EPISODE 14

Ms. Jung Geum-ja.

Yes?

While working on

Ha Chan-h*'s divorce case,

is it true that you and Mr. Yoon were

involved in an inappropriate relationship?

What exactly do you mean by

an inappropriate relationship?

COMMISSIONER KIM JUNG-SU,

PARK DAE-h*, LEE SANG-h*

I'm asking if you were close enough

to share private information.

Yes.

That's right.

COMMISSIONER g*ng MAN-SEOK

Ms. Jung approached you imposing

as Kim Hee-sun, an old friend from school.

Is that also true?

Hey, what's up?

Hee-jae.

Today, I met the investigators

from the Korean Bar Association.

I told them

that Ms. Jung lied to you

and approached you as Kim Hee-sun.

I also told them that you guys dated

and that I think that's when

she stole information from you.

Hey.

-Gi-hyeok.

-Hee-jae.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity

for me.

Ha Chan-h*'s case is crucial to me.

You know my position in the firm.

You know that better than anyone.

I

I also want to make partner.

I want to have my own team,

be in charge of a case,

make arguments in court,

and do everything on my own.

But

But in order to do that

You and Ms. Jung need to be gone.

That's how

That's how I can seize this opportunity.

Once you're in my position

Actually, never mind.

That will never happen.

But if you were ever to be in my position,

you'd understand.

I know

I know your dad got injured.

I really can't believe

I'm being such a horrible friend.

I don't want to be like this.

Gi-hyeok.

Why don't you just apologize?

Just say you're sorry

as my colleague and friend.

Do you feel too sorry

to apologize?

I'm sorry, Hee-jae.

Thank you for telling me

before things got out of hand.

That has

nothing to do

with this disciplinary hearing.

Why did Ms. Jung

willfully approach you

by telling such lies?

Wasn't it so that

she could illegally

obtain information on Ha Chan-h*?

No, sir.

It's true that I felt

a sexual attraction to Mr. Yoon.

I didn't think he'd see me

if I told him who I really was.

It was my way of getting to know him.

That's ridiculous.

He was the opposing lawyer.

No one can blame us for falling in love

even if that person k*lled your family.

Have you not read a romance novel

or watched a romantic movie before?

So you're saying

that you two were in love?

Yes.

Yes.

-We were.

-We were.

Then do you admit

that you both shared information?

-No.

-No.

-We never did.

-We never did.

Ms. Jung.

Then how did you come across

Ha Chan-h*'s personal information?

It acted as conclusive evidence

for the divorce suit.

I'm

just

extremely competent.

That's how good she is.

She sometimes does things

that other lawyers can't.

She obviously fooled you

to get that information.

Do you have evidence?

It's obvious judging by the circumstances.

Then you can go ahead and think that

based on the circumstantial evidence.

I never

gave her

my client's information.

Ms. Jung.

As a lawyer, I'm obligated to keep

my client's information confidential.

So I can't tell you everything.

But one thing is for sure.

Mr. Yoon and I never once

shared any information.

How did they find out about Kim Hee-sun?

We all have our reasons for doing things.

What an amazing friendship you have.

I want to know what you said.

I bet they asked the same stuff.

Is that really important?

What do you think the result will be?

If there are no variables,

it'll get rejected.

There's one variable, though.

Song Pil-jung.

This isn't merely about

two lawyers dating each other.

It's about trust,

which is the most fundamental thing

that a lawyer needs to keep.

Then do you want this to end quietly?

If the reporters find out,

it'll harm your firm's reputation--

He's willing to risk that

and wants you to make a proper judgment.

Mr. Song cares about

the overall legal field.

Okay, I understand what you mean.

He thinks the decision

you're going to make

will act as a great example

regarding the work ethics of lawyers.

Congratulations, Mr. Ha Jun-h*.

You're now the CEO of Issume.

This is all thanks to you.

Don't mention it.

This was possible

because you have what it takes.

I guess other people disagree.

Why would you say that

when we're gathered here to celebrate?

The stock price is plummeting.

It shows that people don't trust

the new CEO of Issume.

The company will disappear at this rate.

The stock price will recover with time.

