- Calm down. - Calm down.
Calm down. Calm down.
Tase him.
- Do you how sensitive this is? - Oh, gosh.
Mister!
Mr Joe!
(Episode 14)
- Move. - Let her go.
Move.
Move? Move where?
You move. Do you know me?
How dare you speak so rudely to me?
Let her go. Now.
I'll kill her.
What do you want?
Lee So Jung?
Or this?
Let her go.
Weren't you trained at all?
Don't you even know who Lee So Jung is?
I'll burn this, so let her go.
- Mr Joe, not the ledger! - No! Don't do that!
Do you know how important that is?
- This isn't important! Let her go. - Oh my gosh.
If you do, I'll burn this.
Wait.
Let me see the inside.
Let me ask you something...
before I show it to you.
You killed Lee Myung Joon,
didn't you?
Fine.
You worked hard, crawling through the vent to go in and out.
Open it already!
- No! No! - Don't do it!
- No! - Don't!
- No! - No!
- I said not to do it! - No!
No!
Ae Ra... Oh, gosh.
Oh, no. Are you okay?
Freeze!
Drop the knife.
Drop the knife!
Cuff him.
You jerk.
Don't move.
Dae Soo.
Dae Soo. Are you okay?
What took you so long?
You'd better buy drinks.
I caught Lee Myung Joon's murderer.
What about the ledger?
We've arrested...
Lee Myung Joon's murderer.
Don't you have any questions?
I'm sure you do.
What else is there to ask?
It was burned.
- What was? - The item...
you searched so desperately for.
You seemed stressed out about it.
I'm telling you, so that you can relax.
You'll sleep well tonight.
Yes, Sir. There's no need to worry.
The ledger was burned.
I'm sure of it.
As for Lee Myung Joon's case,
I'll make sure you aren't harmed by it.
The ledger...
was burned. It's gone.
We'll check again to be sure.
Also,
make sure the killer keeps his mouth shut.
The chief prosecutor says he'll take care of it, but...
Yes, Sir.
Thank you for everything.
No,
thank you...
for being brave.
Please make sure...
no one else dies for no reason like my brother did.
(Locker receipt)
What is this?
I wanted to leave the country,
but gave up because of Chairman Jung's people.
I put it there just in case.
It'll be of help to you.
Good work, everyone.
Good work, Dae Soo.
Are you all right?
Yes, I'm fine. I'm fine.
- I don't think you are. - This is comfortable.
The guy who killed Lee Myung Joon claimed...
he was conned by him and killed him out of revenge.
That's absurd.
I almost died.
That's horrible.
Furthermore, there is no talk about Chairman Jung or the ledger.
I am speechless. Utterly speechless.
This is too much.
How could prosecutors do this?
It wasn't this bad when you were a prosecutor, was it?
Didn't we expect all of this?
This is too much. Too much.
Fine. Whatever.
Mr Joe. How will you compensate me for that?
For what? Your bottom?
Come on. It was my ledger that you burned.
Come here.
Give me your ledger.
The prosecutors took that.
That was a copy.
You have the original in your car.
How did you know?
Wow. You are so quick.
What will you do with it?
It may come in handy. Give it to me.
Do you mean the ledger that you burned...
was your ledger?
I thought my heart would stop when I saw him burn it.
Just get back the copy that the prosecutors took.
You can use that. What's the problem?
If I go and ask them to give it to me,
would they actually give it to me?
They'll give it all back once the investigation is over.
- Stop it! - Oh my gosh.
- Don't do that. - I'm sorry.
Don't touch me.
Every time you touch me, I feel electricity shooting through me.
When I touch you? Do I have that much of an effect?
- Stop it. - I'm sorry.
- Stop it! - I'm sorry.
- Stop it! - Oh, no!
- Dae Soo! - Boss.
Wait a minute.
What's with him?
It looks serious,
but he looks happy, too.
Should I try that, too?
Don't joke about that.
Where do you think the real ledger is?
I don't know.
It must be somewhere.
Maybe I should try it.
But...
Is there really...
no copy of the ledger?
He destroyed it as soon as he got it,
so he wouldn't have had the time to make a copy.
What if Deul Ho shows up and claims to have the ledger?
