We signed an employment contract, not a slave contract.
A living human being,
gets angry when hit and fights back when attacked.
Mr. Joo.
Good morning!
Hello.
Fellow members, good morning.
Il Dong branch organized a union.
Are you stupid? We won't fire you for joining a union.
We will make up something to fire you.
Stop!
You do
what you can do.
We will do
What we can do.
Awl
This story begins on a certain day in June, 2003.
Episode 7
Perfect, isn't it?
Two apartment complexes on each side,
and townhouses in the back.
A restaurant has gone out of business, and so has a cafe.
and the most recent one was a beer pub,
Why would you want to sell liquor at this location?
You can just tell this spot is for a produce market.
Deposit is in your range,
with almost no premium.
No other produce markets in the area?
You've been checking out the neighborhood for months.
No store has opened.
The little fruit market over there closed few days ago.
Small neighborhood business depends solely on the location.
Sir,
What?
Sorry, but can we think about it for just one day?
There is nothing to think about.
You can tell the location is golden.
It's not like you don't have money.
You guys have been preparing for a while.
This kind of opportunity doesn't come everyday.
One day.
Just one day, please.
I will call you in the morning tomorrow.
All right, fine.
I can't hold this for you too long.
Call me soon.
Thank you for looking out for us.
Take care.
Good bye.
Joo Hwang Produce.
Hello, welcome.
What if the disciplinary teacher catches us?
I hid our desks and chairs and he never calls the roll.
Don't worry.
Where are we going by the way?
You will thank me when we get there.
Really?
I am following you as a guardian like a parent of an idiot child.
Where to anyhow?
I got us a date with college girls.
Seriously?
You should have told me earlier.
Let's go!
It's freaking high.
What do we do now?
Let's just go to class.
Whose class is it?
The disciplinary teacher's.
Excuse me!
Anyone over there?
Throw our bags please!
We can be Millionaires Too!
Hwang Jun-cheol! Come out now!
Come out!
Right now!
I won't see you again if you don't come out now!
Get your hand off him!
I am applying to Fourmis.
Fourmis?
Why?
I want to learn the business and make some connections,
so that I can open up a produce market later.
And if it goes well, turn it into a chain.
Are you in?
You are serious?
If this is for real, I will work my ass off for you.
Why would you work for me?
We will be partners.
I got a name too.
Joo Kang-min, Hwang Jun-cheol,
So, Joo Hwang Produce market
Joo Hwang.
Produce market.
What do you want to do?
You?
I asked you first.
If we quit the union now,
other members will have hard times, right?
Hey,
Having Mr. Koo and Mr. Lee is enough.
We don't do anything.
What do you mean nothing?
You are the branch organizer.
Stop worrying about others. What do you want to do?
You are worrying about them too.
Why didn't you put down the deposit if you weren't?
We've been preparing for this since we dropped out of high school.
There is nothing more to consider.
Is there?
No one is going to stay if you step out.
In any case,
we'd have stayed at Fourmis for few more years if this place didn't come up.
Let's just forget about it.
Are you doing this because of me?
Hey, don't.
I don't want you to blame me later.
It's not because of you, you idiot.
Everything's not about you.
You still think the world revolves around you.
Mr. Joo Kang-min.
It's a sickness.
Sickness in head.
Nice impression of Mr. Koo!
I don't know.
I really don't.
I just want to win one time.
Just once.
What do I have?
I've got no skills,
nothing to show for,
I got no family money,
I don't think I have won once in my life.
You,
Mr. Lee,
Mr. Koo,
and other members,
together with everyone, just once,
really,
just once,
Hey, what's wrong?
Where is this coming from?
I got something in my eye, jerk.
Yes, Mr. Lee.
Mr. Joo.
I am sorry.
While I was talking to Gaston,
I lost it and declared war.
I am sure you had a reason.
He probably deserved it.
What do we do?
What else?
Let the games begin.
According to employment contract,
retail workers work no more than eight hours a day.