Issume has gone through a lot,

but I know it'll endure it.

That's how sturdy Issume is.

I guess I didn't know much about Issume

seeing that I was so worried.

Hye-won!

Do you even know

what you're going to have to deal with?

You should help him out.

Don't be so mean to him

like you were with Chan-h*.

-Dad.

-Do it for Issume.

We're going through hard times,

so we need to overcome it together.

That's what you call family.

"Family"?

Don't worry too much, sir.

Pil-jung.

When did we

first meet?

I can't even remember.

Sir.

Well

What do you think will happen

with Supreme Court Justice Yoon?

He worked as a judge for over 30 years.

It'll be humiliating for him

to even stand in court as a defendant.

He won't say anything to harm Issume.

If he does,

he'll be denying his own verdict

and his career as a judge.

Okay, hurry up

and take care of what happened

with Chan-h* as well.

Okay, sir.

I want to get some rest. You should go.

Get some rest, sir.

-What are you doing?

-I thought we got fired.

Not yet.

"Not yet"?

Then when?

The disciplinary committee

will need time to make a decision.

I'm suspicious of everything that

Seo Jeong-hwa did on the day she died.

She's still thinking about her?

She told Han Su-jeong

that she's going to leave with Ha Jun-h*.

HA JUN-h*, SEO JEONG-HWA

ELOPEMEN

And the painting.

"The painting"?

Seo Jeong-hwa

was looking after a painting.

She was going to sell that

to prepare money.

Ms. Jung.

How was she going to sell it

when she didn't even own it?

She was only looking after it.

She was looking after a painting.

What did Seo Jeong-hwa always do?

Money laundering.

Yes.

It's highly possible that it was

someone's slush fund.

A slush fund?

And why do you think

she went to Yeonan Pier?

She wouldn't have gone there

to eat sashimi all by herself.

And then White Hotel.

The drug test results.

She took sleeping pills with alcohol.

But neither Ha Chan-h*

nor Seo Jeong-hwa had sleeping pills.

I know she hated drugs,

but she could've secretly brought it

to sedate Ha Chan-h*.

Ha Chan-h* found Seo Jeong-hwa by

tracking the GPS device on her cell phone.

Ha Chan-h* called Seo Jeong-hwa

at 7:20 p.m.

And he entered White Hotel at 8:00 p.m.

She wouldn't have had enough time to get

a doctor's prescription and the pills.

Room service.

Either the person who brought room service

brought the sleeping pills,

or that person

secretly put them in their drinks.

Did you find out who it was?

No, it wasn't a hotel staff.

The person was from another company.

Mr. Na is busy making phone calls.

Okay.

And

the second phone.

Seo Jeong-hwa used that to contact people

other than Ha Chan-h*.

I wonder where that went.

Who owns White Hotel again?

White Corporation.

Mr. Kim, I want you

to look into White Hotel's stocks,

the company history,

and when it was built.

Aren't you going to come

to the meeting soon?

A meeting?

Yes, it's about Ha Chan-h*.

Did Mr. Ga gather the meeting?

-Yes.

-Okay, I got it.

Should I start packing again?

PARK JU-h*

Hey, it's me.

Ha Jun-h*?

The newly appointed CEO of Issume Group?

Didn't you know?

Ms. Jung and Mr. Yoon

already knew about this.

The relationship between Seo Jeong-hwa,

Ha Jun-h*, and Ha Chan-h*.

So she was cheating with Ha Jun-h*?

I mean, CEO Ha?

If the trial lasts too long,

people will start talking.

We already have enough rumors as it is.

It won't be good

for both Issume and our firm.

So please make sure that doesn't happen.

Okay, sir.

You may leave.

Hey, Mr. Ma.

When will the disciplinary committee

come up with a decision?

I did ask them to hurry.

-When is the EP general meeting?

-In 15 days, sir.

Why don't you request Ms. Kim's

dismissal in the meeting as well?

That's not important right now.

Fifteen days?

It'll be too late.

Gather the steering committee now.

Okay, sir. What is the agenda?

The expulsion of Ms. Jung and Mr. Yoon.

Okay, sir.

