I'm at Seoul Central District Court, where a trial is being held...
for Daehwa Group's Chairman, Jung Geun Moo.
Chairman Jung who is out on bail due to his health...
is expected to testify today.
Will the prosecution be able to prove Chairman Jung's...
breach of duty?
- Chairman Jung! - A statement, please!
- Chairman Jung. - Please say something!
Please give us a statement.
- Out of the way! - What do you have to say?
- Let him through! - Sir, please look over here.
- Sir! - Sir!
- Be strong!
- Hang in there! - Be strong!
- You'll be fine.
Be strong, Sir.
(Prosecution Counsels' Bench)
(Defense Counsels' Bench)
Please come forward.
(Witness Stand)
I swear...
to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.
If I say anything that is untrue, I understand I will be guilty...
of perjury.
Your Honour,
the accused is trying to use his health as a pretense...
to request a stay.
Is that correct?
That's correct.
Since he came all the way here,
I'll ask a few simple questions and end my examination.
May I question the defendant?
Counsel.
What is he doing?
Wait for my permission.
Counsel.
The court isn't a playground.
My apologies, Your Honour.
You may question the defendant.
It must have been...
difficult for you to come all the way here...
with your health.
Aren't you humiliated?
The entire country knows that you're putting on an act.
Is this the hospital?
Is this what hospitals look like these days?
You were healthy just yesterday.
Why are you so sickly today?
- Your Honour. - Counsel.
Please speak up.
My throat is...
Hospital...
Mr Jung.
You got sick while you were being detained.
You must want to kill me...
since a nobody prosecutor is sticking it...
to the chairman of a large corporation.
My, my.
Oh, my.
Your Honour!
What are you doing?
Well...
Just a moment.
What...
Oh my gosh!
- Sir. Are you all right? - He's fine.
Oh my gosh.
He's fine.
- He just stood up. - He got up.
My, my.
Goodness. It's a miracle.
A miracle.
Leave Chairman Jung alone!
This is my final warning. I won't allow for any more insubordination.
It's too late.
I'll go my way. Don't stop me.
Mr Jo.
You punk!
I thought you were smart.
Why are you digging your own grave?
You'll see whose grave I'm digging.
You punk!
Will you save 100 prosecutors...
or kill one prosecutor?
The pride of all prosecutors is on the line.
Are you saying...
we should sacrifice Jo Deul Ho for the sake of the organisation?
This is why we care about people's backgrounds.
Get rid of him before he gets out of control.
Take it all!
Seize everything including his notes.
What's going on?
Wait! Wait!
Excuse me.
Mr Jo is in court right now!
What are you doing when he isn't even present?
I have a warrant.
Hurry. We don't have time!
Wait.
He embezzled funds that should've been used...
for the company and used it for himself.
The poor is oppressed by the law,
while the rich is above it.
This is an opportunity...
to prove that rich or poor,
everyone is equal before the law.
Your Honour,
I request that you make a fair and strict verdict.
Defense. You may proceed.
Mr Jung.
How do you feel right now?
Are you telling me to confess?
That's our best option at the moment.
Can you take full responsibility?
That fact that I'm here...
is humiliating.
Do you have any intention of admitting to...
all of the charges?
Daehwa is...
a company I've built for 40 years with my sweat and tears.
I never...
embezzled company funds.
The only thing I did wrong...
was bribing the prosecutor...
because I was threatened.
What?
Can you tell us today which prosecutor...
you bribed?
Him.
I bribed Jo Deul Ho.
Team 1, block the doors. Team 2, come with me.
Seal all the exits.
Silence in the court!
Counsel.
Do you have proof to support the defendants' testimony?
Of course, we do.
This is a copy of the fake account that the defendant used...
to bribe the prosecutor.
(Jo Deul Ho)
Come out.
Counsel.
Where are you going?
Jo Deul Ho.
- They should arrest him. - He's the crook.
He's the bad guy.
I can't believe this.
Go and plead with Mr Jang.
You have to.
Beg him to help you.
Wait.
Shoot.
- Mr Jo. - Let's go.
Mr Jo!
Stop.
This is so dusty.