The time they actually stay in the store
is at least eight and half hours, not counting the lunch time.
Good afternoon, valued customers at Fourmis,
Starting at four p.m., we will have a flash sale,
the time spent to change into uniform,
the time not taken into account for overtime pay
the customary practices of giving up free time for company.
Now
is the time to turn on our own traffic light.
Morning shift!
Go home.
Morning shift, clock out now.
Ye-bin, Seo Min-ho, go home.
You can go home.
Ladies!
You guys can clock out.
Hey,
Hwang Jun-cheol.
Are you out of your mind?
Who are you to tell them to go home?
We need to clock out now and change clothes if we want to leave at four.
Our shift is for eight hours.
Seo Min-ho.
Is Hwang Jun-cheol your manager?
Put that hat back on your head.
You can't leave the store like this.
Miss. Hwang, what are you doing?
Aren't you going to work?
Don't you know that this is a disruption of business?
Are you guys going to make up the loss?
Don't start if you don't know what you are doing.
Hey, guys.
Let's go home. We all clocked out.
Say good bye.
Why are you standing there? Take this!
She is an employee of the supplier company.
Fourmis has no right to order her around.
Mr. Lee, what is this?
What do you think you are doing?
Excuse me, do something about this. I can't get through.
Yes, I am coming.
There is a sign for sale, but the box is empty.
Hey, do something about this. I can't even get through!
Can we really leave like this?
He shouldn't stock bananas like that.
Organizations do not work only by rules and means of control.
Sorry, I have an emergency.
Can you watch my section for a while?
Sure, go ahead.
Thank you.
Friendship and sympathy between co-workers,
the sense of belonging to the organization.
We are one person short today, so stay little longer.
Yes, sir.
If we eliminate customary practices built on human goodness and frailty,
organizations will stop working.
Every organization that enforces rationality,
prey on irrationality of humanity.
What a lovely weather!
I thought the world would end,
but not a thing happened.
Let's go to karaoke, Mr. Lee.
Good idea!
We are supposed to go to the consulting center for lecture.
We can invite Mr. Koo to the karaoke.
Let's go, please!
I don't know what to say to Mr. Koo.
Don't worry, I will call him.
It's fine, I will call him.
I said I will call him.
Right.
Hello.
Mr. Koo.
Let's go to Karaoke, Mr. Koo.
Oh, hi.
This is a little inappropriate-
Let's go, please.
Where are you?
You are at Fourmis, right?
I will be be right there.
I am home actually.
Already?
Where do you live?
Je-ju Island,
I'm an island man.
Je-ju Island?
Yes.
You were here a moment ago.
Me?
You must have seen someone who looks like me.
I will see you next time then.
Bye, take care.
What is this mess?
Can't you control your members of Il Dong Branch?
Did you forget about the obligation to keep peace during bargaining?
Well, we have no power to control.
Who listens to the organizers who can't get an agreement for years?
Because the company takes us lightly, even our members don't respect us.
Who's taking you lightly?
We are bargaining now, aren't we?
Peace agreement.
Does it apply to the union only?
What about termination threats and unlawful labor practice by the company?
What termination threat?
You only listened to Mr. Lee's side of story.
The company's been giving warnings and penalty to the union members only.
If this isn't a termination threat and unlawful labor practice, then what is?
That's because troublemakers tend to join a union.
We are not picking them out!
troublemakers?
Have you seen my employee work profile?
I was chosen as the employee of the month three times.
I started the union because the company has too many issues.
Why on earth would I read a work profile of low level staff?
As a Human Resources Executive,
I have so many things to do.
At any rate, we won't bargain unless you control Il Dong branch.
Hey, I am so sorry about that, I swear next time,
Mr. Joo!
Yes, ma'am.
Can we also go home early if we join the union?
We are going home on time, not early.
Why? Are you interested?
I am just worried,
Are you sure we won't get into trouble?
We are only asking them to honor the employment contract.