I'm sure you've all heard,

but I'll be in charge of Ha Chan-h*'s case

from now on.

Mr. Yoon and Ms. Jung

will have to stay out of this case

until the disciplinary committee

tells them their final decision.

Why was the disciplinary hearing held?

Do you know?

Everyone in the firm knows.

Why are you so slow?

First, let's check what's going on.

Please tell me

what you're in charge of doing.

Mr. Kim.

-I was given a task a while ago.

-"A while ago"?

I was told to check White Hotel's history

and the ownership of shares.

"White Hotel"? Why?

-What about you, Ms. Boo?

-I'm looking into ArtSky's clients.

I'm searching for the guy

who delivered room service.

I see.

I want all of you to stop

what you're working on.

We're going to go

with involuntary manslaughter.

Keep it short and safe.

One mistake can turn it into m*rder.

So we're going to admit that he's guilty?

He was caught red-handed

at the crime scene.

You know what that means.

Then what about the work we put in--

We don't have time.

What do you mean

it could turn into m*rder?

I'm saying he had a good enough reason

to m*rder Seo Jeong-hwa.

You know Ha Jun-h*, right?

Ha Chan-h*'s stepbrother.

And Seo Jeong-hwa.

They were in a love triangle.

It's too obvious.

I'm just going to keep doing

what I've been working on.

-Mr. Na, tell me once you're done.

-Okay.

MEETING ROOM

Mr. Yoon.

HANKOOK UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL

Are you okay?

Yes.

I'm sure you're going through a lot.

Sorry I can't do anything to help.

It's okay.

I'm sorry for not being able

to take care of the team.

I'm not here as your teammate.

Do you know how it feels

when you want to help someone out

in any kind of way possible

but you can't?

All you can do is

watch that person from afar,

and so it hurts even more.

I bet you know how it feels.

You also once liked someone from afar.

I feel like this is my only chance

to tell you this.

Ms. Boo.

But I'm still going to help you whenever.

If you need my help,

I'll help you with whatever.

Go ahead and use your smart colleague

as much as you want.

Cheer up.

I came to tell you that.

I'm not going to use you,

but thanks anyway.

I don't want to put others

through this mess.

YOON CHUNG-YEON

You should eat a bit more.

I'm done.

Dad.

I'm your lawyer.

I'll be the one defending you.

Can you

be honest with me?

Hee-jae.

I'm not going to say anything.

I thought so.

You tried to keep your secret

by even sacrificing your life.

So I figured you wouldn't change your mind

just because you managed to survive.

It's all for your sake.

Who?

Me and Hyeok-jae?

Grandpa thinks you're innocent.

He asked me to prove that you're innocent

in court.

I

I should've died.

Then why don't you jump from here?

This time, you'll be able to die.

Why don't you go ahead and jump?

You know those people

who commit suicide

to keep their boss' secret?

They act like some kind of loyal servants.

They think everything will be fine

if they sacrifice themselves.

People who exist for no one else

but their superiors.

They practically volunteer to be a minion.

You're a judge, Dad.

Your job is to make a verdict

after you check

if someone is guilty or not.

So you shouldn't do anything

that goes against your conscience.

That's your job.

Dad.

You were against

the Inheritance Tax Act, weren't you?

You're that kind of judge.

Please let me continue to respect you.

What

do I need to do?

Just reveal the fact

that you're a scapegoat.

Just admit what you did wrong

and get punished for it.

That's the only way

I'll be able to defend you.

I'm not going to let them frame you

for something you didn't even do.

The person who was in charge

of the room service was a guy

named O Chang-u,

but he took the day off today.

It was his last day.

Is it something urgent?

Why did you come all the way here?

It's not something he can stop.

What?

He messed with the wrong person.

What do you mean?

When can I get the forensics report?

Eun-yeong, I heard they were told

to keep things confidential.

It's too late for that.

They told the press

as soon as Ha Chan-h* got arrested.

You think the cops did that?

No way.

They didn't know

he'd get arrested red-handed.

I heard the press got there really fast.

But I wonder how that was possible.

What if they knew that Ha Chan-h*

was going to get arrested red-handed?

What?

What if it was all a set-up?