- Stop! - Stop!
Stop!
Stop! Stop!
That freak, Jo Deul Ho.
How embarrassing.
I was so shocked.
My heart is still racing.
You've suffered unnecessarily.
All the charges will be dropped,
so you'll be free in two weeks.
That Jo Deul Ho dug up quite a bit.
Won't the others bug me, too?
I'll take care of it.
Stop!
Freeze!
- Mr Jo Deul Ho. - Mr Jo!
Stop right there!
Stop!
- Stop! - Stop right there!
Breaking news.
Chairman Jung Geun Moo...
confessed today during trial...
that he had bribed Jo Deul Ho, the prosecutor on the case.
Mr Jo!
Is it true?
Get out of the way.
One, two, three.
- Cheers! - Bottoms up.
- Cheese! - Cheese!
Mr Jang. Sir. Wait!
Mr Jang! Just a minute!
Let me in! Mr Jang!
Sir, please make one phone call on my behalf!
Mr Jang! Wait!
Sir!
One bad apple ruins the lot.
I misjudged you.
- Sir, please help me! - Let's go.
Please! I live for the people!
Wait!
Sir!
Just a minute. Just a minute!
Explain in court.
Jo Deul Ho,
you're done for.
(Declaration of Divorce)
Give up custody over Soo Bin.
Must you do this?
You'll get a one-year stay of execution.
I'll settle with the prosecutor.
You want me to sell Soo Bin...
to negotiate my sentence?
You're the one that made the situation what it is now.
You didn't...
marry me because you loved me.
It's the same for me.
But I realised that too late.
We were never a good match to begin with.
You should...
go back to where you belong.
Case number...
2013-1567.

(3 years later)
Hello!
(Law Firm Geum San)
Oh, no.
Wait!
Hey.
Hey!
Wait!
This case...
will decide whether or not you can buy a yacht.
Devote all your time to this case.
Unless it's a case dealing with tens of millions of dollars,
we will not take on any new cases.
If you're going to buy a yacht,
you should start working out.
Especially you, Mr Kim.
She must have been shopping for a yacht already.
I'm sorry.
- Hello. - Hold on!
Hello.
- Here it is. - Hello.
Thank you.
Hello.
- Here's your motion. - Thank you.
Sorry. I've been too busy to call.
Kimchi?
Forget it. I have enough.
Mum, you always talk to me about food.
- Eun Jo. - Yes.
Find him.
It's his name on the fake bank account.
But... But...
How do I find him?
How else?
Hit the pavement.
I can do it!
Enjoy your meal.
- When I was in my prime... - Whatever.
Everyone was successful in their prime.
- Gosh. - Whatever.
- Forget it. - Excuse me.
Excuse me. I'm sorry to interrupt.
Do you know or have you seen this man, Kim Yong Tae?
What will you give me in return?
I don't know.
Would you like a hug?
She's funny!
I'm sorry. No...
- I'm sorry. - Hey.
Oh, my. Hey.
Excuse me. I'm sorry to wake you,
but are you Kim Yong Tae?
Excuse me.
Excuse me!
Oh my gosh.
- Are you Kim Yong Tae? - Gosh.
Or do you know...
Gosh!
Did you ever sell your identity...
I'm sorry.
You!
My gosh.
You know,
that man was a prosecutor.
- Jo? - Yes.
Whatever.
Then I'm a judge.
Some unique-looking woman came by before...
and called him a prosecutor. I heard her calling him that.
Really?
I heard you used to be a prosecutor.
While I was in the slammer,
my wife borrowed 3,000 dollars in my name.
There's an evil loan shark by the name of Bae Dae Soo.
He's never there when I go to pay the loan.
If I go again, he's gone again.
Then one day,
he demanded that I pay him 6,000 dollars!
So, you know...
I feel so wronged.
Please hear me out!
- Hey! - Prosecutor!
Are you brushing your teeth?
- He's brushing his teeth. - Hold on.
Prosecutor.
If you don't want to get involved yourself,
introduce me to another prosecutor or a police officer.
We'll spread the word.
- Okay? - Say something.
Say something already! You're so frustrating!