Even when we get into trouble, it's going to be me and Mr. Lee, not you.
That's right,
French managers take two hours of lunch time as they do in France.
We are asking for fifteen minutes.
Hey,
If you overthink, you won't be able to do anything.
All right.
Here are applications including mine and other staffs in my department.
You have to come by our section later and let us out, OK?
Of course, will do.
Keep it up!
Take care, ladies.
How many?
Thirty five.
If I were doing a pyramid scheme, I'd have been a gold level.
If we don't stop this before it gets bigger, we would give them more power.
It's obvious what the legal department would say.
Forget about legal department, we should take an action now.
It's so frustrating.
Even with water and fertilizer, it just won't grow.
If it can't grow like other plants,
then I should just cut it off
and get another plant.
Even if the union files a lawsuit, it will take years to get a verdict.
Before that, we'd be able to get rid of Lee Su-in and the union.
we need to stop them now.
Idiot.
Members, it's time to go home. Clock out!
Financial report of The Mug Club Donation for July, 2003.
The jaw; $200, The nut: $150, the schnozzle; $250, the cheeks: $100.
Total $700.
Expense.
$221.20 for printer toner cartridges.
$14 for Fax paper rolls, and-
Hey, peeper.
Do we really have to go through this?
Just say you miss me if you do.
You already mailed this to me, and you made me come here.
You are the treasurer.
What if I take the money to a strip club?
Yeah, right.
I wish you'd go to a place like that.
You've got to learn to have fun once in a while.
Do you have fun?
My bad.
Let's not ask such essential questions.
Your Fourmis guys are fun.
How is it going?
They began to undertake work-to-rule action.
Already?
Are they going on strike?
Do they have the organizational power?
The company began to wield the rule card, so they decided to do the same.
We will go by the rules then.
You said they also violate tons of labor laws.
We might get punished for doing illegal job action.
What?
Why is illegal to follow the laws?
That makes no sense!
It's not that simple.
Industrial action refers to any measure taken to disrupt normal course of business.
It's a customary practice rather than a legally appropriate action,
day-to-day business can be included in the normal course of business,
In order to proceed with the action legally,
we need approval of at least half of the members,
file an application for mediation, and wait ten days-
Fourmis union can start industrial action.
Sorry?
We are in the bargaining process.
Doesn't it begin when the bargaining falls short and the members vote to do it?
Fourmis is negotiating while in the industrial action phase.
And it is in a dispute, since there has been no agreement.
Even if it were not in a dispute,
there hasn't been a case regarding supermarket chains.
Besides, not all work-to-rules can be considered industrial action.
I will explain in details in a lecture next time.
Then,
would we get prosecuted if we do this?
How should I know?
If you want to stick to laws, then go be a judge.
We won't know whether it's legal or not until next winter.
But we need to act now.
Are you going to do it only when you know you won't get punished?
What's the point of winning the lawsuit after all the member are fired?
It won't even go to a court if the union has power,
but if the union is weak, you can be sued for just breathing.
As long as it's doable,
Do it.
What is the maximum punishment?
Gee, you are persistent.
If you didn't hit someone or break something,
then the worst you can get is fine for the organizer and steward.
They are something though, aren't they?
There are all kinds of people in supermarket chain.
You are right.
It's different from a factory where all the workers have similar backgrounds.
people from all kinds of social class work at a supermarket.
And there are so many different jobs.
Company can easily win over boys with promotion opportunities.
If only the company had a grip on boys, the union can't be organized.
Boys are always the best weapon for company, but they lost them.
All thanks to the manager at Seafood Department.
If he just began by firing contractors,
it'd have been over by now as Lee Su-in's one man show.
They shouldn't have messed with the assistant manager.
Unions are raised not by unions' good work but by companies' mess up.
By the way,
That guy, Lee Su-in, I can tell by his face alone that he's intense.
How did he manage to survive?
It's interesting.
He worries a lot and hates confrontation,
but he doesn't know how to avoid fights.
