    " I hope HG had not done illegal acts in regards to buying the stocks and manipulating the price. Did she do it illegally?  Can they put her into prison over this?"

    No it is not illegal as she is buying the stock directly from the stock market, it is just that she is buying the stocks under a "proxy" to avoid detection that she is trying to boast her majority of her shares. Just as much that MTS is doing the same. At the end of the episode he just want to know who had been "challenging" in buying up the shares as the had found the identity of the buyer but they know that he is not buying the share with his own money, but under someone else finances.....MTS ponder who it may be in the background trying to buy up Cheon Nyeon Pharm shares

    MTS finally realise that he been dupe

    MTS: From the very start this is what you covet.....how well that you had decisive in planning to your accordance...using Pudoxon to "ruined" me.using Kim Seon Young to 'entrap" me..farce to sham me into believing that the Prosecutor Office will start an investigation on me

    HK: Yes

    MTS; From the very start you already "had" (got hold) the memo 

    HK: Yes

    MTS: For the sake to mislead me, you had me dupe that Mun Tae Jun's Hyeong had pretend to had "dismiss" Baek Seok...letting me to try to "buy off" his family members

    HK: Yes

    MTS: This will violate your ethics as a lawyer 

    HK: Anyhow, this will be my last & final lawsuit to be reckon

    MTS: What are you trying to prattle in saying what!!

    HK: Once the investigation proceed....it is best that you acknowledge in admitting to your wrongdoings...before you are arrested, be sure that you kneel before my dongsaeng (YK) & confess your crimes & humbly render your sincere apology

    Sugab (수갑) literally is handcuff.....which means being arrested

    MTS: DO HAE KANG!!!

    HK: Don't delay (wait) until the 3rd hearing...now if you admits to your wrongdoing, in falsified the clinical trial (pudoxin), it is not deem too late...No matter whether you admitted or not...as of now...you are finished (doom)...before you are to being demander to court, it is best that you live your life like a human being while entering into prison...looking at your crimes is deem quite gloomy...once you enter...you may never able to get out again

    MTS tries to hit HK as BS tried to stop him. MTS grab BS by the collar & pushes him down to the bench. HK goes to BS

    HK: Seok ah!

    HK goes to MTS & give him a tight slap across his face...as MTS tries to retaliate SR comes in & play MTS voice recording in admitting to falsifying the clinical trials, the involvement in the death of Kim Seon Young...attempting to kill off YK but instead HK was "kill off"...if the truth is reveal, it will be the death of him

    BS: Seol Ri?

    SR: The voice recording I had sent it through your email (HK)...I will delete mine...as for this person...Do Hae Kang ssi.....whichever you see fit, it is up to you

    "Can someone kindly explain the scene where JE didn't want to get in the elevator with HG when leaving office.
    Then HG mumbled something about snowfall and stuff.....Don't really understand what she was getting at."

    The next time you want to request for a scene, is to provide some timing, so that we don't have to search the whole episode for the particular scene

    JE waiting in the lift to go down as HK comes, he offers the lift for HK to go down while giving an excuse that he will wait for the next lift that comes. HK takes the offer goes down the lift alone

    HK: Do you know that your last/final snowfall belongs to me.....do not forget that how you endure (suffered) the snow with me together, as for me...that day which was the coldest of snowfall, is my warmest of days...it is best said that was the day that we endure the day worth of snowfall together, you need to remember that...Choi Jin Eon

    Let me put on my Sigmund Freud thinking cap

    Snowfall/storm denotes sorrow & disappointment in failure to enjoy some long expected pleasure...it is also the personification of excessive personal ambitions, because of which the surrounding people who you love may be offended or your plans remained unfulfilled 

    While HK claims that the coldest of days is her warmest...may suggest that HK is acknowledging & releasing of emotions that had been repressed...overcoming her fears & obstacles of her tainted lost of innocence & impurity & hopefully a clean start & a fresh, new perspective, indicative of peace & tranquility

    " Was the document JE handed in to HG against MH or TS? "

    The document that JE handed is the arsenal/ammunition for HG to go against MH, while it will bypass MTS who also claim to have the list but MTS but he wanted to "barter" with HK for his corporate survival over JE attempt to "dismiss" him from his designation (over the illegal bugging at his office) through an emergency shareholder meeting to be held in 10 days time 

    With the document in possession that is given by JE, she need not to compromise with MTS & full steam ahead in dealing in getting MH to be held account for Mido Pharm 

    End of Episode 42 

    HK & JE met at the corridors of the office

    HK: What is the matter?