What then?
That won't happen. Don't worry.
Also,
whenever you deal with Deul Ho,
you should confer with me first.
- Confer? - Because...
you unreasonably framed him of murder,
things almost went south.
Mr Shin.
Are you lecturing me?
Sir.
No good could come of antagonising a rabid dog.
A rabid dog.
Are you talking about Deul Ho or me?
Mr Shin has a point.
You should be careful when dealing with Deul Ho.
What's with you both?
That's why I said we should kill that Deul Ho punk...
before he could mess with me!
If Deul Ho messes with me one more time,
I swear...
I will kill him!
I'm not kidding!
I'm worried that Chairman Jung will get worse.
What if he turns on us, too?
We'll have to stop him first.
Not long ago,
Hae Kyung came to see me about Deul Ho's case.
I heard she went to see Mr Ko as well.
It seems...
she worked hard in her own way...
to clear her child's dad's name. My apologies.
Children are always the problem.
I was too rash.
I wanted to take down Chairman Jung,
but ended up being entrapped.
And a man died.
The larger the prey,
the tighter the net...
and stronger the trap you need.
Hello.
Thank you for making the time.
It's my honour.
I've been following you on the news.
You're helping the powerless people, which we should be doing.
I'm embarrassed.
Not at all.
I'm sure you didn't come to exchange pleasantries.
Why did you want to see me?
Have you heard of the Jung Geun Moo List?
The Jung Geun Moo List?
You know that Chairman Jung...
created a slush fund to lobby and bribe the officials,
don't you?
That's a common story in the tabloids.
What if I have...
that very list?
Would you help me...
catch Chairman Jung?
That by itself...
won't be enough to catch Chairman Jung.
If the recipients deny it,
it's nothing but a piece of paper.
We get dozens of lists like that...
every single day.
You need the account numbers, dates and amount.
With that, you need to put the puzzle together.
If you can't do that, it's useless.
What if I can put the puzzle together?
Do you really have that list?
Who knows?
Do you know why I came to you?
It's because your name was not on that list.
I wonder if you're disappointed...
that you were left out.
Please help me in my cause!
Your precious child may die.
Please.
Your precious child may die. Goodness!
Gosh. What is this?
You can't obstruct people walking by.
- Should we report you? - Should we take you in?
What did I do wrong?
- We've received complaints! - What did I do?
Can't I even talk about my child's wrongful death?
If you leave now,
we won't take you in.
- How could you do this? - A one-person protest...
isn't subject to laws of assembly.
Don't you know that, officers?
- Who are you? - Me?
I'm the neighbourhood... A neighbourhood citizen.
Why can't a person express what they feel?
She was protesting peacefully. What's the problem?
From now on,
go to Yeoui-do.
Don't come back here!
What did she do wrong?
- Here you go. - Thank you.
I don't know what it is,
but hang in there.
Thank you.
If you keep shouting, someone will hear you.
If what you're saying is right, more will agree with you.
I'm a lawyer.
Let me know if someone bugs you again.
I'll help you.
Hang in there.
- Number 17. - Yes.
I came to repay my loan.
- Let me see your ID. - Sure.
Ma'am!
Are you okay?
Someone call 911.
- Straighten her legs. - Okay.
Ma'am.
Breathe.
Hang in there.
You'll be fine.
Please take good care of her.
Really?
You're so cool.
What was wrong with her?
- They think it was an overdose. - Goodness.
The ambulance took her away.
I hope she'll be okay.
I know. That's why you need to exercise on a regular basis.
You never know what will happen.
That's the age we're at.
Let's exercise. Let's sign up for a membership for the pool out front.
The pool? Just the two of us?
You're so gross.
How much more do you want to know about me?
- Let's just do kendo with masks... - Just the two of us?
- What's the ruckus about? - Mr Joe.
- Hello. - Hello.
Mr Joe.
Ms Lee saved a woman's life at the bank today.
You did? Good.
Where were you all day?
We keep losing clients because you're not here.
Are you nagging me for not working?
Were you drinking?
Am I flushed?
Gosh.
Did we get any new clients?
We had people come to consult...
on a divorce and an eviction matter.
Ms Lee can handle those.
Everyone wants you.
