Pride and Prejudice
Episode 1
Looks good.
- Have some. - No thanks.
No thanks.
Hold on. Here.
You haven't forgotten me.
How could I forget you?
Looks like you're doing well.
Oh, I'm doing very well.
I wasn't sure if it was true.
I almost fainted when I saw the pictures of the incoming trainees.
What were you doing there?
So what?
So I got you a present.
Have some. Fruit is good for breakfast.
Fruit.
You're not supposed to give fruits. You're supposed to give chestnuts.
Same difference.
But you lost some weight.
I don't think we were close enough for you to know that.
But I checked enough to know it.
But you looked fine back then. You must have been through a lot.
Is that sexual harassment?
Hello.
Yes, hello.
You haven't changed in the five years since I last saw you.
What a relief. You're a lowlife as always.
Do you want to do it or not?
- We can go-- - What?
If you speak to me informally, they'll find out about our past.
Did we have a past?
So will you or not?
Hello.
You can let her in.
She's a new trainee prosecutor. Apparently, her name is Han Yeol Moo.
I just met her today too.
Have a nice day.
So cold.
You became a prosecutor because of me, right?
Yeah.
- Really? - Yeah.
You know that trainees do this work voluntarily, right?
I knew you were working here so I made it my target and decided to come.
But why?
To get revenge.
Why? I didn't do anything wrong.
Think carefully. You did.
I said I didn't.
Okay, let's say I did something wrong. So what?
You came to do this wretched work just to get revenge?
For some people, studying is the easiest thing for them.
Even I studied to get everything right.
Youth? I can repeat that a hundred times,
Truth is, you're the one who did wrong.
You gave no warning.
Let's stop.
Stop what?
We're just starting.
[Prosecutor Koo Dong Chi] [Prosecutor Han Yeol Moo]
You spoke informally.
So you want us to act as if we don't know each other?
Cool.
Are you sure you won't get sick?
You're an apprentice. I'm the master.
I'll be instructing you all day and addressing you with honorifics.
Is that okay?
That's fine. I can use honorifics for days.
I look forward to working with you.
Mr. Prosecutor.
[Prosecutor Koo Dong Chi] [Prosecutor Han Yeol Moo]
[Prosecutor Moon Hee Man]
What on earth is this?
Why did they bother making this list?
What good does it do for public welfare?
You know they make a new one each time personnel changes.
But if you look at it, it seems like I'm a regular mister.
Look at this. These are all my colleagues.
They're all department heads, right?
Well so are you.
That's what I mean.
Since my name is written like this, it looks like I'm just a team member.
If you just look at this, it's like I have no special distinction.
No, not at all.
Why don't you spread the word?
What?
That I've arrived at the District Prosecutor's Office.
I wasn't passed up for a promotion. I volunteered to be here.
The last evicted representative was a great concern.
The president made a big effort to get me this position.
Of course. I know very well.
Spread the word. You're good at things like that.
I'm the junior prosecutor Han Yeol Moo.
I guess you don't know I'm the department head.
I apologize.
This is Prosecutor Moon Hee Man.
He's a great--
They're all in the conference room.
New here?
- Ah yes, I'm a trainee-- - Do you have a boyfriend?
What? What do you mean boyfriend? I don't have one.
Are you pregnant?
Never mind if you aren't.
I hate female prosecutors who skip work
using their boyfriends or pregnancy as an excuse.
But you're a trainee so it wouldn't matter.
Isn't he a jerk?
All of them are twisted in some way.
I really don't like prosecutors.
I don't like prosecutors either.
I especially don't like female prosecutors.
I'm Prosecutor Joo Gwang Mi.
Fighting.
Prosecutor Han.
You know our team...
It's a bit lacking.
What do you mean? All these great prosecutors here--
I can assess them just by looking at them.
Right?
We have one top prosecutor.
We have one on his second year.
And just one apprentice.
It's normal for a prosecutor to have one detective and one apprentice.
It's not even that.
But there's nothing to worry about.
I'm an ace.
If the head is an ace, the rest of the team will become aces.
It's only a matter of time.
Okay.
This is the prosecution team.
We are why the public welfare sector has been created.
They keep talking about forensics and scientific processes.
It's not that important.
Causing problems to the ordinary man. Now that's a science.
On that note, what's the most important thing for us?
Sorry? Oh yes.
Imposing crime on an innocent citizen--
Performance!
That's right. It's performance.
First is performance. Second is performance. It always comes down to performance.
Act like the competent prosecutors you were trained to be.