-What are you saying?

-Isn't that him?

Yes, it is.

Hey, O Chang-u.

Hey, wait. He went that way.

Gosh, he's very fast.

Why did he run? He doesn't even know me.

Well, that proves one thing.

He's hiding something.

Hey, Ji-eun, it's me. Send me

Seo Jeong-hwa's GPS location record.

Forensics got there at 12:40 a.m.

Judging by the cadaveric spasm,

she was k*lled about three to four hours

before the autopsy.

-Let's go.

-Yes, ma'am.

If you look at the next picture

-Hand them out.

-Yes, ma'am.

-Ms. Jung, we're having a meeting--

-I'm aware.

Please take a look.

SEO JEONG-HWA'S TIMELINE

7:30 P.M. SPOKE WITH HA JUN-h*

ON THE PHONE

Seo Jeong-hwa's estimated time of death

is between 8:40 p.m. and 9:40 p.m.

However, the tracker on her phone

was turned on and off at 10:12 p.m.

What about it?

Jeez, let's keep listening.

Please continue, Ms. Jung.

At that time,

neither Seo Jeong-hwa, who died,

nor Ha Chan-h*, who was asleep,

was able to fiddle with her phone.

It's possible that someone else was there.

That also explains

why the second phone vanished.

Ms. Jung.

That hypothesis only works

if we believe Ha Chan-h*, right?

But you see,

if Ha Chan-h* actually k*lled her,

then this hypothesis is useless.

-Mr. Ga.

-That's what the prosecutor will say.

What I'm saying is

And the sleeping pills too.

Ha Chan-h* is a junkie.

Sleeping pills may not even affect him.

Are we

prosecutors?

No, we're not.

The important thing here is

It's the fact that you've been removed

from this case.

SONG & KIM HR TEAM

AS THE RESULT OF THE MEETING

YOU ARE DISMISSED FOR VIOLATION OF DIGNITY

AND DEFAMING THE FIRM

Why did they send this?

"Dismissed"? So they're fired?

-Ms. Jung, did you hear--

-Start packing up.

The disciplinary committee

hasn't even decided, yet they're fired?

So the disciplinary committee's decision

doesn't even matter?

Isn't this so unfair?

I guess the decision was made

by the steering committee.

It's what Mr. Song wants to do.

Still

Let's just wrap up the meeting.

YOU ARE DISMISSED FOR VIOLATION OF DIGNITY

AND DEFAMING THE FIRM

It's me.

Yes, I know. What's up?

You got the notice, right?

What about it?

So we're not just removed

from the Ha Chan-h* Case.

Our limbs have been cut off.

Shall I tell you

what your next move should be?

Stand tall and clear your office.

Be confident.

You're

really leaving?

Thanks for all your help.

I mean

How could you just leave?

This is too sudden.

And I can't believe the firm decided

to do this just because of the rumors.

I guess everyone knows

about the rumors now.

They call it

"The Fall of a Judge and His Family."

That's why Mr. Song deserted me.

And apparently, I leaked information

to Ms. Jung

because of my personal feelings.

No, that's not what I meant.

It's all right.

But only believe half of those rumors.

Half of them is true,

but the other half is not.

Well, can I give you a hand with anything?

Shall I help you pack?

This office

Mr. Ga will use this office, right?

-Yes.

-You should

help him out a lot.

About the Ha Chan-h* Case

Whether it was involuntary manslaughter

or m*rder,

there are many things

that seem suspicious.

I figured you wouldn't notice them.

At the moment,

you just want to stay focused on one goal

while obeying Mr. Song.

-Hee-jae.

-I was like that too,

so I know what it's like. That's all.

You see,

the only thing I can do now

is wrapping this up as soon as possible.

That is my task.

Becoming a partner at Song & Kim

It's very cool.

Your parents will be proud of you.

Everyone around you will be.

Hee-jae.

I guess

we might end up meeting

in the courtroom one day.

If that ever happens,

I won't go easy on you.

We're still friends, right?

Gosh.

I'm sad that

you're actually leaving the firm.

I have to say,

you've definitely grown on me.

Well, do you have another job lined up?

