. Annyeong Haseyo is equivalent to 'hello']
We're opening soon
What are you doing in front the entrance?
Sorry
Hurry inside and prepare
Yeh
Hurry and leave, Rascal
There is someone named Gong Ju Yeon here, right?
If you are looking for Agashis, come have a seat inside then call for one
If you don't have the means then don't stand here wasting time
Tidy up this side as well
Crazy rascal
Yah
Come here
Yah
What exactly do you want to do?
Waiter
Give me the wine menu
Are you crazy?
Mr. Lee
Yeh?
Yeh, Manager
Give him the wine menu
Yeh, Manager
First time here?
Yes and so?
A bottle of beer
Go and fetch it
Yeh
Would you like me to call an Agashi for you? [NOTE: Agashi= Lady or Miss. In this case, a hostess.]
If that's the case
Then thanks
Please wait a moment
What are you doing running in here?
Are you crazy?
Do you want to see me get fired?
You're really something...
Miss Gong?
Yeh?
You said this is your first time doing this kind of work?
Yeh
Somebody called for you specifically
What?
Have a seat
Compared to meeting on the bus
Much prettier
Is that so?
Thank you
Thanks for what?
What are you doing coming here?
Is that really important?
But...
It's really been a long time for us
Hasn't it?
Yes
[PRONOUNCEMENT Expelled: Choi Kang]
Study hard
Want a drink?
Of course
Waiter
Another bottle of beer
Annyeong [NOTE: More informal version of Annyeong haseyo. Equivalent to say a 'hi' versus a 'hello']
Drink up
Why are you looking for me?
There seems to be some misunderstanding between us
What misunderstanding?
I'm...
not a gold mattress salesman
And so?
That's it
Why did you come all the way here to say that?
There's more
More?
With your abilities you can a job where you don't have to be dependent on other people
Why is someone as smart of you making a living in this kind of place?
You weren't this kind of girl back then
You're lecturing me?
I'm doing this because I feel sorry that this is a big waste
This isn't something you have to worry about
You should go
I'm really busy
You're that type of women?
What?
Blinded by brand names, want to earn easy money...
If you want to continue drinking, I'll go call another girl for you
Though I don't know middle school's No. 1, Gong Ju Yeon's
unspeakable reasons for working here
But now that I know...
I can't let you be like this
Not to worry about you
Not going to...
let me be like this?
First, let's get out of here
What?
Choi Kang
Don't be like this
Yah
Let go
It's not what you think
Yah Choi Kang
Sorry
Looks like you've been completely controlled
Don't worry
I will take care of everything
It's not like that
I...actually...
What are you doing?
Move it
You'll get hurt
Are you a crazy little bastard?
Yah, Gong Ju Yeon
Do you know me?
What gives you the right to interfere with my life?
Have we met?
Looking now
You're not the Gong Ju Yeon I know
Sorry
Don't even know each other
And I'm just budging into other people's lives
Tips
I think he is a very reasonable and understanding individual
Take last year in the United States
It was the same situation when there were too many rumors about the Vice President
And the party was forced by the masses to ask him to resign
Definitely an area where trouble is sparked
And that's why he refused the commendation
Yeh
Indeed a very rare young man
Must have received very good family teachings
Very likely
A person like that should really do something for his country
That is true
If there were more individuals like that
Wouldn't this be a steadier and more stable country?
I will take measures
[Blue House_Subordinate_Secret Intelligence Agency_Budget Table]
Yoboseyo
Bureau Chief
This is Kim from the Blue House
I would like to recommend one of our country's rare talents
Who are you?
Even if you're one of LK's people
It looks like a misunderstanding
Misunderstanding?
Who is it?
I've heard his voice from somewhere before
It's definitely a voice I've heard before
Who can it be?
I'm going crazy
Yoboseyo
(Can't remember a voice you've heard before)
(Did you think you could get away with that?)
I really...
No matter how I try
I still can't remember
It's the truth
It's really the truth
(If you still can't remember in 3 days time)
(your body will be floating along the Han Gang) [NOTE: Han Gang= The Han river in South Korean.]
Wait
Do you think I'm handsome?
Or do you think I'm ugly?
Do you think I belong with the dogs?
Or with the cows?
There will be one day
when you'll regret losing a talent like me
I remember
Mr. Uno
I remember
Mr. Uno
Uno
(Yes?)
How was it?
(Breakthrough)
Really?
What does he do?
(About that...it's very strange.)
What is?
(Heard that he was at a LK interview.)
What did you say?
Interview?
(He's not our competition's spy like we thought)
And so...
(Could it be that the Intelligence Agency's caught on to some tail and is trying to get close....)
Intelligence Agency?
(But, if that's the case it still doesn't make sense)
What doesn't?
Graduated from middle school with lowest grades
A university that's never been heard of
And grades that are unspeakable
Until now, rejected by 90% of the companies he has applied for
Though...
he recently passed the written examination at LK
He was rejected at the interviews
There are no government related or social workers in the family
That's not all
He's said to be an outstanding and rare youth of the country, isn't that right?
Perhaps...
He wouldn't be from overseas with a specialist background would he?