So that we can proudly advertise our services.
Take on a good case and perform well. If not, what's the point, just send it away.
Otherwise, you lose your chance. That's right.
So.
Starting now, our team...
we can do whatever we want.
Whether you take command or fall to the back, do what you feel like.
Just make sure the results are good.
However.
If you put my head on the chopping block
you all die first. Heed my warning.
Understand?
- Yes. - Yes.
I'll work hard.
The apprentice has a good attitude.
Prosecutor Koo. You're very lucky, aren't you?
Yes.
Do you like living like that?
What do you mean?
Sucking up to the department head as soon as you become prosecutor.
I heard you have to foster good relations if you want to be successful.
You want to be successful?
I just came in. I have to gain power by getting access to influence.
You must be crazy.
If I'm crazy, then everyone here must be too.
Honestly, that's the way it is.
When you become a judge, you gain honor.
When you become a prosecutor, you gain power.
When you become a lawyer, you gain money.
That's why I sacrificed my youth and studied to death.
Let's just get some work done, okay?
We're not playing.
Hey Kang Soo, give our trainee some work to do.
And take care of this.
I went to law school.
I came here after testing to qualify as a prosecutor.
So I'm a real prosecutor. I can take on this case.
You don't have to do it, okay?
But I'm a prosecutor.
I already told everything to the police.
The prosecution just wants to confirm what you told the police.
The police just does a basic investigation to find the culprit.
The prosecution looks into whether you really committed a crime against the law.
Even if you told everything to the detective, it's the prosecutor's job to confirm the details.
I didn't do it.
I'll confirm right now whether or not you really did it.
Mr. Kwon Dae Young, the past October 15 at 10 a.m.
at an intersection in Bukdonggu...
It wasn't me. Please believe me.
I was at the stationery store in the morning.
I sold a hula hoop to a customer that morning.
We still haven't been able to find that customer.
My mother's looking for him.
But...
I have a mole.
Mole?
I have a big mole on my inner thigh.
Did they see it?
It's possible they didn't.
Because she was too shocked.
I have one.
I hear you're a prosecutor too, lady. Prosecutors need evidence.
You shouldn't do this.
Just take a look at this!
I've confirmed it.
Be honest.
You saw it, right?
Even though you looked away, you saw my mole, right?
Did the woman say the culprit had a mole?
No.
See, I told you it wasn't me.
Yes, I understand.
It's Mr. Kwon Dae Young's mother.
She found the customer.
She even has the receipt for the hula hoop.
They say they're downstairs.
Prosecutor Han. Go get them.
Sure.
What did you say?
- Excuse me! - Mom!
Give me this case.
Why should I?
I think he's the criminal. When I passed by him, I got a feeling.
You think he's the criminal?
You get a feeling?
Go play.
If you keep doing this, I'll ask the head to give me a new instructor.
If you ask to be switched, you think he'll let you?
He'll just send you right back.
I don't care.
I have to learn this job quickly no matter what.
So don't play dirty and abuse your power.
Give me the case.
The incident occurred between 10:15 and 10:25 a.m.
Find a person who went from here to there.
Sure. The distance seems to be about 200 meters.
There's a stationery store between these points.
If someone's crossed this trajectory in the time the incident occurred
they probably passed the stationery store so we have potential new witnesses.
Investigator Kang Soo.
Yes, speaking.
Yes.
Yes, I sent it over.
Sure, I'll let you know.
What are we doing right now?
We're investigating the incident.
The incident occurred at exactly 10:23 a.m.
17 seconds around that area.
The victim took a picture when it happened.
Even though she only got his thighs, and the picture can't be used as evidence
we can be sure about the time.
According to our victim, our mystery man ran away down this side street.
When he comes out the door, he gets to this alley.
What's in this alley?
The back door of the stationery store.
The victim enters the stationery store.
She sees Kwon Dae Young wearing the same shirt as the mystery man.
That's why she reported him.
Kwon Dae Young was arrested on circumstantial evidence.
But we just got the receipt from the stationery store.
The timestamp on the receipt is 10:23 with 47 seconds in.
Then what do we have to check?
So...
Could he have done all that in 30 seconds?
That's right.
So runs away down the street, turns the corner
takes off his helmet, wears his pants.
He swipes the customer's card. Would that all be possible in 30 seconds?
If that's possible, that customer's receipt can't be used as evidence.
If not, Kwon Dae Young has an alibi, and we can't prosecute him.
That's why I'm making you run.
All I have to do is run once. A guy running would be more accurate.
