[Episode 17]
What is it?
Boss, there is trouble.
President Seok got stabbed, and was transferred to a hospital.
I'll be right over. Take good care of him until I get there.
Boss...
Boss.
I'm sorry.
Boss...
I am sorry.
Sang Ho...
Now... I have to see them bleed.
Since this happened...
I can't back down anymore.
Attorney Seo! Attorney Seo!
Attorney Seo! President Seok Joo Il...
[Arrest Warrant] Park Dong Ho...
you're under arrest for the attempted murder of Seok Joo Il.
What did you say?
Unlock this... right now.
- Search! - Yes, sir.
What are you doing?
I found the murder weapon.
Are you still going to deny it?
We found the murder weapon.
Take him away.
Wait a minute...
This is a misunderstanding... Boss!
This is a misunderstanding!
Boss! Boss!
He was arrested for attempted murder?
Park Dong Ho may act like a gangster, but he would never stab anyone.
Seok Joo Il was like a father to Park Dong Ho.
Isn't this odd?
Park Dong Ho...
He seems to have fallen into a trap.
[Attorney Park Arrested for Attempted Murder of President Seok of Ilho Trading]
How did this get twisted?
Did President Seok Joo Il get screwed by Park Dong Ho?
They acted like father and son.
At a critical moment...
he just stabbed him.
There isn't much loyalty among gangsters. Isn't that right?
Gangsters' loyalty is no stronger than a sheet of paper.
They do everything for their own survival.
Attorney Park is scary. I should be careful.
Attorney Park is assisting Seo Jin Woo from the side in this trial.
But now he'll stand trial for attempted murder...
So it's as if they have a broken wing now.
Then this is good news for our trial.
At the next session, I will pull off Seo Jin Woo's wing, too.
How is the Boss doing?
He's still in a coma.
What about the guys? Are they doing a good job of protecting him?
All of his men have left.
There are barely 10 guys left.
Sang Ho...
I believe that the Boss got screwed by Nam Il Ho.
I knew as soon as I saw Detective Bae
there to arrest me, since he's Nam Il Ho's dog.
It looks like the Big Boss tried to protect you.
You have to take care of him. Do you understand?
By the way...
What about your lawyer?
Don't worry about it. Take care of the Boss first.
A new commissioner just started at the National Tax Service
so there is a plan for a large-scale tax audit of the top 10 corporations.
They make a fuss every time.
I plan to bring up another issue to shift the focus and keep them occupied, sir.
Thanks to you, we can prepare ahead of time.
You may take your leave now.
Report.
Seok Joo Il was hurt, so his men protested.
- And? - They're just hoodlums.
I got them some money
and their loyalty started to dissolve.
There won't be any trouble in the future?
Of course not, Chairman.
I also hid the one who knifed him.
Gyu Man doesn't seem to know that I made it happen?
- That's right. - Who is the prosecutor in charge?
He is my junior. You don't need to worry.
Jin Woo...
Please defend my Boss.
He was framed.
You know it too.
Dong Ho didn't stab the Big Boss.
Whatever happened between the two...
it's not for me to get involved.
Jin Woo, please!
You're the only one.
You know what Attorney Park did to my father...
How can you still say that?
Jin Woo...
You have no shame. Did Park Dong Ho ask you?
Did he say that he'd like Attorney Seo to defend him?
No, I didn't come here because he asked me to.
I came here on my own!
Excuse me! Attorney Seo would never defend him.
You should leave now.
Jin Woo, you're the only attorney who can clear my Boss's name.
You should leave now.
You know that it's difficult.
Is it going well running errands for Nam Il Ho?
You're right. We're both minions.
Still, I got a president title...
and you became the most expensive lawyer in Korea.
How is your father's health?
Since Chairman Nam Il Ho has paid a lot of attention to him
his health is improving.
What about the matter I asked for?
As you ordered, I cleaned it up nicely.
You became the hands of the Chairman with the matter of President Ha...
If you can wrap this up nicely too...
your life, which has been full of obstacles
will be clear sailing from here on out.
I will offer my life to be loyal to the Chairman and you, Attorney Hong.
