'High school graduate' Kim Myung-soo, Hogu-seo as an ace... Is Choi Min-soo aiming to start working with Choi Jin-hyuk?

In episode 2 of MBC's Fri-Sat drama 'Numbers: Watchers in the Building Forest', which aired on the 24th, Jang Ho-woo (played by Kim Myung-su), who overcame the prejudice of being a high school graduate and began to be recognized for his ability as an accountant, was portrayed.
Jang Ho-woo, who started drawing a big picture to achieve his real goal after entering Taeil, and Han Seung-jo (played by Choi Jin-hyeok) reached out to Jang Ho-woo, who had the same goal as himself. Interest is peaking as to whether the two will be able to start working together against the top predator Han Je-gyun (played by Choi Min-soo). In particular, in the scene where Han Je-gyun threatens Kang-hyeon in order to receive an appropriate opinion in the people's entertainment audit, he recorded the highest viewership rating of 5% at the moment, raising expectations for his move, which began to reveal his true color.
On this day's broadcast, Jang Ho-woo rejected Han Seung-jo's offer to join his team at once. The appearance of Han Seung-jo, who was embarrassed by the unexpected rejection, was enough to add anticipation to what kind of development the relationship between the two would face in the future.
Ganghyeon (Kim Youngjae)'s team, which was conducting an audit of People's Entertainment, ran into a difficult situation. This is because they did not receive a financial institution inquiry that can verify the size of the company's debt, which is the most important part of the audit. In response, Jang Ho-woo took responsibility and said that he would receive an inquiry from the village credit bank financial institution. Jang Ho-woo, who was on his first life-and-death job, accidentally ran into Jin Yeon-ah (played by Yeon-woo), who was going for inventory inspection in the same direction, and as they rode down to Geumyang together in his car, the two became one step closer. It was a moment of anticipation whether excitement could sprout between them.
Jang Ho-woo, who arrived at the village safe, saw the hall crowded with elderly people, grasped the atmosphere in one shot, and flexibly responded by exercising his wits according to the situation. It captured the hearts of the elderly at once with a surprise event to pay bank fees instead. As a result, the village safe, which had been busy without a break, became quiet, and the employee had no choice but to stamp Jang Ho-woo, who had prepared a complete financial institution inquiry form himself. In this way, Jang Ho-woo succeeded in proving his abilities by returning after solving the village credit's financial institution inquiry at once, which no accountant in Taeil had received.
Jang Ho-woo's performance did not end here. Han Je-kyun's henchman Shim Hyung-woo (played by Lee Seong-yeol) deliberately sent Jang Ho-woo to Kang-hyeon's team to get information, but Jang Ho-woo looked at People's Enter's financial statements and noticed that there was a problem with inventory. He demonstrated his ability once again by recognizing at once that the two unreleased movies and goods held as inventory assets were a trick to cover up losses. Jang Ho-woo accurately conveyed his intention to Kang-hyeon, "In a word, Peoples is on the verge of dying," but he did not reveal the whole truth to Shim Hyeong-woo. This was the part where we could guess the real reason Jang Ho-woo held Shim Hyeong-woo's hand instead of Han Seung-jo's.
Upon learning that People's Entertainment had been offered an M&A by Sang-A Group, Kang-Hyeon was furious that this was all about Han Je-Kyun and Shim Hyung-Woo's big picture. In the end, Kang-hyeon nailed it to Han Je-kyun, saying, "I can't give you this year's audit report." However, Han Je-gyun was not just watching. He pressured Kanghyun with a promotion and salary increase, telling him to stop playing the petty hero, but the result was a failure. When asked why he became an accountant, Kang Hyun recalled Jang Ho-woo's words, "My anger is powerless. Accountant's anger has power. The power to change the wrong things." because. In the end, Kanghyun ended up rejecting People's Entertainment's appreciation, and proudly and proudly took off Taeil's employee ID.
To Jang Ho-woo, whom he met on the way to leave Taeil, Kanghyun said, “I realized that compromising with myself is not wisdom, but self-harm.” The sight of Jang Ho-woo and Han Seung-jo standing side by side while looking at the back of Kang Hyun who left proudly raised expectations about how the two would face the world of Han Je-gyun, which was as solid as a fortress.