Of course.
Why do you think I asked you to run?
Because I'm the instructor, and the apprentice has to do as she's told.
It's illegal to break into property like that!
We... got the owner's permission.
How did you become so stiff?
In the past...
I used to date her.
She even confessed her feelings to me.
Are you going to cry?
Why are you being so melodramatic?
Do you still regret confessing to me?
Isn't that a security camera?
It's not connected.
It isn't possible.
To do everything in 30 seconds, he has to run 100 meters in at least 10 seconds.
But he's no Usain Bolt.
Hey Prosecutor.
Stop eating and try to solve this.
If my instructor can't solve it, how can I?
Then at least work hard.
You told me I have to do as I'm told. Do I have any other choice?
You think this case is a joke, right?
The past six months, 37 cases have been reported.
Our victim was pregnant when she fell from the shock.
She even had a miscarriage.
He's not just a random flasher.
He's a criminal who preys on the weak.
Are you aware of that?
The witness contacted us.
Thank you.
- Goodbye Teacher. - Sure. Bye.
Goodbye.
I'm not sure if there was something strange
about the owner of the stationery store.
Did you see him run to the store breathing heavily or sweating?
I'm not really sure.
But why did you buy a hula hoop? You're a science teacher.
I came to give it to my students as a present from their teacher.
But you must have been in a rush. You left class to purchase it.
Ah, well. Yes.
- Have you found other witnesses? - Yes. There's one more.
Who is it?
A child. We're thinking of skipping her since interrogating her would make her uncomfortable.
Can you explain what route you took that day?
Oh yes.
It's okay.
I must have surprised you.
I'm sorry.
Were you playing with your dolls?
I didn't steal it.
I know. You were looking for your headband.
This is yours, right?
It's pretty.
I have something to ask you.
When did you lose your headband?
Last time.
Last time? When you left school early?
The doll is already wearing a dress. Why did you make it wear pants?
Because she might be cold?
Because she might be scared?
Why is she scared?
He keeps... He keeps...
Did you not hear anything strange back here?
No, I didn't.
Prosecutor Han.
Ho Jung!
She's a student in my class.
Ho Jung.
Yes I understand.
I'll be right in.
Put up the window. The kid will get cold.
They arrested Kwon Dae Young so wrap this up.
We're going to take the kid to her grandmother. Just to let you know.
Sure.
You should go with us.
I think her grandmother will be surprised if only we go over with her.
Yes, let's do that.
Let's go.
After that, it happened several more times?
Yes.
He must have done it by claiming
he was checking whether or not she stole something.
Kwon Dae Young?
Yes.
Then who was the flasher?
Ho Jung.
Ho Jung...
Please have some of this.
Have you seen Ho Jung?
Has she gone to the hill?
Ho Jung!
Have you seen Ho Jung leave?
Ho Jung!
Oh Ho Jung. Ho Jung...
Oh my. Ho Jung!
Yes.
What do I do? Oh my Ho Jung.
They found Kwon over there.
Oh my Ho Jung.
Mr. Koo! Wait for me!
They arrested Kwon Dae Young. Let's go.
Just like that?
They found him when he was coming down from the hill.
Then Kwon Dae Young did that to Ho Jung.
Ho Jung!
- Ho Jung! - Ho Jung!
Ho Jung!
I told you, I'm not a pervert.
I told you I was at the stationery store. Why won't you believe me?
Do you believe this or not?
At the time of the incident, you were with a six-year-old child.
Where's Ho Jung?
If she's safe, we'll treat this as a less severe offense.
Tell me where she is.
Kwon Dae Young.
Listen carefully.
This is the hill, and this is Ho Jung's place.
We found you forty minutes in the hills after Ho Jung disappeared.
You knew Ho Jung was a witness for your crime.
So you kidnapped her to keep her from talking.
Am I wrong?
I don't understand what you're saying anymore.
Where's my mom?
Call my mom.
I want to speak to you and Prosecutor Han.
Yes, I understand.
Let's go Prosecutor Han.
It's not him.
Right. I don't think it's him.
That Lee Ho Jung.
Are you sure she wasn't lying because you caught her trying to steal?
Never.
She acted like the victim of sexual assault.
Why would she have gone to the stationery store?
That's where it must have happened.
Right? Wouldn't it be expected for her to avoid the location?
She must have known no one was there.
She came to find the hairband she lost.
But why would she come looking for it today?
You said it happened several times after that.
Did Ho Jung say that Kwon Dae Young did it?
Well...
She said it happened at the stationery store.