Seok Gyu!
Yeo Gyeong.
This case won't be the end for Gyu Man.
What do you mean by that?
I believe Gyu Man has committed other crimes...
By any chance, are you referring to the Oh Jung Ah case from five years ago?
I can't say much yet.
First, I'd like to hear more from Gyu Man.
[Rape Murder Case (Seochon College Student) Trial Transcript]
I was going to close my eyes for the drug case.
But...
I don't think I can do that with the murder case.
What are you talking about?
The criminal in this case is Gyu Man.
I know that.
Yeo Gyeong!
Dad, stop taking Gyu Man's side!
It's not protecting Gyu Man! Right now, I could--
Gyu Man is heir to Ilho Group.
You can't protect your brother to be more successful?
You're going to dig up his crimes?
- Dad... - I don't want to look at you!
Get out of here!
It's disappointing.
Once someone falls out of Father's favor, it's hard to regain it.
I was planning to get some favors from my prosecutor sister, but now I can't.
Very good.
Hey.
By the way...
Are you keeping an eye on Song Ha Young?
She keeps opening her mouth, that's why I keep having these annoying issues!
Okay, I got it. I'll put another tail on her.
Wow, 2113!
It suits you well.
Did you just realize I look good in anything, Gyu Man?
You guys should've resolved things by talking.
Why did you stab someone who's like a father to you?
I didn't know you were that kind of man.
Are you saying this because you really don't know?
Or are you pretending that you don't know?
Don't you know that your father planned the whole thing?
You really don't know your father, do you?
That's the kind of human being your father is.
He throws away anyone who has he has finished using.
I'm sure it's the same for you as his son.
Tell your father...
that my arrow will soon pierce his back.
Hey, just worry about yourself.
You'll regret betraying us while you rot away in here.
Oh? It will be you sitting in here in this chair, Gyu Man.
Where does this kind of confidence come from?
I am harvesting the seeds you sowed, one by one.
Listen carefully. This is what your future holds.
Jin Woo... will kill you.
You bastard!
I'm going to kill him first, you bastard!
How do I get in there?
Seriously, that...
Attorney Hong, it's me.
Who is the prosecutor in charge of Park Dong Ho's trial?
Set up a time right now!
He doesn't get it!
After checking the authenticity of the submitted video
it will be admitted as evidence.
Based on what we found, in addition to Miss Song Ha Young
there seem to be quite a few women who were taken advantage of by Nam Gyu Man.
If any women from the video are willing to testify
I will take that into consideration as an important factor.
Attorney Lee In Ah, please check with Song Ha Young right now
and find out who else can testify for us.
President Nam Gyu Man, are you in the office right now?
By any chance, was there any other case like Song Ha Young?
How could I remember all of them?
To flip the case in the second session
we have to find the women who were taken advantage of
and take care of them ahead of time.
President, tell me everything.
You're not interrogating me, are you?
In order to win the trial, we must ensure the witnesses are on our side.
Cases like Song Ha Young...
If there is anyone like you who can testify against Nam Gyu Man
the judge said he'd take it into consideration as an important factor.
Is there anyone you can think of?
I have a friend, Min Hee, who I met while I was a trainee...
but I lost contact after the incident.
I don't even know where she lives now.
- Jin Woo. - Please leave.
I have only one answer.
Please, I beg you.
It's no use. Please leave now.
You're mistaken about my boss.
You know that.
Nam Il Ho did it.
Nam Gyu Man's video five years ago...
Boss was going to bring it to the retrial.
But... President Seok Joo Il interfered, and in the end he couldn't do it.
He was going to give up everything for you back then.
It's true.
My Boss knows very well that he deserves death for what he did to you.
But, Jin Woo...
Please, just this time...
Please save my Boss.
The car accident that day happened because of Nam Il Ho.
What?
Because of Nam Il Ho, I lost my father...
and you lost your brother and mother in one morning.
- What do you want now? - There is only one thing I wish for.
I hope that your father is found innocent.
You know Detective Gwak can take their side anytime and start yapping.
Yes, I know.
Stop saying that you know.
Make sure you have a good plan this time.