Stop! Prosecutor!
Prosecutor!
Prosecutor! Where are you going?
- Stop! - Prosecutor!
- Get back here! - Give us a minute.
- Prosecutor! - Please help us!
Prosecutor!
It's over there.
That's it.
There.
You punks!
Must I really go myself?
Where do I have to go?
- Kim from New Town Bar. - And?
Jo from the blood sausage joint.
I told you not to lend him money!
You lent it to him!
You punk.
Come with me!
Bae Dae Soo!
Bae Dae Soo.
What's this?
Dae Soo!
Move! Don't touch him!
Sir, what brings you by?
Your hands automatically fold.
- How have you been? - Well...
You're looking good.
But...
This is the latest style.
Let's have some tea.
- But I have business... - Let's go.
But I...
Well...
Please.
You look fancy, dressed like that.
You look rich.
It's just a facade.
I'm barely surviving.
Someone who's barely surviving...
lends 3,000 and takes 6,000 dollars?
- Me? - Who else?
Get in here!
Come in.
- Come in. - Shoot.
Do you remember?
Say hi.
You have a great friend, Mr Hwang.
Take a look.
What's this?
The 3,000 dollars you stole minus the current interest rate.
Look at this.
You are too much.
What do you mean?
Mr Hwang!
Come now.
Look here.
You borrowed a measly 3,000 dollars...
and annoyed me by paying me back 50 dollars to 100 dollars at a time.
Didn't you know I was a loan shark?
You know how we make money!
Do you know how much he eats?
- Dae Soo. - You jerk.
You shouldn't yell at someone else's place of business.
I didn't want to say this,
but do you remember being arrested...
for importing counterfeit goods from China?
Why are you doing this?
I dropped the charges back then,
but there's still a year left before its statute of limitations runs out.
We haven't seen each other in ages.
You're being so mean.
Me?
That's 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10. It's right.
He did it!
I'll be going now.
Are you just leaving?
Of course.
Dae Soo.
Have you heard anything?
Like what?
Never mind.
- Bye. - Have a nice day!
Gosh.
Oh my gosh.
Who is he, Boss?
He's known as Seocho-dong's freak.
A vicious prosecutor who will get you even for crimes you committed...
in your past life.
Did that prosecutor mug you?
He did.
He got fired for it three years ago.
What?
Then why did you give him our money?
I gave him spending money.
I owe him quite a bit.
He become a homeless man with a bad credit overnight.
Imagine how much he's hurting inside!
Imagine how much I'm hurting!
You must have been a great prosecutor.
I know.
- Wow. - Thank you.
- Here's your 10 percent. - No thanks.
Just take it.
It's free money anyway.
Take it.
- Hello! - Hello!
Come this way.
Here.
Hello.
Hi. You're pretty. Are you new?
Let's have some fun tonight.
We have...
three people.
Gosh.
Sorry.
All the rooms are taken.
What? What was that?
We brought a prosecutor!
Prosecutor? My gosh.
- Goodness. - "Goodness"?
Did you just mock me?
Please leave while we're being nice,
Mr Prosecutor, Sir.
You bums.
Mr Jo! Our prosecutor!
How have you been?
Why haven't you been coming?
- What is this? - I'm sorry
Our apologies..
You said you had no rooms!
Are you discriminating against us?
- Hey! - Why you!
- How dare you? - Get rid of them!
- Whatever! - Come on.
Let go!
We didn't ask for anything special!
- Get lost! - How dare you?
- Get over here! - Gosh.
Stay away.
You need to be taught a lesson.
Get back here!
Stop right there!
- Gosh. - Stop. Stop!
Call the owner!
Hold on.
- Hey! - Prosecutor.
Wow!
Aren't you Mr Jo, the prosecutor?
Darn it.
Where are you going?
Wait for us.
- What's this? - Wait for us!
- Wait.
- Hello? - I found him.
Who else?
The person with the fake bank account.
The fake bank account?
The police found him, so go home.
Well...
Really?
Okay. Yes, Sir.
Excuse me.
Aren't you Kim Yong Tae?
No.
I'm Kim Young Tae.
Exactly.