It's the teacher.
What?
If Kwon Dae Young was out wearing his mask
the only person who could have been at the stationery store was the teacher.
Ho Jung!
She's in my class.
Then...
Then it happened more times at the school?
Where is that teacher?
- Ho Jung! - Oh, it scared me.
Oh okay. Go over there.
Geez.
Yes, this is Lee Jang Won.
Ho Jung!
- Yes. - Ho Jung!
Yes, I understand.
- Ho Jung! - Ho Jung!
Ho Jung!
Why are you doing this?
Kang Moo Sung. You are under arrest for the kidnapping of Lee Ho Jung.
You have the right to remain silent.
A lawyer will be appointed to you if you can't afford one.
What you say from now on can be used against you in the court of law.
Why are you doing this?
If Kang Moo Jung is the kidnapper, she must be near her home.
The grandmother was only gone for a bit so she couldn't be far, right?
Yes.
It's cold outside. If you don't find her quickly, it'll be dangerous.
Let's do this properly.
- Yes, I understand. - Yes.
Did you find something?
Make a copy of this and send it around.
Yes.
Now, now.
You have past misdemeanors.
It's a misunderstanding.
You were caught with another female student in a previous school
which is why you transferred.
Prosecutors are kicked out after an incident like this.
I guess it's not the same for teachers.
They say besides the principal, other teachers aren't aware of this.
How many others have you molested besides Ho Jung?
Are you pleading the fifth?
You won't believe me anyway.
I have nothing to say to that outrageous accusation.
It's not about accusations. It's about your whereabouts.
You're the only person who had the opportunity to kidnap Ho Jung.
You're smart. You're staying very composed.
So let's say that my whereabouts incriminate me today.
But I have an alibi for the day of the incident.
The owner of the stationery store.
During the time of my supposed crime, you do know I was with him, right?
You already have the receipt.
I have evidence.
I have the receipt for the hula hoop.
Find that teacher!
Ask that teacher!
Mom.
Tell me. What do you think happened?
When Kwon Dae Young came through the back door...
Ho Jung!
Thank you.
Since they both got caught, they became each other's alibis.
- They cover each other's tracks. - Yes.
We have to do something about that.
Make them turn against each other.
Isn't that right?
Why haven't you caught on yet?
You think the prosecutors are trying to catch you?
We're trying to catch the teacher. Why?
Because a kid might die!
Why can't you help us out?
You can save the child and catch the teacher.
You taking your pants off on the street. Of course we can let that go.
That's your problem.
What should I do?
Just tell me.
You weren't at the stationery store.
That's when the teacher did this and that to Ho Jung.
Well...
Are you not going to give me food?
Come inside.
Go ahead.
Kwon Dae Young and Kang Moo Sung both claim they were at the store together.
If that holds, then Kang Moo Sung didn't assault a minor
and Kwon Dae Young wasn't the masked man.
They're covering for each other.
This...
This is all or nothing, isn't it?
We have to crack Kwon Dae Young to crack Kang Moo Sung.
Do you think we can discredit the receipt as evidence?
No.
No?
Then why did you call both of them over and cause all this uproar?
Huh?
What if neither of them are the criminals?
What if neither are?
What do you think? We're all screwed!
It means that Lee Ho Jung was lying.
What if she was kidnapped by someone else?
Then we're really screwed.
You're not focusing on finding the child.
You arrest innocent people who have evidence.
This is going nowhere so let them go.
This will turn the prosecution upside down. This case will kill us.
We'll let them both go.
What?
That's right. Let's avoid being both screwed and really screwed.
Let's hand it back to the police to figure out.
Since the apprentice started it, the instructor should wrap it up.
Let both Kwon Dae Young and Kang Moo Sung go.
Yes, I understand.
What about Ho Jung?
Let's leave it to fate.
This is wrong.
Evidence is a powerful thing.
We'll meet again when we find Ho Jung.
It doesn't matter.
Why not? We can have the victim testify.
What do you mean by testify?
Do you think she'll talk?
You said Kwon Dae Young did it when you were alone with her.
- That's not-- - If you're not sure, keep calm.
You have no instinct.
Let's say Teacher Kang was with Ho Jung.
Ho Jung has nothing to worry about.
Why?
She likes Teacher Kang.
Okay?
There are kids like that.
Kids who like adults who treat them well. Am I right?
She likes you that much? You're very lucky.
That's right. That's why she ran away.
Use some common sense, will you?
In that short time, how would he kidnap a child? She's not even a dog.