Oh, right.

There will be many law firms

that would want to hire Mr. Yoon.

And as for you, you're a tough lady.

We'll meet again, wherever that may be.

So don't be sad.

You were going to leave

without even saying goodbye?

I'm very sad

that we're letting you go like this.

However,

I had to put the firm before you

even though I care about you.

I hope you understand.

If I get reprimanded by the association,

I'll protest and appeal

to the Ministry of Justice.

They haven't notified me

of their decision,

but I think I know what it'll be.

I'm sure they're busy trying to figure out

exactly what it is that you want.

-Hee-jae--

-My father is recovering pretty quickly.

He'll stand trial after he recovers,

which will be soon.

And I'll be his attorney.

Yes, he'll be able to trust you

and rely on you.

You'll be summoned

to appear in court as a witness.

Get ready for it.

You know how I like to work

better than anybody else does.

I won't disappoint you.

I'll look forward to it.

Dad.

What now?

AP EON is buying Issume's stocks in bulk.

Did you know?

Hye-won, I said I'd try to stop--

The stock price has already plummeted.

Why did you let this happen?

AP EON?

All our subsidiaries are struggling

because we pushed ahead

with the acquisition of Gnosis.

We have no way of stopping AP EON

because money has run dry.

That's impossible.

You still can't see the big picture.

-Dad!

-Call Mr. Song.

Until when

will you blindly trust Song Pil-jung?

He never lets his power slip away

even when a new administration

takes office

or in case of political power shifts.

Do you really not know how he does it?

He only sees

and cares about what he needs.

I'll call him. You should get out.

Dad, you don't have time

to be lounging around like this!

I said, get out!

-Sir! Are you okay?

-Dad.

-Dad!

-Stay with me, please!

Chairman Ha got home from the ICU.

We'll have to see how he recovers.

All right.

What was that about? Good news for us?

Well, it's not bad news.

Great, although I don't know what it is.

Oh, right.

Did you ever share any information

about Supreme Court Justice Yoon

with Ms. Jung?

That was very reckless of you.

-I was just--

-Why did you

try to use Ms. Jung?

-It's personal.

-No, you can't say that.

It's affecting me, as you can see.

So you can't say it's personal.

Why did I have to hear

that ridiculous nonsense from her?

I just

wanted confirmation on Song Pil-jung's,

I mean Mr. Song's intentions.

I also wanted to tell you

that I've only just begun.

This isn't over.

But I'm sure she doesn't know

where that information is from.

You obviously don't know her well at all.

I'm sorry.

What's done is done,

so let's shake it off and forget about it.

AP EON

is now Issume's

second-largest shareholder.

But to outdo Chairman Ha's family,

you'll have to persuade other shareholders

to entrust you with their voting rights.

That's why I have you.

The shareholders trust you

a lot more than Ha Jun-h*.

But Ha Hye-won would've been

a different story.

You think so?

If I step in and reveal myself,

people will think a foreign investor

is acquiring a Korean company.

You'll have to do this for me.

Anyway, congratulations.

Thank you.

I'm with a client.

Do you realize how rude this is?

Why? I know both of you well enough.

-It's been a while, Kevin.

-Yes, hello. You look great.

Bullshit.

I heard you fired Jung Geum-ja

and Yoon Hee-jae.

Were you that anxious?

You couldn't even wait

until the EP general meeting?

I guess you want to get me fired

at that meeting.

It doesn't look nice

to fire a number of people at once.

-Right?

-Min-joo.

I heard Chairman Ha collapsed.

You see, I'm pretty quick too.

Some people are still loyal to me.

If you're done, we can leave.

-Okay.

-No, wait.

Why are you getting up?

I'm going to leave.

Sit back down, Kevin.

Come on, just sit down.

You're wining and dining here,

knowing Chairman Ha collapsed,

which means he's no longer useful to you.

How did you get to where you are now?

Chairman Ha introduced you to my father.

But the mutt is now biting its owner.

-Kim Min-joo.

-That's all you are.

A mutt raised by my family.

You think you've become someone worthy,

but that's not the case.

Once a mutt, always a mutt.

Shut the f*ck up!

That's right.