I feel like looking at my younger self.
In what way?
Face.
What is that brick doing here?
I brought it to adjust the desk.
Perfect!
How is this perfect?
Time for a part-timer to go home.
Watch your back at night!
I think you should watch your back.
Who? Chung Min-cheol?
He's got snubbed again.
He's got no connections or whatsoever.
Considering he hadn't even gone through recruitment,
it's a miracle that he's made this far.
Promotion, my ass!
Good morning, sir.
Are you okay?
You should go to the hospital now!
Hurry, go now!
I will talk to the managers.
No, I am fine.
It was my fault.
Why would I make the company-
pay for this?
Really, I am okay.
I will just put on some antibiotic cream.
I'll go get the cream and come back.
I am sorry.
Chung Min-cheol: Promotion Before :Meat Dept. Manager After: Il Dong Branch Senior Manager
Are you Chung Min-cheol?
Yes, sir.
You are the new general manager.
Congratulations your promotion.
Thank you, sir.
I heard about it.
I was careless.
No,
The company should have taken care of it.
It's little late, but take care of that with this money.
No, sir.
How can I take company money for something I did wrong?
I should apologize for troubling you with this.
Aren't you something?
Take it.
This is from me personally.
Let's get a drink some day.
Hasn't it become super tight since the thumb became the manager?
Who's the thumb?
Chung Min-cheol.
His tendon got severed in the accident,
So he can't do this.
That's why he's called the thumb.
Joo Kang-min.
Have everyone back to work.
What are we waiting? Let's go home.
Yes, sir.
Get out of the way.
Stop them.
What the hell?
Pay us if you want us to work overtime.
Get out of the way!
Mister, you know me.
You guys are disobeying an order.
Get off me.
I am warning-
Don't touch me!
Let me handle this please.
If it can't grow like other plants, then I should cut it off
and plant something else.
What's wrong with you?
I didn't push you that hard.
Mr. Joo.
Yes.
A witness.
Find out if there is a witness and get contact information.
Okay!
Miss. Han.
Miss. Han!
You think you can attack people just because you are in a union now?
You guys are always referring to laws,
You are a bunch of thugs, aren't you?
Are you?
Look at the blood.
I am filing a complaint, okay?
I will see you in court.
They are total thugs.
Young-shill.
We all saw it. She barely pushed him.
Won't he agree to settle if we drop work-to-rule action?
Think about it!
The one that caves in first loses in a case like this.
We've got to push it even harder to make him drop the complaint.
She's right.
If we cave in now because of few drops of blood,
they will strike us back.
We are used to seeing bloods on forehead, aren't we?
Mr. Hwang over here has shown us plenty of those.
It really isn't a big deal.
Nam Dong-hyup.
Next time, bang your head first.
We'll win because you do it with style.
Are you having fun?
Having fun?
Is it a lot of fun, huh?
Is it fun?
Aren't you scared?
Sorry?
You never lose your smile.
Are you asking me as a manager or as a steward?
As a manager, Mr. Joo.
I am scared.
I am, but-
You are worrying for both of us.
It's not like I do anything as an organizer.
so I thought I should smile and cheer up at least.
This is what I do well.
What do you mean you are not doing anything?
We couldn't have come this far without you.
They join the union because of you.
I got my Fresh Produce team, but ladies from other departments came for you.
When you first came to our branch,
all the ladies were excited to have a young and handsome manager.
They called me an idiotic psycho-
Any witness?
Anyone?
There were too many people surrounding the scene.
The company won't let you see the security camera,
Cheer up, no one's dead.
Two weeks hospitalization is nothing when you do union.
After a couple of more lawsuits, you will get used to it.
It will take months before the case is tried in court,
and they can't punish her before the verdict is made.
We can handle this through bargaining before that.
Focus on expanding the union now.
For what?
Why did he have to be so extreme?
If you get attacked by a crazy man on the street, you should run or fight back,.