Excuse me.
Is...
Mr Joe Deul Ho here?
Hello. Come in. Come this way.
Excuse me, Sir.
Do you remember me?
Of course. You were the one protesting earlier...
Please help me.
What? How may I help you?
We need to stop them from selling Power King.
Please help me.
Sure, well...
We're lawyers.
You should go somewhere else...
with consumer complaints.
My daughter died...
after drinking Power King.
I'll sue if I must,
but we have to get that product off the shelves.
I understand how you feel,
but as you can see,
we run a small office.
I'll refer you to a firm that does litigations with corporations.
When I met you earlier,
I had a feeling you were it.
Please take on the case.
Ma'am. Don't worry too much.
We'll take on the case.
Thank you.
- Thank you. - Sure. Just a moment.
Come.
Please have a seat.
Do you know how many experts are needed for a case like this?
We can't handle it.
What if things go wrong?
- You'll take it on anyway. - What?
How do you know that?
The company that produces Power King...
is Daehwa's subsidiary.
What?
I looked it up while the two of you were speaking.
Please tell us exactly what happened.
They say children are the apple of your eye.
My child was like that to me.
- Hi, Mum. - Hi, Yoo Ra.
I raised her alone while working...
at a factory.
They're all swollen.
My legs got swollen all the time from standing all day.
That must have saddened her. My dear daughter.
I never got her a tutor,
but she was always top five in her grade.
She studied so hard.
She even said sleeping made her nervous.
She said she had exams coming up.
She stayed up several nights...
and drank Power King.
I should've stopped her.
(Study hall)
Hey. Hey. What's wrong?
- What's wrong with her? - Oh, my!
The doctor said caffeine overdose made her vomit...
which blocked the air passage to her lungs.
Do you believe...
Power King is what did that to your daughter?
I'm sure of it.
Too many children are drinking this!
The government isn't doing anything!
Has this been on the news at all?
It's been quiet. Strangely so.
(Side effects of Power King)
I decided I couldn't sit still.
I had to do something.
If only my words could get through,
I went anywhere and everywhere.
But instead,
they pressed charges for defamation and obstruction of business.
The more they did that, the angrier I got.
If they did nothing wrong,
why would they file charges against me?
Have you met with an attorney?
Yes.
I decided I should sue them...
even if it cost me my life savings.
So I went to Geum San, the largest firm in the country.
They said I have no standing...
and refused.
I'm sure they did.
Other law firms were all the same.
They said I wouldn't win.
I can't...
I can't give up,
at least for Yoo Ra's sake. No, I refuse to give up!
Okay.
Okay. I'll take on your case.
Thank you.
Thank you, Sir.
Thank you.
Thank you so much.
Don't worry about a thing. Go home and rest.
I need to get back out there and let people know.
What mum can rest peacefully after burying her child?
Trust him.
He always keeps his promise.
Okay.
Thank you.
- Goodbye. - Have a nice day.
She is so brave.
It will be a long and arduous battle.
- Ms Lee. - Yes?
Get me everything you can find on Power King.
Don't filter out anything.
Yes, Sir.
Where are you going?
To the convenience store.
That's right.
I almost forgot.
Gosh.
- Oh my gosh. - Why did you buy so much?
The convenience store was full of them.
This was huge when it first came out. They called it a miracle drink.
Everyone, drink one.
It's been a while.
It tastes good. It's sweet.
- I drank this to diet before. - To diet?
You usually mix this with alcohol.
- Have you tried it? - I've tried it.
You feel great when you drink it,
but once you sober up...
There must be many victims complaining about this.
I printed out a bunch of complaints that I found.
We will now become a human grapevine.
Can you make sense, please?
We need the media on our backs if we're going to blow this up.
Let's collect some of the victims' stories.
I'll search through blogs.
It turns out there's a gathering of victims of Power King.
I'll look into official complaints and suits filed against Power King.
What should I do?
Where do you want to go? Gyms? Bars?
- Go everywhere. - Okay.
- Everyone, drink. - Let's drink.
- Yes. - Drink.
Sir.
Goodness.
Why that...
Hello, guys. Hi. Hi.
Have you ever had Power King?
Do you drink it often?
- I'm not a fan. - No?