Couldn't he have told me that they found him?
Why did he make me go through all this trouble?
I know.
I don't know if I'm an attorney or a personal assistant.
What were you doing, Mum?
Beer? With whom?
I see. You drank with my step-dad.
You should've said so.
Mum, I need to go.
Excuse me.
Leave me alone.
I think he just took something.
Excuse me. I think he's a pickpocket.
Who?
Wait!
Oh, no.
Wait!
Stop!
Soo Bin.
Jo Soo Bin. Jo Soo Bin. Jo Soo Bin.
Daddy...
Today,
people kept asking me for help again.
Those jerks kept bugging me,
so I...
beat them up.
Didn't I do well?
So just for today,
let me have one drink. Okay?
Just this much.
Is that okay?
Gosh!
You rat!
Hey!
You jerk. You jerk!
Excuse me!
Stop!
Hey!
Stop right there!
Stop.
Stop! I said stop!
Get over here.
You know who I am, don't you?
Look at you.
You punk.
I was going to go easy on you,
but you just won't do.
You punk.
Kang Il Goo.
Why are you here?
Look, they're over there.
They're over there.
Hey!
Hey! Hey!
Freeze! Freeze!
Mister.
Do you know that man who ran away?
- Do you? - Wait.
Hold on.
He may be working with him.
Let me see some ID.
This wallet isn't yours!
Take him away.
See? He was an accomplice.
You really won't say anything?
Are you serious?
Give me your name and social security number!
Excuse me, Detective.
You can't yell like that.
Everyone is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
And let me know if you need an attorney.
Even criminals have a right to an attorney.
Look who's here.
Mr Shin.
Congratulations.
I heard you're being promoted.
It's all thanks to you.
Is that him?
Yes. He's skilled and loyal.
You'll like him.
Come and introduce yourself.
I'm Jo Deul Ho.
It's nice to meet you.
- Have a seat. - Thank you.
Everyone together now!
I wonder if she's here
I call out to her
But a bald man
Asks if I called for him
Old lady with rolls of fat
This isn't a bath house
Young man!
You're hilarious!
I look forward to working with you.
I'll serve you well.
Let's go for another round.
What is this?
He's a petty criminal. Take care of it.
You will get...
a major sponsor.
I'll take care of it.
From what I saw earlier,
you sing and dance well.
I tried.
Where did you learn how to do that?
But you know,
we are prosecutors of Korea no matter where we are.
A prosecutor...
shouldn't do anything humiliating.
Here.
(Written Statement)
(Witness: Kang Il Goo)
Sir.
He's here.
Please wait outside.
Yes, Sir. I'll be right outside.
Kang Il Goo.
What happened to you?
Why are you here?
I have no luck.
Of all the prosecutors,
why did it have to be you?
Is this statement true?
Did you really set fire to a construction site?
Gosh.
Why did you do it?
Didn't you know someone was in there?
A person died because of you!
Tell me.
Tell me!
Tell me why you did it so that I can help you!
You left.
You left to have a good life. So why would you help?
How can you help?
He's a petty criminal. Take care of it.
Yes, Sir.
Sir.
I need to talk to you about that petty criminal.
Is it true that Chairman Jung's son caused the fire...
and the kid, Kang Il Goo, from an orphanage took the blame?
So?
Kang Il Goo agreed to take the fall...
because Chairman Jung agreed to fund the orphanage.
So?
I've done anything and everything you've ever asked of me.
Please, just this once,
let me drop the charges for this case.
I'll stay silent.
I'll get rid of all the evidence.
Why?
Kang Il Goo...
I know him.
He's only 20 years old. Please spare him.
Please, Sir.
Sir. I know Chairman Jung...
is setting things up to make you the chief prosecutor.
- But... - Do what you want.
You should get what you want once in a while.
Thank you.
You may go.
Thank you.
Hello.
Deul Ho!
Over here.
Ae Ra.
I'm losing my mind.
Please help me.
Why?
You look comfortable. Just rest in there.
I slept well.
You're so shameless. Did you come here to rest?
Why didn't you tell them? It was all caught on camera.
Tell them what?