Your life and my life depend on the outcome of this trial.
Who is Park Dong Ho's attorney?
He doesn't have one yet.
It won't be easy to find a lawyer.
Who'd step up to defend a hoodlum like him?
He can defend himself.
Park Dong Ho is an attorney, that's why he is Attorney Park.
This is Prosecutor Go Gwang Il from the Central District Prosecutor's Office.
Hello, nice to meet you.
I am Nam Gyu Man.
I am Go Gwang Il.
Attorney Hong said you are very capable. He had great things to say about you.
He is too kind.
Prosecutor Go...
With regards to Park Dong Ho's trial...
What do you call the crime if the victim dies?
Of course, then it becomes murder.
I heard President Seok was unstable anyway...
I guess he can leave in peace.
Nam Gyu Man will keep trying to approach you in some way to stop you.
Ha Young, why don't you stay at my place until the trial is over?
My family is fine with it. You don't need to feel bad.
This isn't just about your case.
In addition to the Seochon college student case
we are preparing to bring up other cases related to Nam Gyu Man.
Will Nam Gyu Man take the heat?
It won't be easy, but thanks to your help, we're almost there.
- We're home! - You're here!
My name is Song Ha Young.
We heard from In Ah. You were living alone...
Yes.
I'm so proud of you that you were able to endure it on your own.
Thank you.
You can stay here for a while. Consider it your home and relax.
Can I really stay here...
I am thankful that you trusted me.
Father... [Bible]
Hollowed be... thy name
Did you leak the story on Kim Chan?
Forgive us our sins.
As we forgive those who have trespassed against us.
Look, Detective Gwak.
Are you playing the faithful?
You showed up while I am doing my best to repent.
What are you doing?
Keep in mind that Nam Gyu Man can still get to you even in here.
If you don't behave, you can have more years added to your sentence.
Are you threatening me?
If you think you're safe just because you're locked in here
you should discard that thought right away.
Amen.
[Attempted Murder Case at Construction Site in Seoha-dong]
[Defendant Park Dong Ho]
- Gyu Man... - Sit down, let's talk.
Should I?
The judge for Park Dong Ho's trial is Seok Gyu.
Park Dong Ho, Kang Seok Gyu...
They gathered the ones I want to crush.
Seok Gyu is famous for rendering fair verdicts...
Are you able to say that in front of me?
Judge Kang Seok Gyu is on Park Dong Ho's trial.
I'm sure Judge Kang will render a fair verdict after careful deliberation.
Jin Woo.
You have somewhere to go with me now.
I come here every time I can't organize my thoughts.
Jin Woo...
Prosecutor Chae and I will prepare thoroughly for Nam Gyu Man's trial.
Don't be too concerned.
And, for Park Dong Ho's trial...
Somehow, Park Dong Ho's father's car accident...
my father's trial...
and now, even Park Dong Ho's trial.
I really don't know why I keep getting involved with him.
Park Dong Ho's trial...
Is it really right for me not to take it on?
You've worried all day long about his trial.
What do you think it means?
It's because you think Park Dong Ho is innocent.
That's why you keep thinking about it.
In Ah...
You believe that no one should be falsely charged like your father was.
I trust that you will make the right choice on your own.
If something goes wrong with my Boss... Dong Ho, how can I go on?
If that happens, I'll follow him and die, too!
Hey, why would you die? You have to find a way to live somehow!
Life is such a thing that you can't see anything in front of you.
It's a tough life.
It's not that life is tough...
It's tough to live in this country where the ones with power run wild.
Since I have no chance to have power in this lifetime
I will leave this country soon.
Why? Did Nam Gyu Man cause more trouble?
No. I think Gyu Man will kill someone soon.
What? Who?
Me.
If Gyu Man hears about what I did...
he will do something about it.
It's a joke.
It's a joke. Drink up!
Dong Ho, call me "Boss" just once.
I don't want to.
Try it!
You're all grown up.
That's enough.
It's cold out. You should go home now.
Welcome.
It's been a while.
Have you been well?
You missed me, didn't you?
Why aren't you answering me?
Please... just leave.
