Burn!

EP35 To Kim Ji-hoon

"Jihoon, how are you studying these days?"

"Yes, brother, I'm doing well. If you come home to me later, I'll pay you cheaply."

"Asshole, the dog's shit."

"Brother, what's going on today?"

"Can you find out something for me?"

"What is it?"

"It's a little urgent, but I need you to find out about a store near the tire building here and the people who work there."

"What?"

"I need a favor. I just need a contact number and a name."

"So I need you to find out as much as you can about the shops, credit card companies, banks, etc. next to the tire building."

"But if I ask at the bank or credit card company, they'll think I'm crazy."

"Then I'll give you a police uniform. Just leave a note saying I'm just checking your ID. Please."

"Okay, brother." 

I'm preparing another plan. Myung-heon has heard very good things about you. 

I just need someone to do the show.

"That's right, Ji-hoon, don't you realize you're a total loser?"

"What?"

"Like, there's no tomorrow. He needs money."

"I only know one, bro."

"Really?"

"What are you gonna use it for?"

"You know, I've been fighting for five years, and you know what's most important?"

"Suddenly?"

"That if my opponent is stronger than me, I have to make him weaker than me."

"Really?"

"Whatever, don't tell me if you don't want to. I'll even pay you an introduction fee if you let me know."

"I understand, big brother." 

He started his investigation right away. Based on the police uniform and official ID given to him by Park, he asked for his identity and name. At that time, a meeting was taking place on the other side. 

"Okay. Is your life difficult?"

"Yes. I want to die."

"Why?"

"Because I have a terminal illness."

"Really?"

I can see the sadness behind his bubbly face.

"And your parents?"

"They're not in touch."

"Is there no one around to take care of you?"

"No, I'm just on my own all the time, since I got out."

"You came to me because you need money, right?"

"Yes."

"What's your time limit?"

"Three months at the longest."

"Okay. Let's do a good deed."

"What's the point? We're on the same page."

Oddly enough, Kim's introduction worked well for the two men. 

Money and purpose are the most intuitive and smartest ways to move men. 

You announce the date you'll give him the gun and explain your plan. The day has now arrived.

EP35.5 Counterattack

"Sister"

"Huh?"

"Something about that bitch is disturbing me."

"Me too."

"Aren't we going to get in trouble for filming or something?"

Koo Bon-ho asks. 

"Sister. How long is our sentence?"

"Bonhoe, how old are you?"

"I'm 31 this year."

"You'll be out of society until you die."

"It's easier to kill yourself than to be punished."

"Keep your money straight. We're so fucked."

"Sis. Shall we move it to a Swiss account or somewhere untraceable?"

"Sure. You guys need to stop gambling and start saving some money."

They chat.

"She's been so good to us, we wouldn't have a living without her."

Everyone is stunned. The kids haven't eaten in almost two days. What are they doing? 

"You guys shouldn't be so high on drugs. I've been having trouble getting erections lately, you guys."

"We don't want this livelihood to disappear. We need to make it even more stimulating, even more energizing, and we're going to play second fiddle."

"What?"

"We're going to have to bring it to entertaining children, too. We've got a lot of kids copying us these days, and we're going to have to change it up."

"The children of presidents and high ranking humans are not worthy of a quadruped. They don't have sexually transmitted diseases, and they don't understand language."

"That's great, but don't you think they'll get caught doing that? Like a weakness?"

"They're prostitutes, too, so they'll get stung. I think we should retire with a big fat paycheck."

"The government has declared war on drugs and violent crime, haven't you seen the news?"

Chorus.

"Really?"

"We could get fucked, kids."

Gubonhoe asks

"Mr. Director, what if we get caught?"

"Kids, if the public finds out, we're done."

"We'll never be able to go back into society."

Mr. Chung smiles dubiously.

"Boys, we'll have to change our ways from now on."

They chorused in unison.

"How?"

"The demand for our videos has decreased a bit lately. Apparently, our concepts are limited, and even if we sell them to the assholes all over Amman, they get tired of them."

Jung Nam-yong strokes his few remaining strands of hair and adds a comment.

"So what. Should we have a group orgy?"

Kim Min-ju from the Idea Team chimes in.

"Asshole, the director is talking."

"That's right. We should dedicate it to political and business leaders who will look out for us."

"You guys should make a good list. Make sure they're not too tasteless. Or you can search for them and bring them in."

At that point, everyone looks puzzled and asks. 

"But she's young, do you think people in high places will like her?"

"I think they'll be in demand. I've already been approached by my relatives, and you know that 30% of our videos are consumed by Koreans, right?"

"Everyone bypasses the IP for payment, but our programmers ran the numbers. Most of them are from Gangnam."

"Can you feel it? Even in the yolk land of Gangnam, our videos work."

"And there's a lot of old men who like pederasty or virginal women, I know."

"So be on standby. And I've got work to do today, so I'm going first, so you can use this money for drinks."

They cheered in unison.

"As always, Mr. Director, we'll do our best to create and select the best work!"

"We have a great job, huh?"

In the other room, the children are huddled together, drooling from the side effects of the drug and wobbling on their legs.