Hello. Thanks for your dedication.
Yong Gi!
This isn't the time for that.
Come here.
No way.

Professor Oh Min Chul?
That's me. Who are you?
I'm Joe Deul Ho, a lawyer.
Why does a lawyer want to see me?
You wrote...
an article on this, right?
Wait a minute.
Is this a nutritional supplement?
It has nothing to do with me.
How could it not?
It has three times the caffeine than other drinks.
How is this a nutritional supplement?
I have nothing to say.
How could you not?
A young girl drank this, thinking it was a nutritional supplement.
But she died. Do you still have nothing to say?
Watch what you say!
There was no proof that Power King had anything to do with her death!
Why are you reacting so strongly?
Chairman Jung Geun Moo paid you 50,000 dollars, didn't he?
Should I expose the dirty secret...
between that money and the article you wrote?
Should I?
While drinking this?
Power King was a huge success...
because it had three times the caffeine as other drinks.
Why didn't you mention the risks associated with it?
You must have experimented to see what volume of this...
would be lethal.
Would you have your children drink this?
What do you want from me?
I need you to testify in court.
I can't do that.
You must.
I'm not telling you to lie.
I'm asking you to report the results of your experiment.
This isn't a request.
If you don't come to court,
I'll subpoena you not as a witness, but as a defendant.
Either confess and relieve yourself of the guilt,
or undergo investigation and go to prison.
The choice is yours.
I'm sure Power King will help you make your decision.
Okay.
Hello.
I'll help you.
You must be tired.
Aren't you super tired after doing all this?
You can't have beef soup after a workout like this,
so you drink this, right? Power King.
- Yes. - Have you had this?
- Do your friends drink this, too? - Yes.
How do you feel when you drink this?
- I feel good. And I feel strong. - What else?
You down it? I love downing it, too.
Hello.
Have you ever had Power King?
Yes, I drink that often.
Often? How many a day?
Before eating? After?
Have you ever had any side effects?
Hello, there.
Have one.
It's nice and cool. Hold on.
I get dizzy because the blood rushes to my head.
Dizzy? What about your heart?
Have you had Power King?
Can we talk? Excuse me.
I'm dizzy.
Drink this and energise yourself.
Thanks. Why don't you have it?
I don't drink that.
- Why not? - It's too tiring.
- It's tiring? - Yes.
Why is it tiring?
I'm busy, so...
I'm curious.
Could you elaborate?
Has anyone had adverse side effects to drinking Power King?
I want to try it.
My heart races.
My sister is a doctor, and she said not to drink Power King.
It's like drinking 50 glasses of Americano in one shot.
(Power Blogger Min Ah's Beautiful Life)
(I'm finally reviewing Power King. It's awesome. I lost 4kg in a month)
Who is this?
What? Deul Ho filed another lawsuit?
Yes.
This time, it's against Youngwon Food.
Youngwon Food is Daehwa's subsidiary.
What did they do?
They have a product called Power King.
Power King.
You know the energy drink case, don't you?
A teen girl died recently after drinking that.
The autopsy showed caffeine overdose.
So?
The victim's mother came to us,
but we refused her case.
But...
she went to Joe Deul Ho.
Why didn't you report this to me?
Will this be a problem?
There are more victims than we had anticipated.
I think you'll have to take action under the table.
The mere fact that Joe Deul Ho took on this case...
may upset Chairman Jung.
I'll take on this case.
Forget it. You take it.
He can't handle it alone.
If we lose again, it will be detrimental.
Daehwa has been taking its cases...
to other law firms, one by one.
Can you...
do this job without getting your personal feelings in the way?
It's important to the firm.
Please trust me, Dad.
Fine.
I'll get ready.
Report everything she does...
to me.
- Don't leave anything out. - Yes, Sir.
Hello.
You must be happy...
having students bow to you.
Have you thought it over?
I cannot testify.
Okay, then. Goodbye.
Where is the dean's office?
What's your problem?
What do you mean?
That's what I'd like to ask.
A teenage girl died because of your 50,000-dollar article,
and an older woman collapsed on the street.
How many more must die before you're satisfied?
There isn't much time.
It's tomorrow.
(Court)
I have a call.
Are you handling this case?
