'Numbers' Kim Myung-soo X Choi Jin-hyeok, successful combination play again... Somatech saved
Jang Ho-woo (Kim Myung-soo) and Han Seung-jo (Choi Jin-hyuk)'s heart-to-heart cooperation in the MBC drama 'Numbers: Watchers in the Building Forest' (hereinafter referred to as 'Numbers'), which aired on the 7th, succeeded in outwitting Han Je-gyun (Choi Min-soo). Jang Ji-soo, who appeared as Joyce Jang (played by Kim Yu-ri) after erasing her past, foreshadowed the development of an unpredictable story as Haevit Construction learned all about the liquidation decision, raising the heart rate of viewers once again. The appearance of Ahn Seung-yeon (Bae Hae-seon), vice president of the audit department at Taeil Accounting Corporation, created another tension in the play. The scene in which Han Je-gyun and Ahn Seung-yeon, who check each other in check, fight their nerves after a meeting about Jisan Bank, recorded the highest viewership rating of 4.4% (based on Nielsen Korea households in the metropolitan area).
On this day's broadcast, Jang Ji-soo's 180-degree change, which reappeared after 5 years, surprised not only Jang Ho-woo and Han Seung-jo, but also Han Je-gyun. The changed appearance of Jang Ji-soo, who mercilessly speaks harsh words to Jang Ho-woo, who announces a report that says there is no reason to send Somatech to resuscitation, shocks everyone. Han Seung-jo, who lost his lover in an instant, began to feel emotions when he saw Ji-soo Jang reappear in front of him. Han Seung-jo, who was worried about Ji-soo Jang even after the contact was cut off. However, Ji-soo Jang did not show any emotional agitation to him and coldly pushed him away, saying, “The Ji-soo Jang at that time is no longer there.”
Jang Ho-woo and Han Seung-jo were not the only ones who were confused by Jang Ji-soo. Han Je-kyun was also embarrassed by the appearance of Jang Ji-soo, who became the manager of a private equity fund in Hong Kong, but completely changed his posture to obtain greater profits by selling Somatech. In particular, Han Je-kyun, who warned Han Seung-jo not to touch Ji-soo Jang, saying, “If people are different, the treatment should be different as well,” caused goosebumps by personally practicing the law of the jungle.
Ho-Woo Jang and Seung-Jo Han struggled to find another way after learning that the Hong Kong private equity fund intended to revive Somatech instead of merging it. Jang Ho-woo visited Ji-soo Jang and persuaded him to become an investor instead of forcibly taking Somatech's patented technology by sending it to rehabilitation, saying that he would spread Somatech's patented technology as an open source, but that method was unlikely to work. Jang Ho-woo conveyed that Han Seung-jo was not at fault in the decision to liquidate Haebit Construction and that everything was Han Je-gyun's plan, hoping that Ji-soo Jang would change his mind, but the situation did not change.
The moment that Han Je-gyun, Jang Ji-soo, and Jisan Bank President Jin Tae-soo (Kang Shin-il) all signed the documents to send Somatech back to life, the level of immersion reached its peak as Jang Ho-woo and Han Seung-jo started counterattacking. It was because Jang Ho-woo and Han Seung-jo appeared side by side and delivered the news that Somatech had completed repayment of all debts owed to Jisan Bank. This time, Jang Ho-woo, who got a hint from a conversation with Jin Yun-ah (played by Yeon-woo), came up with a way to use the Korean Intellectual Property Office with Somatech's technology as collateral. The same goes for Han Seung-jo. In this way, the two solved Somatech's financial difficulties in one shot, completely reversing the charter, and succeeded in cooperating again. In particular, the image of Han Seung-jo tearing up the paperwork sent to Somatech to the rehabilitation court while everyone was watching was enough to give a thrilling catharsis.
A series of crises came to Han Je-gyun. It is because Ahn Seung-yeon, the vice president of the audit department of the Taeil Accounting Corporation and the rival of Han Je-gyun, who had taken sick leave, unexpectedly appeared. With the appearance of Ahn Seung-yeon, who does not hide his check against Han Je-kyun, war clouds begin to roll over Taeil. Above all, the confrontation between Han Je-gyun's deal part and Ahn Seung-yeon's audit part over Jisan Bank, a client, began in earnest, giving a sense of tension that made the hands sweat.
Another secret hidden in the decision to liquidate Haebit Construction was also revealed. Someone from Taeil Accounting Corporation handed over Haevit Construction's patented technology to a private equity fund in Hong Kong, and Jang Ji-soo, who already knew this fact, even found out that the name of the person who handed over the patent right and made a profit began with 'AN'. Jang Ho-woo also recognized the existence of Ahn Seung-yeon, whom he first saw after joining the company, and at the same time, a scene drawing attention to his name amplified his curiosity. Indeed, it raises questions about what is the real reason for Jang Ji-soo's return to Korea, and what other truths are hidden in the Haebit Construction incident.