When someone talks to you...
you should look him in the eye. Look at me.
Look! Look!
That's the etiquette. Right?
What?
Don't I look like a human being?
I didn't mean it...
The prosecutor's people stopped by, didn't they?
I won't attend. I promise you.
It's fine. Go ahead.
Go there and tell the truth.
How much... did you get paid?
After you made me happy.
Don't waste the rest of your life here.
Go to the courtroom and do a good job of telling your story.
I put in more than last time. Take it.
Why are you crying? Take it!
Look at me.
You don't look good at all.
Go get a facial and buy yourself some pretty clothes with this money. Okay?
It smells nice.
[IG Entertainment Actor Profile Personal Details Report]
- This is a friend of Ha Young's? - Yes.
I had a hard time finding the address.
If we can convince her and put her on the witness stand...
we can win the second session as well.
But... do you think she will really testify?
I will go there and do my best to convince her.
You are Park Min Hee, right?
Who are you?
My name is Lee In Ah.
You know Miss Song Ha Young, right?
Please leave!
There is nothing I want to say and I won't testify in court!
I have a question for you.
President Seok... You were trying to kill him, right?
Jin Woo...
Do you remember what you said to my father?
Mr. Seo Jae Hyuk, you killed Oh Jung Ah, right?
If you want to say that you can't remember anything
you have to be consistent with your attorney.
I've done it so many times, I can play along with you.
Attorney Park!
Do you also remember what your father said to me?
I didn't kill him.
If you really can't believe me...
you don't need to defend me.
He said that if I couldn't believe him, I didn't need to defend him.
I still don't believe you.
It's okay, Jin Woo.
You don't need to defend me.
You asked me a while ago...
If I were a doctor
and a murderer was stabbed and brought to my hospital, would I treat him.
You said it's same for lawyers.
You said you never ask for the truth. That is the judge's job.
- I did. - But that's not me.
Tell me the truth.
It wasn't me.
I didn't try to kill the Boss.
Listen up.
I'm not taking this case for you.
Nam Il Ho and Nam Gyu Man!
I am doing this to get them. To bring their crimes to light.
The truth doesn't speak for itself.
So I'm going to make it happen.
What?
Are you out of your mind?
This isn't just anyone. It's Park Dong Ho!
I'm just taking the case into consideration.
I can see so many strange circumstances.
Since you already made up your mind, I can't do anything.
But will you really be okay?
I just accepted a new client. I'm an attorney.
Don't worry too much.
When I arrived at the crime scene...
the victim was already in a coma.
When I checked the black box in the car
Park Dong Ho was recorded there.
So I pegged him as a suspect and went to his office.
By the way, didn't you see that the murder weapon was found there?
I know that you knew Park Dong Ho before that.
When he was digging up a case from the past, I helped him a little.
Who would have known that he was capable of this?
As the detective in charge of the case
was there anything not quite right or strange in the initial investigation?
There was nothing special.
As you know, for cases of murder or attempted murder
in most cases the victims know their assailant.
I see. Thank you for your time.
Take care.
Seo Jin Woo will be defending Park Dong Ho.
- What? - I really can't understand this.
The heck with them!
I don't know what Seo Jin Woo is thinking.
He's going to defend the man who led his father to death?
It won't be enough to crush him.
That's right.
The way I see it, they are plotting something together.
Otherwise, this doesn't make sense.
We'll see how Seo Jin Woo acts and find out.
That beggar bastard.
And the rest of the beggars.
I should just crush them all.
Regarding the tax audit on the top 10 corporations
Ilho Group won't be bothered, right?
Tax evasion, outflow of funds to a ghost company in Hong Kong
purchase of a mansion in California...
You did a great job of cleaning up everything.
To be honest, I was a little surprised.
I've had 20 years to learn the tricks of the trade.
This is really interesting.
I didn't think you'd hang out together like this.
Is it because you're serving the same master?
Is there anything that lasts forever?
I didn't think this is who you were, Prosecutor Tak.
Chairman Nam Il Ho thought highly of you.
You betrayed him and made him a joke.