I volunteered.
It may become serious.
I know.
That's why I took it.
I won't go lightly.
Don't. Take it all the way.
I won't go easy on you either.
There's more than what you see.
It'll hurt Daehwa...
and Geum San as well.
That's why I'm doing it myself.
I can't lose to you.
Fine. Try me.
Stop pretending to be on the phone. I know you're listening in.
Let's go.
Her name was Han Yoo Ra.
Age, 18.
(Energy drink "Power King", civil trial)
She recently collapsed while at her academy and passed away.
Her cause of death...
was seizure and vomiting induced by caffeine overdose...
and damage to the lungs resulting from the vomiting.
Han Yoo Ra drank this product on a daily basis...
in order to ward off sleep.
The average energy drink...
has 50mg to 70mg of caffeine per serving.
However, Power King's caffeine content...
is 300mg per serving.
The greater the caffeine level,
the better the drinker stays awake.
Thus, when Power King was introduced,
it sold like hot cakes and outsold all the other energy drinks.
Please introduce yourself.
I'm the late Han Yoo Ra's physician.
What was Han Yoo Ra's cause of death?
It was caffeine overdose.
How did you find out that it was caffeine overdose?
We extracted shards that were found to be caffeine in her stomach.
We found a high concentration of caffeine...
in her stomach, blood and urine.
Do people often die of caffeine poisoning...
as Han Yoo Ra did?
There was a patient with a heart condition...
who suffered irregular heartbeat caused by caffeine overdose.
He passed away.
A man in Japan died while working out.
The cause was discovered to be the energy drink.
Do you mean there are several cases in other countries...
wherein people died from intaking too many energy drinks?
That's correct.
Do you mean, if someone has a heart condition,
intaking too much caffeine...
- may be lethal? - That's correct.
What is the suggested daily allowance of caffeine?
It's 400mg.
If you drink two cans of Power King,
it would be 600mg which exceeds 400mg.
That is correct.
Your Honour, please look at this photo.
This drink, which led Han Yoo Ra to her death,
can be found easily in various places in our lives.
Objection.
Counsel assumes Power King was...
the cause of the victim's death.
Sustained.
You said...
caffeine overdose was the cause of Han Yoo Ra's death.
Is the caffeine in the energy drink...
different from the caffeine in coffee?
No, they are the same substance.
The cause of her death was intaking too much caffeine.
That means it can be caffeine from coffee, not the energy drink.
- But the volume... - "Yes" or "No", please.
Yes.
The amount of caffeine in a cup of coffee...
from vending machines is 128mg.
Instant coffee has 74mg.
A commonly bought caffe mocha has 175mg of caffeine.
That is the same as drinking...
two caffe mochas.
Can drinking two caffe mochas...
lead to death?
The girl's death is tragic.
However, was her death...
truly caused by Power King?
Perhaps she had...
a special condition that her mother was unaware of.
Doctor.
What do you think?
I think it is possible.
This isn't right.
No more questions.
- Were you Han Yoo Ra's friend? - Yes.
Did Han Yoo Ra...
drink this often?
She drank 1 or 2 cans on average,
but she drank more during exam week.
Did you see her drink it?
Yes, often.
Do you drink it as well?
All the kids I know drink it.
It sells like crazy during exams.
It sells like crazy.
No more questions.
Counsel, cross-examine the witness.
Among your friends who drank Power King,
did anyone else die of caffeine overdose...
as Han Yoo Ra did?
No. No one.
A teenage girl died because of your 50,000-dollar article,
and an older woman collapsed on the street.
How many more must die before you're satisfied?
This isn't a request.
Either confess and relieve yourself of the guilt,
or undergo investigation and go to prison.
The choice is yours.
Ma'am,
what is a power blogger?
It is a popular blogger with many followers and comments.
I see. You've marketed Power King...
using your blog.
Did you write that article...
you see on the screen yourself?
- Yes. - Did you drink Power King yourself?
No. I did not.
Then why did you post that as if you drank it yourself?
Power King's PR firm paid me...
to write that.
You can call yourself a one-person PR firm.
That's right.
No more questions.
Ma'am.
You've quit marketing Power King, haven't you?
- Yes. - Was it voluntary?