Why is he crazy?
What's the point?
I understand that he wants to dismantle the union,
but he didn't have to hurt himself.
I just told you he's crazy.
He's hopping mad right now.
Think of what you've done.
You've seen a kid like this.
A loner who's not good at anything and not even nice.
The bottom of the power hierarchy.
Imagine you two are the most popular boys in school.
Lee Wan-seok.
Such a dork.
Keep an eye out for the teacher.
Lower your eyes.
Anybody can treat him like dirt,
Everyone thinks that he can beat him up.
You've seen a guy like this.
Of course!
The loser!
What if this happens?
Lee Wan-seok.
Such a dork.
Keep an eye out for the teacher.
Lower your eyes.
Joo Kang-min.
You got big-headed recently.
It's annoying, so stop being such a prick.
Is he out of his mind? How dare he?
But he's actually good at fighting.
You can't win.
What did you say?
Huh?
Hey, hey.
Are you all right?
You want to beat him up so bad, but you can't.
It's exasperating.
That's how Mr. Chung feels right now.
I totally get it.
Gosh, we are annoying.
I almost sympathize with Mr. Chung now.
Do you get it too, Mr. Lee?
First step should be
asking that friend why he hates me so much.
It's fine.
Some people are naturally unemotional.
Do people really get used to this?
After a couple of trip to a cop shop, you will get used to it.
What about guilt?
That I might ruin someone else's life,
What about such fear?
That's pathological.
You just live with it.
She's one strong lady, huh?
How hard do you have to push someone to split the forehead open?
He banged his head against the wall.
No kidding.
He must want to fire her real bad.
Crazy.
Imagine how livid he must have been to do such thing.
Are they self-injury scammers or managers?
Young-shil.
Are you going to the police station now?
Yeah.
You must be so scared.
Does your husband know?
It's not something to brag about.
What if he finds it out later and kicks you out?
Oh yeah?
I will thank him if he does.
I wish he would kick me out.
Young-shil, this is Xanax.
Take it before going in.
You shouldn't have.
Don't worry, it's not like I killed someone.
Miss. Han.
Let me drive you to the police station.
I can go by myself.
You should go back to work.
No.
I will drive you.
I'm really okay.
Let's go.
I told you I could go by myself.
you didn't really have to come along.
Are you going to be okay?
You are already their target.
What if you get into trouble for this?
Mr. Joo is talking to the security team,
and we can work this out before it goes to court.
Don't worry too much.
Why would I worry when I did nothing wrong?
You are the one who should relax.
You look as if you aged a year overnight.
I heard you are from the army,
how did a worrier like you survive the army life?
Here.
Take this and feel better.
Bye now.
I will see you tomorrow.
I don't have a family.
My parents died when I was young.
That's why I got married young.
But this husband of mine,
He's always thinking of making money,
instead of working.
So we get into fight all the time.
But
I don't have a family to turn to.
Things got better since I'd started to work at Fourmis.
Here, I have friends who listen to my problems.
And people who ask me for advices.
Plus, I make money.
When I got my first paycheck,
I went to Chinese restaurant with the money,
it felt as if
my father were taking me out for dinner.
Young-shil.
Good job.
I am proud-
I am proud of you.
It's like a family to me.
Fourmis is my real home.
Take a seat here, I will be right back.
Yes, officer.
You aren't going to say anything?
Tell me your name!
Han Young-shil!
What about guilt?
That I might ruin someone's life,
What about such fear?
That's pathological.
You just live with it.
Win.
Then, you won't have to feel sorry.
Your name?
Han Young-shil.
Han
Young-shil.
Social security number?
Six, four, zero, five, two, two
Two, zero, zero, nine, eight, one.
Speak up.
Two, zero, zero, nine, eight, one
one, one.
You remember pushing Mr. Chung, yes?
I didn't.
Well, we'll find it out soon enough.
Sorry, will there be witnesses from my side?
Mr. Lee and other people promised to testify for me.