That's the Song Pil-jung I know.

No wonder my sister

came to hate your guts.

It's too bad you missed.

I would've sued your a*s

if I had been hit.

Anyway, wrap up your conversation.

Just so you know though,

I am going to take a stance this time.

What do you think? Sounds fun, right?

So where were we?

Like I said earlier,

the other shareholders

I didn't expect you

to talk back to Mr. Song like that.

You've toughened up.

I guess someone rubbed off on me.

Are you done being

the rich spoiled kid then?

That rich spoiled kid

never existed in the first place.

You gave me that nickname

on your own accord.

Besides, a rich spoiled kid?

-You're so--

-There was someone else.

Someone other than Ha Chan-h*

was at the scene.

Right, of course.

But who?

The one who took

Seo Jeong-hwa's second phone.

Exactly, but who was it?

It could be the one

who k*lled Seo Jeong-hwa.

You don't know who it is, do you?

Can I get a refill?

You always do that

when you have nothing to say.

Same here.

We may not know who it is,

but we know who's involved.

Here are the shareholders of White Hotel.

Here's the client list.

This is probably ill*gal.

Throwing around sensitive

information like this

will make you suffer the way we just did.

Also, we didn't call you here to work.

It's to grab a final drink--

We can hold off on the drinks.

Let us share the information.

Ms. Jung gave us the order herself.

And I'm the kind of person

who likes to wrap up things neatly.

And I just came by to see you.

SHAREHOLDER LIS

He was the major shareholder,

but he sold most of what he had.

It's why we didn't know.

The owner was different.

SON BONG-U

It seems like I missed a lot of things.

White Hotel is among ArtSky's clients.

WHITE HOTEL

So we found a decent lead.

Someone related to Seo Jeong-hwa.

WHITE HOTEL

Chairman Son Bong-u.

SON BONG-U

LAW OFFICE CHOONG

Why follow me all the way here?

Why carry those for me?

Because you've grown on me?

Or maybe I'm worried you might grow on me.

What are you yapping about?

Don't tell me this place

can collapse at any second.

Let's head inside then.

To celebrate today,

we'll have not soju, not wine,

but surprisingly beer.

That being said, I

need you.

To help with your father's case, right?

That's not the only reason.

This time, you'll be needing me too.

Ha Chan-h*'s case?

Song & Kim will only

represent him for his first trial.

Then, let's go over this once again.

Ha Chan-h* and Ha Jun-h*

are half-brothers.

The prosecution will argue

that Ha Chan-h* m*rder*d Seo Jeong-hwa

after finding out that she had

betrayed him for his brother.

What we must do is argue

that it was in the heat of the moment.

Ha Chan-h* must plead guilty

and show remorse in court too.

VISITATION: PLEASE PRODUCE ID

You want me to plead guilty?

What we must show is that

your actions were accidental

and that you're deeply regretting them.

But I didn't k*ll her.

You don't clearly remember that.

You must've been in an unfit state

for the court to give you

a sentence below ten years.

Where's Ms. Jung?

What about Mr. Yoon?

They were taken off your case

for personal reasons.

What?

Then bring them back.

Who cares if they don't work

for Song & Kim? Bring them back.

I'd rather have them

than a clown like you!

Mr. Ha,

what you need is Song & Kim.

A prolonged trial

will only make it harder on you.

If it's me you can't trust,

put your faith in Song & Kim.

Are you Prosecutor Kwon Yong-un?

Yes.

Both lawyers and prosecutors

surely are busy, aren't they?

A blind date

at this hour?

Lawyers?

Yes, I dated one for a while.

Why? Was that wrong of me?

Please don't tell me that

you haven't had a girlfriend before.

That's not it, is it?

Of course not.

-Coffee?

-Sure.

-Excuse me.

-Coming.

-What can I get you?

-Two cups of coffee, please.

Yeon-ji?

My gosh, Hee-jae?

How have you been these days?

You're only skin and bones.

I guess the breakup was hard on you.

Then you should've called.

I would've gladly dated you again.

From what I remember, I dumped you.

Exactly.

Who dumped whom doesn't matter.

The one who loved more hurts more, right?