You reek. You didn't wash for at least a month, did you?
I got you a place to stay. Why won't you live there?
What crime did I commit in my past life?
Stop. Stop. Don't.
Don't.
- Come on. - Get away. Goodness.
Gosh. I'm going to talk to them,
so wait right there.
Freeze!
I knew it.
Stop.
Freeze.
He worries me.
Excuse me.
Hello.
Whatever.
I'm...
terribly sorry about last night.
You have a serious problem.
I'm very sorry. I had the wrong idea.
Do you know Article 156 of the Penal Code?
Pardon?
The crime of saying this and that...
with the intent of having someone...
arrested or disciplined. False accusation.
You've got problems.
Excuse me. Hold on.
Are you...
hungry?
Here.
Let me know if you ever need an attorney.
I don't mean anything by it.
If something like last night happens again,
maybe I'll be of help.
Geum San?
Yes. I'm sure you've heard of us.
It's the best law firm with the best attorneys.
I'm one of the attorneys.
Why did you become an attorney?
Pardon?
Why did you become an attorney?
Well...
To make sure innocent people aren't made to be criminals.
Even if we lose 10 criminals,
we can't have a single person wrongfully convicted.
That's my motto.
I'm losing my appetite.
That exists only in fairy tales.
Why did you become an attorney?
Goodness. You are so cynical.
What do you do?
You seem oddly familiar.
Stop changing the subject. Why won't you answer my question?
Are you hitting on me?
Excuse me.
One more serving, please.
You already ate five servings of ribs.
Forget it then. I won't eat.
Cancel that please!
Cheapskate.
The best attorneys at the best law firm?
You cry over five servings. You call that the best?
I won't eat.
I hope we never see each other again.
Bye.
What a jerk!
An officer who was working on an unsolved case...
arrested a suspect for the construction site fire...
from three years ago.
The suspect is being investigated for starting a fire...
in order to discard the body of the person he killed.
The cold case team is using this as a platform...
Don't worry.
The police found the arsonist by chance.
How nice would it have been...
if we closed it out nicely three years ago?
This is because of Jo Deul Ho.
He stopped half-way!
Sir.
This may be...
an opportunity to close it out.
I know it'll be difficult since people are talking about...
the incident from three years ago.
It came to the prosecutor's office,
so I'll handle it.
I need you...
to take on that case.
You control it all, from the investigation to the trial.
(Case Report)
Wasn't this case dropped three years ago?
(Case Dropped)
Yes. It was Jo Deul Ho's case.
You finish it up.
Yes, Sir.
(Murder, arson, Defendant Byun Ji Shik)
May I really take this case?
Don't you want it?
- Then I'll take it back... - No. No.
I'll do my best.
Thank you.
Hello.
I'm Lee Eun Jo from Geum San. It's nice to meet you.
Hello.
Ma'am.
I didn't do it.
I mean it.
Please believe me.
Then...
do you deny everything in your statement?
It was so long ago. I don't remember it very well.
It's just that...
the prosecutor asked over and over again,
so I said maybe it's possible.
Don't worry too much.
I'll...
Geum San will do our best to help you.
- Why did you turn off the music? - What's he doing?
Let me...
ask you something.
Do you know Kang Il Goo?
What's wrong with you?
Gosh.
Il Goo!
What? What is it?
How did you find me?
Eat.
Gosh. Do you think I'm a beggar or something?
What a small world.
How could we meet there?
Were you surprised?
Someone I haven't seen in three years...
shows up as a pickpocket and wields a knife at me.
I'm sorry for being surprised.
Why do you live like this?
What did you think I'd be doing?
I'm no longer an ex-con thanks to a great prosecutor,
so did you think I'd study hard and become a judge or prosecutor?
Il Goo.
You got fired for taking bribes.
I knew...
when you cut ties with the orphanage.
You're garbage.
You punk.
Garbage just hit me.
You punk.
What's your problem?
Three years ago!
If I had looked the other way,
I wouldn't have ended up in this rut.
What are you so proud of?
You destroyed my life!
What are you so proud of?
Hey! Get him!
What an annoying old geezer.
Stop it!
