"The Impossible Heir" Episode 3 focused on Han Tae Oh, Kang In Ha, and Na Hye Won officially entering the Kang Oh group. The first scene featured Han Tae Oh being introduced to Chairman Kang Joong Mo as his speech writer for his engagements.
During his one-on-one conversation with the Kang Oh Chairman, Han Tae Oh was attacked for his family background. Kang Joong Mo used Tae Oh's father as his weakness, which prompted him to almost give up his position. However, the chairman was impressed by how he handled the test and was offered the role of his secretary.
Five years later, things were going well with Han Tae Oh since the chairman considered him his right-hand man. Unfortunately, the downside of this was that the Kang family still saw him as a threat and might be a hindrance to their succession.
Meanwhile, Kang Joong Mo was looking forward to launching his dream project, the Royal Road Project, which highlights the establishment of a big city on the "west bank," calling it "a country within a country."
At this point, the trio was gearing for their plan.
While Tae Oh worked for the chairman, Kang In Ha was under Kang Oh Group's IT branch, while Na Hye Won was with the political campaigning team.
While they were having a late-night chit-chat with their plan update, Tae Oh received a clip from a hacker featuring the chairman's second son, Kang Seong Joo, along with Kang Joong Mo's opponent, Jo Soon Dong.

Lo and behold, the chairman received bad news after finding out that Jo Soon Dong won the party's election.

Meanwhile, Han Tae Oh shared with the chairman that Geum Suk's family was behind the Save Africa project. He also revealed that the project was being used to launder money.
His discovery affected the plans for the succession, prompting them to have an emergency meeting.
As the chairman broke the news, Kang Joong Mo replaced his son, Kang Seung Joo, from the team and demoted him to a struggling division of the company.
However, amid the surprising changes in the Kang Oh group, Kang Joong Moo suffered from a heart attack. His wife, who was with him at the time, walked away as her husband grappled for help.
In the last scene, Kang Tae Oh arrived, and the episode ended.