Mr. Lee, you are one stubborn man.
Why didn't you go home?
Because
I am sorry.
You don't have to be.
Unlawful labor practices are more common than you think.
What's the advantage of joining a union?
That you are not alone,
You are doing it together.
When company treats you unfairly,
you can get together,
through solidarity,
you can fight together.
We are demanding our employee rights
through peaceful negotiations,
not by fighting and being aggressive.
For instance, there is a eight-hour day rule in labor laws.
I should have gone over there. I am sorry.
Of course I should have come to support my members.
For the cause, I can carry much heavier than this.
I put some extras.
There was a contract workers in your branch, right?
Yes, one lady from Seafood department.
What is your plan?
Wouldn't it be better to have her as a secret member for now?
If they don't renew the contract because of her involvement with the union,
there's nothing we can do for her.
We still have to try to do something.
You are right.
However,
It's not easy to make people get involved in someone else's fight.
No need to be so restless.
You are doing a great job now.
I will come back when you guys open.
Fight on!
What is it this time?
You came in late last night and skipped the breakfast this morning.
Eat this.
You didn't really-
Don't even start if you are going to tell me to quit the union.
As if it isn't bad enough that I can't even get my own mother to join.
I'm just-
You saw Miss. Han and Mr. Lee going to the police station yesterday.
They did nothing wrong, you saw it too.
You know what a bundle of nerves I am.
If you ever have to go to the police station,
I won't be able to take it.
Even if that happens, I won't be alone.
There's Mr. Lee,
Kang-min,
They are different from you.
Mr. Lee, Mr. Joo, Mr. Hwang, they all have something to depend on-
So what?
What about a sucker who has nothing?
He should just give up, is that it?
I didn't mean it like that.
Eat slowly, you will get sick.
I've got things to do.
Dong-hyup.
Listen to me for a second.
Have I
ever asked you for anything?
No, right?
You admit it, right?
Do you think
I never asked because there was nothing I wanted?
It's because I knew you wouldn't be able to get it for me.
because I knew it'd only break your heart.
I know I don't have anything, just as you said.
I know it.
Still,
I want to do this.
I should give this up too?
Must I give up everything in life?
I won't ever ask you for anything.
So,
Don't ask me to give up something I do.
Honey.
Sir, Mr. Chung from Il Dong Branch is here.
How are you, sir?
I am busy today, so don’t let anyone in.
Yes, sir.
What is your size?
Large, please.
Large?
Mr. Hwang.
Do we have anything that's more form-fitting?
I sincerely regret to say no, we don't have any.
This is too loose to show off my curves.
Are you going on a date in that uniform?
Is there any man you want to show off your curves?
Is there really?
Who is it?
Mr. Lee?
Mr. Joo?
Neither of them?
Whoever it is stepped in poop.
Shoot, I stepped in poop.
No, you can't come in with your feet in poop!
I can't come into my own office?
I can't go into my company either.
I have things to do, get out of my way.
No, you can't.
Step out before I call those security guys at my company.
Happy now?
Where is Seong-hak?
I told him not to feed those stray cats. I stepped on their poop.
Where is he?
On the rooftop, feeding cats.
This guy-
By the way, the cute guy is here.
Cute guy?
Su-in.
I got kicked out of high school for fighting when I was seventeen.
I was young and brazen and didn't know anything about real world.
The real world was no joke.
I've been a nightclub waiter,
a factory guy,
then I got a bus repair job.
It's not that I had skills.
The job was in high demand.
I learned few skills and everything was going well,
except this one jerk at work.
He treated all the mechanics like dirt.
That's why we got together to overthrow him.
We started the strike to be treated like human beings,
but the solution came in money.
They couldn't fire him because he was the CEO's cousin.
So they gave us a raise of $300.
I guess that was enough money to compensate being treated like dirt.
I held out.
All by myself.
The fight to be treated like a human being
got me treated like a cockroach.
So, I quit.