    JE handed HK the Prosecutor Office Undergraduate List, marked confidential, HK reading the cover note is taken aback

    JE: From My Father clutches, this will safeguard (protect) you...for your hatred & my deep shame.....it will not be possible for us to be together again......your action in court today was excellent, you are indeed remarkable...it will be a pity if you would no longer be in the legal profession...it will be my wish & hope that you continue with this profession.....together with Lighthouse (deungdae, 등대, BS)

    JE leaves...leaving HK dumbfounded holding to the document

    " Supreme Prosecutor Office is known as Gyeom Chal Cheong i wonder if he is also  corrupted by MH dirty money...wow what will HG do next?This is a very corrupt network... i think that 's why MH is so calm...he is sure that he will be able to bring down HG!!!That she will be the only one responsible for MIDO CASE!!"

    I don't think you put the whole institution of the Prosecutors' Office under your "payroll"...I am sure there will be some Prosecutors who will be upright & righteous to be transparent like the drama "Punch"...justice will prevail

    With the implication of the list, the Prosecutors who are listed will be deem a misdemeanor & unfit to prosecuted the case

    JE gave a document to HK

    What the document said

    Heading "잘 관리  대상 리스트" (Prosecutors' office undergraduate list)

    " 잘" (Gyeom Chal, the Supreme Prosecutor Office is known as Gyeom Chal Cheong - 검찰청)

    "관리" (GwanRi - undertaking) while "대상" is University student

    "리스트" (li seu teu is the hangeul spelling out of the english word "LIST"

    Meanwhile I had given earlier

     "대외비" ( 對外秘 which is literally means "confidential")

    I hope this will give you a clear indicator on what document did JE hand to HK

    " Am curious. Is drinking coffee after every meal a norm among the Koreans?"

    Yes...it is the norms not on meals but any time, Korean drink more coffee than they eat kimchi now.....instant coffee sachet  (coffee,sugar & creamer, all in one) & teabags available as "service" (on the house, free of charge) in restaurants & even in banks. I have never been directed to a vending machine for my coffee.

    coffee-6.jpg

    You can get similar vending machine in Korea, where coffee in can or bottle is serve hot & cold

    40% of coffee consumption in Korea are instant coffee but lately Koreans had started to patronise freshly brew coffee shop & cafe & drip brew coffee is becoming popular.

    When I go to Korea, I bring my own drip on coffee for my quick caffeine fix at my hotel room.....if Starbucks is available then I will have my usual Grande 4 shots Americano, while the Korean will tend to order Iced Americano  (even it is winter) & pump profusely on the syrup dispenser

    There is a point to ponder on the dinning table between Prosecutor Kim & Chairman Choi.

    Although Prosecutor Kim is cordially is taking up drinks with Chairman Choi, when Chairman Choi offer Prosscutor Kim, the seasonal of expensive sashimi, Prosecutor Kim declines that he had too many sashimi meal & decided to eat some other dishes that is on table...so we don't know whether Prosecutor Kim is totally "sold"

    There is a great differences in texture between the Korean Hoe (Hwae, 회 sashimi) & the Japanese sashimi

    Korean sashimi basically on white fish....& usually the fish is killed fresh minutes before serving while Japanese sashimi goes through a time of settlement process before serving. I am sure that you can't serve freshly killed blue fin tuna or salmon & serve it on a platter

    Why Prof Min & WJ is wearing mask when they enter YK room

    Korea is prone to winter flu & the seasonal flu can reach epidemic levels

    There are 3 types of Influenza A (Dok Gam, 독감, Influenza) viruses which include the 2009 Influenza A subtype H1N1 that spread globally & Korea recorded the highest number of Influenza A (H1N1), although current strain is less virulent in the past. Flu season traditionally in Korea peaks from December - January