No. I was fired.
Then you must have a grudge against Power King.
Objection.
Counsel is pressuring the witness.
Objection denied.
Please answer the question.
To be honest,
I'm hurt and angry.
If you have no further questions, we will end the witness testimonies.
Just a minute.
Your Honour, just a minute.
Please give me a minute.
One of the witnesses that we had requested...
has just arrived.
Who is it?
Who is he?
He's a college professor who wrote an article on Power King.
Why are you here today?
I came to confess something today.
What is it?
Several years ago, I got a request from Youngwon Food.
It manufactures the energy drink, Power King.
I published a thesis on energy drinks.
Power King,
like other energy drinks,
has caffeine, guarana, taurine...
and a bit of ginseng extract.
I exaggerated as if Power King was a nutritional supplement.
Although Power King has three times...
more caffeine than similar products,
I didn't mention anything about the risk of overdose.
Are you...
blowing the whistle?
Yes, I am.
Ever since I read an article several months ago...
about a teenage girl who died after overdosing on Power King,
I've had qualms about it.
My apologies.
That's all.
Counsel, do you want to cross-examine the witness?
Your Honour,
the witness's testimony can cause enormous social ramification.
I'd like to find out the truth...
at the next pleading.
The plaintiff agrees.
Sustained.
If that's the case,
who would be the ideal witness for the next pleading?
I summon the chairman of Daehwa Group, Jung Geun Moo,
who is the largest shareholder of Youngwon Food.
Youngwon Food is the manufacturer of Power King.
You want to summon Chairman Jung Geun Moo as a witness?
That is correct.
Counsel, do you agree?
- We don't agree. - We agree.
All right.
Chairman Jung Geun Moo will be...
summoned as a witness for the next pleading.
- He's coming out. - He's here.
Is it true that the thesis on Power King was fabricated?
Yes. It was published as if it was a nutritional supplement.
It was falsely published.
Chairman Jung Geun Moo from Daehwa Group is summoned as a witness.
Do you think he will show up?
That is true. Which camera should I look at?
Do I look good on camera?
Chairman Jung, are you watching me right now?
I will tell you a precaution,
no two precautions.
One, don't go overseas for a business trip all of a sudden.
Two, don't pretend to be sick and admit yourself to a hospital.
I hope to see you in good health at the next pleading.
Everyone, Power King is just like...
a private loan.
It blindly borrows the energy of tomorrow to use today.
The important thing is that...
someone can die from drinking it.
I, Joe Deul Ho,
will report Chairman Jung Geun Moo to the prosecutor.
Get Deul Ho to confess and lock him up right away!
The investigation isn't over yet.
Why not?
I provided you with everything! Yes, you can't handle anything!
There's one thing you don't know.
All this time,
I wasn't being manipulated by Chairman Jung.
I was the one who manipulated him.
What was that?
How could you accept to summon Chairman Jung as a witness?
It was unavoidable.
How was that unavoidable?
We could have avoided it.
Didn't you see him speak in front of the reporters?
Even if we rejected,
he would've manipulated the media to get his way.
We'd end up accepting it anyway.
We're better off accepting it if we'll have to do it at some point.
Shouldn't we...
come up with a solution instead of quibbling?
Don't you have other intentions?
I think it's strange that you wanted to be on this case so badly.
Sir, Joe Deul Ho reported Chairman Jung to the prosecution.
- What? - A professor blew the whistle...
regarding the ingredients of Power King at court today.
With that testimony, Deul Ho brought criminal charges against him.
That punk!
I will investigate...
this case.
I need to investigate this.
I know your position better than anyone else.
Please leave it up to me.
I beg you.
Will Chairman Jung resist the investigation of the prosecution?
What do you think?
Think carefully. Put yourself in his shoes.
What do you think he will do?
He will do anything and everything to avoid it.
I think so, too.
Our job will be to make him undergo an investigation.
We'll have to do well.
We must be thorough and exact.
Since when were you this reckless?
Was I ever reckless?
I guess somewhere around middle school or high school.
I think you were reckless when you were born.
I guess you could say that. I was like this since I was born.
We are all born recklessly from the very beginning.
That is not our choice.
We are born because of our parents.