The way you look says everything.

-What the hell are you two--

-This is great.

I have something to say

to Prosecutor Kwon here.

Could you excuse us?

Do you two know each other?

He's the one who indicted my father.

Yong-un,

I'm sure you heard about my father.

He's fit enough to appear in court.

Are you sure he doesn't need

treatment for every other past illness?

This is exactly why

I wanted to see you in person.

I knew you wouldn't take this seriously.

I'm representing my father.

I'll come at you with all I have,

so I suggest you do the same.

What are you trying to say?

I'm saying that this case

isn't just linked to Issume.

A string of upper-class members

are probably involved too.

So don't get scared, don't run away,

don't let yourself be bulldozed over,

and dig deep into this case.

You'll understand what I mean in court.

How did you know I was here though?

Everyone at your office

knows about this blind date of yours.

It's your first as a prosecutor.

Gosh.

It's about time you got lonely too.

Guys, the Korean Bar Association

came to an agreement on your case.

Your license will be suspended

for two years.

LAW OFFICE CHOONG

-We'll appeal.

-Okay.

IRON WILL, SINCERE HEAR

-It's similar. Nicely done.

-Right.

-Thank you.

-Vintage again?

Are you aware of more sophisticated styles

that look modern, sleek, and Scandinavian?

But retro is what's been trending.

Yes, it seems that way.

Why? It looks great to me.

I knew you'd understand my taste.

-What--

-So is this Choong

It's nice and cozy.

Congratulations on the opening.

Oh, please. I'm only reopening it

after a short break.

You didn't have to buy any snacks.

Thank you.

Well, they're tasty.

I was somewhat hungry, so thanks.

-I like these.

-Do you want one?

Whether you're opening or reopening

doesn't matter.

Are you taking Ha Chan-h*'s case?

I'd like to join you.

Are you saying you'll leave Song & Kim?

I earned a small fortune

investing in stocks.

I won't ask for a salary,

so let me do what I want to.

Let's dig into his case

without bosses breathing down our necks.

That's him acting with bravado.

Truth be told, he was fired.

He kept questioning

the firm's decisions on the case

which didn't sit well with Mr. Ma.

So will you accept me or not?

If the Ministry of Justice

presents us with the same ruling,

we'll need a trustworthy lawyer

on our side.

Sure. Okay.

Okay? You mean it?

What about me?

Aren't you going to ask about me too?

-So which desk should I use?

-I resigned on my own accord.

-My fellow Koreans.

-After seeing

-what they did to you

-To make Korea

an economically developed country,

I will run for president in

the upcoming 20th presidential election.

-Lee In-yeop!

-Lee In-yeop!

-Lee In-yeop!

-Lee In-yeop!

COURT OF LAW

COURT OF KOREA

DEFENSE COUNSEL, DEFENDAN

Pleading guilty to involuntary

manslaughter won't get you many years.

Let's hope it's accepted.

COURT OF LAW

We will now make a ruling.

The defendant claims

he wasn't in the right state of mind,

but we acknowledge his gross negligence

in the case of Ms. Seo Jeong-hwa's death.

According to sentencing guidelines,

we sentence him to eight years.

That concludes this trial.

I hear that Song & Kim won't appeal.

-That's right.

-Ms. Jung?

Then

we will.

"We"?

Yes, at Law Office Choong.

Will you appoint us to represent you?

Of course.

Let's go.

Good job today.

-What happened?

-What did he say?

Will Ha Chan-h* let us take his case?

Guys?

COURT OF LAW

At Choong, we pick stars for our clients.

Our clients will forever be loyal

out of gratitude.

Is Ha Chan-h* letting you represent him?

Checking the scene could give us

a new insight.

We can go and check

if they really don't have CCTV cameras.

Do you see this or not?

Still, you can't do that here.

ArtSky's paintings and White Hotel

which belonged to Chairman Son.

And Seo Jeong-hwa.

It's possible

that she looked after those paintings.

Using Son Bong-u's slush fund, right?

What if something goes wrong?

Okay, sir. I'll take care of it.

-Are you going to see your father?

-Don't call him that.

I want to have proper closure.