    Thank you for your transcript of Chairman Choi & HK exchange

    " Looks like I raised a white-eyed wolf (Symbolism of ungrateful people)"

    As the above translation may have taken from the Chinese translation....which have put the Chinese saying white eye wolf ( 白眼狼)

    MH uses a Korean saying or proverb (Sok Dam, 속담) on HK that he had indeed raise a tiger cub (horang  saekki - tiger offspring 호랑 새끼) in his midst, which also indicated to an ungrateful person

    In Korea, tiger is seen as a "national“ animal of the Korean people & the hero of many proverbs, sayings, tales and legends. It also acts as a malicious and treacherous creature (since tiger is deem extinct or on the brink in Korea), sometimes the tiger is personalised with traits of thanklessness, ingratitude, greed, avarice & falsehood or is used to induce fear on the weaker animals.....e.g. Beom eul gil ryeo san ae noni juin eul munda  (범을 길려 산에 놓니 주인을 문다 - The tiger bit his own master who brought it up & launched it (set free) into the forest  is similar to  "rear a snake in your bosom" taken from Aesop Fables)

    " Actually, I am not sure what is happening !  Except, as someone already said, "THE PLAN" (BS & HK) is working so far! "

    In Episode 40.....BS & HK discuss their strategy & plan in working ahead of MTS, making MTS to move, so that they can counter

    HK  goes to "hint" MTS to take the initiative in paying restitution compensation to dismiss the case to the bereave family of Mun Tae Jun in which it will upset the family members as they are not in for the money, hence in the preview the "throwing" the money to HK - taking the brunt of their upset as she is Cheon Nyeon Pharm representative lawyer.

    This action will provoke the family members to refuse a postponement of the case & they will engage a new lawyer to proceed their lawsuit (wonder who might that be) & BS can assist as co-lawyer under his present health condition as the "show" must go on

    " 진언이 지켜! 네가 지켜! 해강아!"

    The emphasis in this sentence is "진언이", the speaker who said this sentence have to be a parent whether it is may be MH or also could be SH as the speaker is referring JE as a young child/boy...open up the floor for questions who may be the speaker

    When talking to, or about children, it is customary to attach the diminutive suffix "이" (Yi,兒) to the given name e.g.  Jin Eon (진언 - given name) + Yi (이) = Jin Eon Yi.....ending in a consonant which is in this case "n" ()

    Thus the speaker in reference is referring to JE as "진언이" as he is a young boy....little Jin Eon

    If the child name ends with a vowel e.g. ui ( ), then the name remain the same as the given name without adding the diminutive suffix

    "What is makjang"

    There is 2 meaning to the word makjang (막장)

    One is a combination of soybean paste (doenjang done in a short term process) & red pepper paste (gochujang) that is eaten with traditional Korean meat wrap (ssam) or ingredient to be added in stew or soup

    makjang1.jpg?w=640

    The popular culture terms for Makjang depicts a drama genre....that represent a script, plot or story line of having reaches to the extreme...absurb & sometimes outrageous to the norm of reality of life (FAQ is there a likelihood that this can happened in an average person's life).....conveniently inserted story lines which deals with such illogical & twisted manner, in the exact purpose to just to arouse or hook viewers (to be continue  tomorrow or next week)......close cousin to this genre...I suppose....will be the american daytime soaps 

    Makjang genre favourite mechanics....birth secrets, potential incest, adultery, revenge, terminal illnesses, rape, murder & suicide, it is not the mere appearance of this mechanics that make the makjang genre but how they are portrayed & managed that sometimes deviates from what is consider acceptable behaviour

    Take a scene from a classic makjang drama "Temptation of a Wife"

    Extramarital affairs doesn't automatically qualify to deem the drama a makajng but when the story line is line up as...husband had an affair with his wife's friend, tries to force his own wife to have an abortion despite her refusal to do so & then eventually watches his own wife to drown in a boating accident that he had orchestrated...that is a "makjang"