Attorney Hong Moo Seok, as a prosecutor, as you know
I only indict someone who has committed a crime
The second session won't be easy at all.
Get ready.
Go ahead.
At nine in the morning you have a board meeting.
You have luncheon scheduled with Assemblyman Jung Ho Min at noon.
At two, you have a press conference--
Hey, is this the time for me to have lunch with an assemblyman?
- Cancel it. - It was set up three months ago, so...
I should take it out. I will.
Let me see it.
Why do I have so much on the calendar?
Should I reset my schedule?
I'm sorry.
I will give the evidence to the person who needs it the most.
- The evidence? - Huh?
What? Why are you so flustered?
It's nothing. It's my girlfriend.
You have a girlfriend?
Yes.
Good for you.
Hey, don't set up any meals with people for a while.
I have no appetite.
I got it.
How old is your girlfriend?
She was born in '95.
This is the real murder weapon for case of the college student in Seochon.
This... is the real weapon?
Yes. The one used in the trial five years ago was fake.
That's why your father's fingerprints weren't on it.
Gyu Man's fingerprints and Oh Jung Ah's blood are still on this one.
Also...
Here are the test results from the National Forensic Service.
How did you get this?
Soo Beom gave it to me.
I am giving it to you because I believe you need this evidence the most.
[Match: They are a perfect match.]
It must not have been an easy decision...
- Thank you so much. - Not at all.
Gyu Man is my friend...
but it was an obvious decision that I had to make as a judge.
This evidence won't be wasted.
We're finally getting closer to the truth.
Will you request another retrial?
Yes. With a retrial
I plan to expose all of Nam Gyu Man's crimes.
The moment I made Nam Gyu Man stand trial...
the beginning and the ending were determined.
- I'd like to call a witness. - Witness, come forward.
[Second Session of Nam Gyu Man's Aggravated Rape and Drug Possession Case]
You were a trainee at IG Entertainment until three months ago?
Yes.
What was your relationship with Miss Song Ha Young?
We were friends.
Did you know about Miss Song Ha Young's relationship with the defendant?
Yes.
Miss Song Ha Young often told you that she liked the defendant, right?
Objection! Counsel is leading the witness!
It is an important question that will help determine
whether it was a consensual relationship or aggravated rape.
Counselor, you may continue.
Miss Song Ha Young even said to you that she wanted to date Mr. Nam Gyu Man.
Is that true?
Witness, please answer the question.
Ha Young...
She never said that.
How many times have you come here?
- Min Hee. - Ha Young...
- Nam Gyu Man was here, wasn't he? - No.
Please leave.
He threatened you into giving false testimony in court, right?
I know you're in a difficult position.
But you shouldn't lower your head to Nam Gyu Man again this time.
How can I possibly fight against someone like Nam Gyu Man?
I want to live a comfortable life.
I don't want to live a tough life.
In order to prevent more victims like you and Ha Young...
we need you both to have courage.
If someone else had stepped up before he got to you two
it's possible that neither of you would have been a victim.
Min Hee...
I was also scared at first
but I gained more courage as I went through the trial.
Let's do this together.
We said that we'd do everything together when we were both trainees.
Min Hee...
I am an attorney...
but before that, I am a woman.
Let's put our faith in each other.
Nam Gyu Man did the same thing to me that he did to Ha Young.
I refused him firmly, but Nam Gyu Man took me by force.
Your Honor, this is an unsubstantiated claim!
Witness, please continue.
Also, Nam Gyu Man tried to buy me off with money!
Look, witness!
I don't need this money.
You think money can solve everything?
Witness, please calm down.
I request an additional charge
for inciting destruction of evidence.
[Destruction of Evidence]
Thank you for your courage.
To be honest, it kept bothering me.
You must've had a really tough time.
I will continue to help you even for a small bit.
When we checked the stab wound
we were able to identify the assailant's position and his movements.
[Medical Report]
What was the location of the assailant?
The suspect would have had to be sitting in the passenger seat.
Were there any other factors of note?
The victim had clear defensive wounds.
So the suspect should have some mark from the struggle.
Yes, there is a high probability of it.