And the economic crisis happened.
Mr. Cha Seong-hak?
Here.
What is this?
It's nothing.
Just sign it.
I skimmed through, and it looked like an offer for yearly contract.
I had no notion of permanent job and contract job.
I just thought that
I would be able to ask for a raise every year when I renew the contract.
So I signed it.
That moment,
I turned from a permanent worker to a contract worker.
When I realized my mistake and gathered people who had signed,
they were all troublemakers in the company's eye.
Being a contractor
is an interesting thing.
I go to work at the same time and do the same thing,
but there are so many things I can't do anymore.
I can't go to the company meeting,
I can't make a complaint to the company.
We are not allowed to form unions.
I am sorry.
I don't know if we could take in contractors yet.
You can stay as a secret member for now, and later-
I really am sorry.
Tell them I forced you to go to those lectures and clock out early.
The lecture-
I went there all by myself because I wanted to.
Why do you have to be sorry?
You are doing a good thing.
It's like I handed a sharper sword to an executioner
who'd been waiting to cut off my neck.
Who wouldn't be scared when his head can be chopped off any minute.
If they don't like you, they will just stop renewing the contract.
I finally got to convince some people, and we went to see the manager.
Do you know who was there to stop us?
The ones who obeyed the company.
The ones who kept their job for that.
In the end,
the contract expired and never got renewed.
We formed a union among ourselves.
We protested in front of the company,
filed a civil lawsuit in court.
We won the first instance,
but lost in a court of appeals.
We took it to supreme court,
It takes two years to get the final verdict.
We waited out for two years and won the case.
We all got our job back.
That's good.
I felt anxious as I was getting ready for work in two years.
Hello.
You know the field next to the parking lot?
Yes.
You can clock in there.
Yes, sir.
Start digging.
This is your job from now on.
Slow down, man.
No need to work so hard when you have to put it all back later.
What's the point?
You'd love to bury me there, no?
Can't you let me clean the restrooms or something?
You are paying me money to do this?
Cleaning?
That would give you a sense of achievement.
I know that your kind of people,
they endure anything when there is a sense of achievement.
Did you
think that they would throw you a welcome back party?
The company hired a manager just for me.
He is clueless about fixing cars,
but he sure knows how to drive people mad.
Time to go home.
Stop there.
Fill it back.
When the words stop there came from his mouth,
I almost said thank you.
Then are you still-
Still digging.
If I quit,
it's going to give him the sense of achievement.
In depriving him of that sense of achievement,
I get a sense of achievement.
Wouldn't it be better for you if you quit?
Why don't you quit, Mr. Lee?
What?
I don't really care about getting fired from Fourmis.
I get a minimum wage anywhere I go,
What difference would it make if I get another job?
I worked here for a long time because they'd said I could get promoted.
Obviously, that's not going to happen.
If it's going to be the same anywhere I go, I'd rather fight when I can.
Each person has his or her own battle.
Whether to go through the battle or not
is a decision of one's own.
I decided to fight.
I won't blame you even if I get fired,
I am not the kind of person who would sacrifice myself for the union,
so no need to feel pressure.
Is that mine?
Yes.
Thank you.
These people are not the privates scared out of their minds.
And I am not a captain pointing a gun at my soldiers.
We are only fighting our individual battles together.
Hello, everyone.
We are members of National Trade Union Fourmis Korea Il Dong Branch.
What is this?
Take that off now.
Miss. Park.
Take it off now.
Why are you asking for trouble? Huh?
What's all this commotion because of Il Dong branch?
You couldn't handle firing few people?
If you don't handle this soon, you will be responsible for all this.
Go to the exit next to the parking lot near the storage.
Oh my gosh.
Who did this?
Where are you going?
Isn't this illegal strike?
Stop it!
What did I do?
Oh my god, look at this!
What am I going to do?
Mr. Lee, what's wrong with our paycheck?
We are so screwed.
What is this?
What happened to my paycheck?