A few years back
Wasn't there a special case in the American department
where an important officer in the Korean army came from a Specialist team background?
That's true
Regardless
It seems the President's trust is different than the majority's
He's probably not the average person
But...
It seemed like the Secretary was trying to hide something
It is strange
It is a youth with an unknown background
But...
Looking at these biographical notes
It's even stranger
Could it be a false report?
Could be
Though giving us a false report
is highly unlikely
There's no need for something like that
Please watch the rest of the material
Choi Kang?
Who knows?
Looking at records he is indeed a graduate from our school
But I've never met him
Since I've been teaching here for a long time
I know most of the students here
But, Choi Kang...
Yah
Do you know someone named Choi Kang?
I don't know
Never really attended class?
Who are you guys?
Not long ago
He came back riding in a really nice car
Some really frightening people also came out
But they very politely asked after the family's son and mother
Over here
It's the first time I've seen such a nice car
But...
Who are you?
Asking one question after another?
Looking at the investigation at this point
He does not appear to be the average person
Appears and visits 1 to 2 times in a month
There is no one in the school who knows him
Also...
The high class vehicle that the resident ahjummoni saw [NOTE: Ahjumma = A term used to address an adult female individual of married age]
was identified to be a vehicle owned by the Blue House
And the most shocking thing of all
will now be shown on the screen
Tips
Why did he appear in this setting?
Though he is a fellow classmate of Gong Ju Yeon
this is their first meeting in 8 years
Is this a joke?
It's not a joke
Then is this a matter to be brought at a department meeting?
Right now, because of the international business spy called Ellis
What can be considered to be our country's most sophisticated technology of the future
may be leaking into the hands of those overseas
And now, just for one thing that the Blue House has entrust to us
For us, busy department heads
is it right to be having a meeting on such nonsense matters?
That is what I mean
When you see the next image
you will understand why we are all assembled here for this meeting
Recently
After we received a report on LK's underground transaction of advanced technology
This camera shot was probably captured during a recon mission on cases where there may be advanced technology information leakage
Even though, till now, of these 2
we still haven't received any reports of them making a transaction
But looking at this image
Regardless of how
There must be some kind of relationship
If so
Why did the Blue House...
Perhaps...
He is the undisclosed son of some power people in the country?
If not...
Then his identity is necessarily hidden even from us
A true spy
I will take care of the favor that the Blue House asked of us
No need for Bureau Chief to rack your brain about it
How come there's no sign of Team Leader Kang?
Even though these words are not really suitable
Maybe he's been away from work too long, he doesn't seem very well adjusted
That so?
There are still some objections from the Internal Affairs Department
Who?
Can't really say who specifically...
There are those that feel inferior and feel the need to talk behind people's back
If they have so much time on their hands
Tell them to take of themselves first
Connected to the Blue House?
Cute kid
You're mine
Please sit in the front
Looks like you've eaten

Come on, come on
Let's drink together
Bottoms up
Smooth
Yah yah
You're not picking them up?
What?
Not happy?
Why aren't you picking them up?
Over here, over here
Pick them all up
Yah, yah
Pick them all up
Yah
Why are still sitting?
Yeh?
Aren't you here to earn money?
Smiling?
Pick them up
I don't want to
Pick them up
No
Pick them up
Don't...
What happened?
What?
What 'ace'?
TEMPRO something, is it?
Ahjumma earn lots and lots of money yourself and use it if you can
I
Quit
Ahjumma
Give me another bottle of soju
Yes
Give me a bottle too
Yes
I heard you broke the table
And with you head too
Who are you?
Getting mad at something so miniscule
There's nothing you can do for your country and its people
Who are you?
[AGENT_Gong Ju Yeon] [Highest grades all through Junior to University]
[Anything that requires thinking is her specialty] [Entered the Agency at the top of her class_New Agent]
Alright
I'm letting go [NOTE: She is using phrases used in the game. The flower cards are called Hwatu. The most popular game is Go Stop.]
Uhmma
Are there no one in our family who's successful? [NOTE: Literally translated as 'no one that has walked well'.]
In our family, you're the one that's walked the most joyously
A bit of trouble and you run away from home
Let's not talk about that
It's this type of people that you can depend on behind the scenes
No real abilities, and desperately hopes for luck
Lately, the economy's isn't so good
It's a type of ability too [NOTE: He's talking about 'behind the scenes'.]
Godori [NOTE: He is also using phrases used in the game. Godori= combination of 3 bird cards]
It's coming
Come
Ttadak [NOTE: A phrase in the game indicating the changing into Flower cards.]
Uhmma
You have it?
You're dead
You are so dead
So dead
Don't move
Stop yah
Wait
Wait while I...
Don't move
The blue ribbons added to the red ribbons... [NOTE: There 10 cards with red and blue ribbon cards in the Hwatu set.]
Plus my own...
Did you just put down another one?
Plus the heundeum [NOTE: Heundeum= Holding 3 cards of the same month. It is a disadvantage, but if revealed at the beginning you get bonus points when you win.]
So added to the amount just now...
Wait
It's...