Let's go.
- How did it go? - Well...
- Deul Ho! - We have...
Who are they? Do you know them?
Yes. Why don't you go ahead?
I'll wait in the car.
I'll be right there.
Why did you come here?
We waited forever.
- Father wanted you to have this. - What is it?
He made it himself, just for you.
Kimchi!
I don't have time for that right now.
Take this and get something good to eat.
And don't come back.
Jo Deul Ho!
Do you think we're beggars?
Let's go!
I said let's go!
What are you looking at? Let's go!
Go.
What's your deal?
It's warm.
Why do you live like this?
Warm.
You were so arrogant. Now, look at you.
Aren't you humiliated?
Get revenge. Shall I do it for you?
Revenge for what?
I thought you were just a pickpocket, but you're a thug.
Are you a thug? Are you?
Gosh. Why are you hitting my head?
"Gosh"?
Look at you.
Do you want to take me?
Hey.
- What? - You little punk.
You reek!
It's killing me. Let go.
Get over here.
Don't come closer!
Get away!
She's coming out.
This is good.
Let's go see the Father.
No.
Let's go.
Father and the kids miss you.
You go.
Fine. Tell me whenever you change your mind.
Okay? Okay?
Fine! Goodness.
How long are you going to be a pickpocket?
You're young. They'll take that in consideration so turn yourself in.
Stop acting like an old geezer.
This is how I'll live.
Fine. Be a pickpocket for the rest of your life.
Look at yourself.
What is this?
You got the top score on the bar exam.
Why are you a bum?
You punk.
I'm leaving!
Bye!
Tell me if you need money!
Stop your nonsense.
Don't bring me your pork ribs. It's gross. It's not even beef.
Good for you!
Yes, I'm pretty awesome!
Deul Ho!
Sorry about last time!
Sorry!
Gosh.
Il Goo.
Are you okay?
Il Goo! Il Goo!
Are you okay?
Help! Somebody help! Help!
Help!
Help.
Il Goo.
Help. Help. Please help.
Help.
Il Goo! Il Goo!
Help!
I'm to blame.
I'm sorry.
I knew the money Il Goo was sending the orphanage...
was money that he stole.
Why?
But I couldn't stop him.
It's all my fault. All of it.
Deul Ho.
Il Goo...
was always thankful to you.
Bye!
Tell me if you need money!
You're our pride!
I'm going to become just like you.
Deul Ho!
Sorry about last time!
What's your problem?
Three years ago!
If I had looked the other way,
I wouldn't have ended up in this rut.
What are you so proud of?
You destroyed my life!
What are you so proud of?
The first day of the trial begins today...
for the construction site fire and murder case from three years ago.
The fire was understood to have been started...
in order to disguise a dead body.
The case had remained unsolved until now,
and Mr Byun, the accused, claims his innocence.
- Excuse me. - Yes?
What's the date today?
It's the 28th.
What month is it?
It's March!
It's my fault.
I buried the truth.
He's a petty criminal. Take care of it.
I have no luck.
Why did it have to be you?
Did you really set fire to a construction site?
Didn't you know someone was in there?
Let me drop the charges for this case.
I'll get rid of all evidence.
It's my fault.
(Construction site fire and murder trial, Day 1)
Seoul Central District Court will now hear...
Case 2016-2915 for defendant,
Byun Ji Shik,
for arson and murder.
Prosecution,
please state the charges.
Please wait a minute!

Send him away.
Please wait!
Your Honour.
I'm sorry, I'm late.
I'm the defendant's attorney,
Jo Deul Ho.
Jo Deul...
(Attorney Retainer Agreement)
(Neighbourhood Lawyer Jo Deul Ho)
Do you think they have evidence or no?
The other attorney is a total whack job.
Is he a con man?
The defendant is not guilty.
He'll attack as if his life depends on it.
He won't care whether or not it's legal.
Let's lose that trial.
I said I'd represent him with you, not that I'll join you.
What a jerk.
It won't be easy to beat him.
Now that I'm a lawyer,
the world looks different.
Are you telling him to lie?
All I know is...
that Byun Ji Shik is not the perpetrator.
