'Department Head Kim' star Joo Sang-wook made a deal offer to So Ji-sub.
In the ninth episode of SBS's Friday-Saturday drama 'Department Head Kim', which aired on the 24th, scenes depicting Department Head Kim (played by So Ji-sub) meeting again with Kang-chan (played by Joo Sang-wook) were shown.

Kang-chan hatched a plot and vowed to handle Department Head Kim himself. He sneered at Department Head Kim, saying, "I didn't know you were such an important figure. I regret that our previous treatment of you was neglectful." Department Head Kim retorted, "You promised to turn yourself in."
Department Head Kim then said, "So it's you, a rat clinging to North Korea," and Kang-chan provoked him back, saying, "The rat is you. A rat who betrayed the motherland."
Kang-chan then pointed a gun at Department Head Kim, saying, "Didn't you say you'd eliminate me for your daughter's sake? I will also eliminate you for my daughter's sake."
However, the situation turned around as Department Head Kim overwhelmed North Korean agents. At the same time, Han-soo (played by Choi Dae-hoon) and Jin-cheol (played by Yoon Kyung-ho) appeared to help Department Head Kim.
After subduing Kang-chan, Department Head Kim pointed his pistol at him and asked, "Where did you take Li Ying-ling?" Kang-chan shamelessly retorted, "Just shoot. If you want to make children without a father, go ahead." He then proposed a deal: "Let's make a deal. I know why you need to find Li Ying-ling. If you spare me, I'll help you find her."