President Nam of Ilho Group
is charged with drugging and raping
Trainee Song from a talent agency five years ago--
What the heck is going on with the trial?
It's not my fault.
I put all my faith in Attorney Hong...
but he's not as good as he used to be--
How old are you that you are blaming someone else?
Is Attorney Hong taking responsibility for your whole life?
I'm sorry.
The trial's not over yet, Father.
I'll stop the media coverage
and win the trial.
I can't put you in charge of our Group anymore.
Pardon?
Until the trial is wrapped up, stay out of the business.
- But, Father-- - Get out of here.
Dad...
I'm defending Park Dong Ho.
I'm sorry.
You abandoned your duty as an attorney four years ago.
But I am going to fight for you until the end.
Because I am the counselor...
for the defendant, Park Dong Ho.
The Honorable Judge is entering the courtroom. All rise.
Please be seated.
[First Session of the Trial for Attempted Murder in Seoha-dong]
We will begin the criminal trial at the Seoul Central District Court.
Prosecutor, present your case.
We request the indictment of Defendant Park Dong Ho
on the charge of attempted murder.
Defense Counsel, do you acknowledge the charge?
We do not acknowledge the charge.
Stop right there.
We submit the police investigation report as evidence.
According to the police report, the black box recorded Park Dong Ho at the scene
at the time of the crime.
That's all I have.
Counselor, do you have a counterargument?
Just because the defendant was at the crime scene
the Prosecutor is saying he is guilty.
According to the police report
no one else entered the crime scene on the day of the crime.
Was there really no one?
Did you go to the crime scene yourself?
It's all in the investigation report.
A prosecutor directs detectives on the investigation and makes decisions.
What if the initial investigation wasn't conducted properly?
This is a photograph of footprints at the crime scene that I took myself.
As you can see from the picture
there was a third person who entered the crime scene.
But the prosecutor is not taking this possibility into consideration.
This is speculation!
Even if there was a third person, murder is--
You can see that the direction of the footsteps
continue to the passenger seat where the crime occurred.
What about the possibility that the footprints were left by the defendant?
Two sets of footprints were found in the passenger seat where the defendant sat.
One print is 290 millimeters.
And the other is 275 millimeters.
The defendant's feet are 290 millimeters.
There was a third person at the crime scene.
This is proof of that.
That's all I have.
Prosecutor, present your case.
The victim's blood and flesh were found on the murder weapon.
And that murder weapon was found in Park Dong Ho's office.
Were the defendant's fingerprints found on that knife?
No, they were not found.
Probably because the defendant was wearing gloves.
We will submit it as additional evidence.
A trace of a leather glove was found on the handle of the knife
according to the analysis report from the National Forensic Service.
If there were no fingerprints on the weapon
then it is all only circumstantial evidence.
The defendant's fingerprints...
This is the real weapon from the murder of the college student in Seochon.
This... is the real weapon?
Yes. The one used in the trial five years ago was fake.
That's why your father's fingerprints were not found.
This weapon is a fake.
The defendant's fingerprints are not on it!
Counselor, you're saying this is a fake weapon?
I am showing you the analysis report from the National Forensic Service!
Counselor, the Prosecutor submitted
a report from the National Forensic Service.
Do you have any basis for your claim that it's fake?
The fingerprint...
Why do you keep repeating the same word?
Can't you remember what you just said?
Counselor!
The defendant is... suffering from Alzheimer's.
Counselor, what did you say?
Memory loss?
How convenient.
You can't remember the critical moments?
You seem to be planning to go with memory loss as your defense.
Is it possible that you don't remember the fact of murdering her?
That's not true! I didn't kill her!
If you can't remember, how can you be sure that you didn't kill her?
You can't give me an answer.
The defendant...
did not kill Oh Jung Ah.

Seo Jin Woo requested a retrial with Detective Gwak's video.
There is a high probability of a retrial.
This video should be pretty powerful outside of the courtroom.
You requested a retrial? It's too bad that you won't even recognize my face.
- Boss! - Dong Ho, I'm sorry.
I'm sure you will find the new Prosecutor perfect for the case, Chairman.
I am Prosecutor Lee In Ah.