20 points
30 points
The last was the heaven's card
Plus...wait
24, 000 multiplied by 2
Yah
48,000
It's 48,000
Hand it over
Hurry and hand it over
Yuboseyo
Yah
Hang up
Take care of the account first
Just a moment
Yuboseyo
Yeh, this is Choi Kang speaking
Yeh
Just a moment
Yeh?
Mr. Jung Bo Gook? [Note: Choi Kang misheard. 'Jung Bo Gook' is pronounced the same as Intelligence Agency in Korean.]
I don't know that person
Aigoo, you little rascal [Note: Aigoo= Almost equivalent to a 'good grief'. Usually used by elder people.]
Give it back
Uhmma
He even hung up on a phone call from the Intelligence Agency
Looks like he really has a big backer
Agent Kim
Yeh?
Go and invite him
Yeh
Annyeong hasimnikka? [NOTE: Annyeong hasimnikka? = How are you?]
I am...
Such a bother...
I already said I don't like it
Yeh?
Bother me...
one more time and I'll uproot your solid teeth
Yeh?
Just let me live an ordinary life and stop bothering me
Are you cold?
Choi Kang?
Yeh
I am Yang Soo Gil
Ah yeh
Sit
I heard from Agent Kim
that you wish to live an ordinary life
Well no...about that...
For a talent like Mr. Choi Kang
This world won't let you live an ordinary life
Isn't that so?
Of course...
Looking at Mr. Choi Kang's appearance
makes me think of Kang Tai Gong's story way from long ago [NOTE: Kang Tai Gong= An advisor to the kings during the Zhou dynasty in China. Known as Jiang Zi Ya or Lu Shang, he was credited with writing, the 1st military strategic book, Liutao (Six Secret Strategic Teachings).]
Yeh?
Sitting beside the river
Fishing with a straight hook [NOTE: A famous story was the he often fished with a straight hook, with no bait, 3 feet above the water.]
while waiting for his chance
Exactly like Kang Tai Gong's leisurely, carefree mood and wisdom
Regardless
It was after much hard work that I am able to work with a hidden talent like yourself
Work together?
That's right, Choi Kang
Our Intelligence Agency needs
people who are able to fill all conditions
And so...
For our country and our people
Let's work our hardest together
That means...
I've...
been recruited?
Can you put your feet down?
Turn that off too
I apologize
for being late
I'm Gong Ju Yeon
Please take care of me
You've chosen some bothersome people
According to the aspects of the opponent
I've selected the top experts from each of their respective domains
I will recognize top abilities
But
due to problems in the organization, everything is worth half ripe
All have them are those pushed into idle duties
Will it be alright?
Eun Hyuk ah
People like Official Yang
who see team structure as more important than anything
won't accept this easily or lightly
Then let's just pretend none of this ever happened
And I'll return from where I came from
Right now...
Are you threatening me?
No
Just making my intentions clear
What is the newly accepted agent all about?
An unknown agent that has never been exposed is necessary
Alright
Assigning that person there should be alright
What 'person'?
Didn't you say you need agents who have never been exposed?
This person was a personal favor from the Blue House
That is...
Good
What is?
Can't figure out whether it is all feigned
So I'll let you keep him by your side
And check his background
We are agents from the Secret Intelligence Agency
Our existence is not known outside the country
Friends of course
Even in front of family we have to keep it secret
If it is necessary to give your profession
then say it's a publishing company
You're business cards will also be prepared that way
Then I'm even more curious
Why me?
Being able to differentiate between people and comrade
is another important cognitive ability we must possess
I'm also curious about something...
Perhaps you know the President very well?
Can't say 'very well', just a little...
How are you related?
This concerns the country's safety
Speaking on it would be a bit...
For bringing me back
Thank you very much
No need for thanks [NOTE: Literally translated "No need to be so polite."]
See you on Monday
Yes
Kangie, you...
Uhmma
You horrible people
My son is taught well
You're here to trick him into doing something again?
Leave quickly
Not leaving?
Uhmma, why are like this?
You move out of my way
Uhmuhnim, there seems to be some misunderstanding
Uhmuhnim?
Misunderstanding?
What is it this time?
Are you from the Blue House too?
Why?
The President is bringing the commendation himself this time?
What?
Still not going to leave?
Uhmuhnim, please calm down
You wicked salesman [NOTE: Pronunciation is the same as 'Pi Ra']
Why do have to come and drag my son along?
Leave
Still not leaving
I'll take care of the explaining
Leave quickly
Move away
Don't hold me back
'Pi Ra,' is it? [NOTE: Pi Ra= a famous academy]
Must be the Blue House's Pi Ra
Definitely out of the ordinary
There's clearly something going on
Recruit?
That's what he said
The recruitment is so sudden
What recruitment?
I reckon it's those marketing something people again
Regardless
The name says it's a publishing company
Publishing company?
That's right
The rascal who's never looked at a book
Why a publishing company all of a sudden?
Selling books is better than selling gold mattresses
What kind of publishing company is it?
He said he doesn't know
That's not right
How can he not know?
Exactly
At first he said he's an official
Zero something something agent
But in the end he said it's a publishing company
His every move
is very suspicious