Send him away.
Taxi!
Go ahead.
Please get him home safely.
Did you like it earlier?
Did you... like it earlier?
Where are you going?
That jerk is the masked man. It's him.
Are you okay?
He asked me if I liked it.
'Did you like it earlier?'
That's what he said!
That's why it has to be Kang Moo Sung.
That jerk kidnapped Ho Jung.
Are you okay?
We're shadowing him right now.
The taxi driver is a detective.
But...
You both don't have experience
so we didn't tell you in case you gave it away.
We needed someone to think he was guilty.
Or he wouldn't have fallen for this as easily.
Do you think he'll go to Ho Jung right away?
He will.
Jerks like that don't like to lose their prized possessions.
He knows his prey won't go far.
You're wrong!
Ho Jung despises him.
Of course.
I'm saying he'll believe she stayed put, just as he told her to.
If she'd been listening, she'd have done it. But would she do that?
He just turned towards the house.
Move the detectives.
Yes, I'll tell them to start moving.
What's Kwon Dae Young doing?
He's just going home.
It's not Kwon Dae Young.
I know he's the masked flasher.
Kwon Dae Young's out.
Focus on Kang Moo Sung.
What is that?
Did we just screw up?
Hold on.
That garbage can.
Ho Jung's in there.
Ho Jung!
What if Ho Jung's not in the garbage bin?
Ho Jung's not in there? We're still following Kang Moo Sung.
What happened?
Yes.
The garbage was picked up thirty minutes ago.
It's on its way to the landfill.
See if Lee Ho Jung was picked up.
Yes, I understand.
Help me!
They can't contact the driver right now.
He left his cell phone at home.
What are they doing right now?
Five hours have already passed.
Check up on the garbage truck's route.
Tell them to check all the security cameras that it's passed.
Yes.
Bring Kwon Dae Young back for questioning.
Yes.
Help me!
Grandma!
Grandma.
Is the child safe?
Okay, that's good.
Finish things up there and report back.
Did everyone hear that?
Yes.
You've done a great thing.
What else could I have done?
I checked the back while the truck was unloading, and I saw the girl.
I went to go get her, but the trash fell on top of us.
It was dangerous to go in after her.
It's fine.
How can you not risk your life when a child's in danger?
That's brave of you.
Goodbye.
Kwon Dae Young and Kang Moo Sung have arrived.
Now.
Let's wrap this up.
Yes.
Kwon Dae Young had to have been able to do everything in thirty seconds.
If not, then the minor assault never happened.
Kang Moo Sung won't be incriminated.
We'll lose Ho Jung's chances of having a safe childhood.
He'll say Ho Jung fell into the garbage bin accidentally.
Found it.
You weren't wearing them.
If you weren't wearing your pants, it would've been possible to be standing behind the counter.
You cannot use the receipt as evidence that you were at the store.
I said I have a mole.
This is the definitive evidence.
That's not my thigh.
We know. It's my thigh.
This is what your chair looks like.
If you sit too long, it leaves a mark like this.
This is the picture the victim took.
This is proof that it's your thigh.
This is proof that both thighs have the same mark made by this chair.
We've got it. Okay?
What's the big deal?
You like it.
Tell me. Tell me. You like it.
Kwon Dae Young. Stay calm.
I asked, and honestly...
She liked it?
She said it was small.
- Send him away. - Yes.
Excuse me.
You just came.
Oh my. Congratulations.
I hear they found Lee Ho Jung.
We had to do quite a bit of work.
The receipt doesn't hold up as an alibi anymore.
Apparently Kwon Dae Young was out of the store during that time. That's right.
So Lee Ho Jung...
She's going to give a testimony.
She's been rescued from the landfill.
She's resting up right now.
You took care of her?
Did you seduce her?
Of course not, you punk.
Did you think Lee Ho Jung would like a sicko like you?
Just take him out.
Where are you going? I'll give you a ride.
It's fine.
Goodbye.
Hey Han Yeol Moo.
Good to see you again.
Same here.
We finally meet again.
You shook it on purpose, didn't you?
You need to shake beer.
How did you meet her?
A car accident.
Please drive away.
It was like an explosion.
You know what I mean?
I know.
You know?
And so?

Why were you late?
Let's go to the hotel.
Prosecutor, I can give you something good.
Shut up you punk.
How dare you curse at me!
If you don't all want to die, make good judgments.
I leave my two hands at home.
Why don't you give me a break?
Should have done this sooner.
If not, give her the phone.
We lost signal.
What?