- He's here! - Chairman Jung!
Record him.
- Turn the camera on. - Get out of the way.
- Chairman Jung! - Chairman Jung!
What do you think about the situation you're in?
Is it true that the thesis on Power King was fabricated?
- Was the money worth it? - Say something.
- Don't avoid us. - Say a few words, please.
- Did you really bribe people? - Is it really true?
What on earth are you all doing?
Is this a market?
Chairman Jung!
Joe Deul Ho, that punk.
He's totally insane.
There is no way...
that the prosecution will summon you.
Why isn't Mr Shin here yet?
I called him several times,
but he kept saying that he's in a meeting.
A meeting? What meeting?
Does he not know how serious this is?
I'm sure he'll call.
Besides,
why did Ms Jang accept when Joe Deul Ho summoned me as a witness?
Is she in her right mind?
Because of the reporters outside,
she couldn't avoid it.
We will be at a disadvantage if we turn against the public.
I don't care about what the public thinks.
Do I seriously have to appear in court...
and argue with Joe Deul Ho?
What is wrong with you?
I'm really not happy with Geum San lately.
I'm sorry.
Mr Jang, we have to win this case no matter what.
Whether we bribe the judge or tamper with evidence,
we have to win this case!
The thing is...
that it's a very sensitive matter.
We must consider the public opinion.
Nonetheless, I will try every possible means...
to win this case.
Joe Deul Ho, that punk.
Shouldn't we get rid of him?
It's too risky since he's at the centre of attention right now.
Joe Deul Ho knows that. That's why he's speaking in public.
My goodness, Joe Deul Ho.
Isn't Mr Shin picking up his phone yet?
No, he's not picking up the phone.
Where is that meeting?
Tell him I'm on my way now.
- Chairman Jung. - Chairman Jung.
- Calm yourself down. - Sir.
(Investigation Report)
Oh my goodness.
There are so many comments.
Hello.
Mr Joe. Did you see the comments online?
There are so many comments.
People are boycotting Power King.
I hear you. Calm down.
If this continues, Chairman Jung will have to appear in court, right?
We don't know about that yet. Go to bed.
Come on. I can be happy about it at least for today.
All right then. Good night.
Who keeps calling?
(Shin Young Il)
Sit down.
I thought you'd be more honest...
if we spoke over some drinks.
Was I ever...
dishonest with you?
You wouldn't press charges against Chairman Jung...
if all you had up your sleeve was the fact...
that the college professor had lied.
You know we very well.
What is it?
What do you have?
If I tell you,
it'll totally kill your buzz.
Tell me.
The Jung Geun Moo List.
The slush fund ledger.
What?
Don't tell me you thought I was dumb enough to really burn it.
Didn't I tell you...
that I'd get it some day?
- You... - I have...
a favour to ask.
You need to help me.
A lawyer defends.
Investigations are the prosecutor's role.
The entire nation will be in an uproar soon.
You shouldn't mess with food that people eat.
If you want to become the next minister,
you should bring in...
Chairman Jung and conduct a thorough investigation.
Let me know if you need my cooperation.
I'll oblige whenever you want.
I don't like to drink.
I like to sing.
Evil corporation, Daehwa Group...
lives on killing lives! It must be destroyed!
- It must be destroyed! - It must be destroyed!
Get on your knees and apologise to the people!
- Apologise! - Apologise!
Evil corporation, Daehwa Group lives on killing lives!
It must be destroyed!
- It must be destroyed! - It must be destroyed!
- This has bad side effects. - It does?
Those jerks.
They all took my money.
How dare they hide from me now?
Sir.
I got through to Mr Baek.
Hello, Mr Baek.
I was searching desperately for you.
Mr Baek. Are you free for dinner tonight?
Sure. That'll work.
Let's grab a drink as well.
Tonight? Okay.
Congratulations on becoming a congressman...
for three consecutive terms, notwithstanding the scandals.
It must have cost quite a sum to hide the corruption.
Who are you?
Last year, on June 17, at the Gimpo toll gate,
you received 200,000 dollars stuffed into a fruit box...
from the toll gate attendant, correct?
Where did you hear such nonsense?
I saw it myself.
Who are you?
Me? I'm Superman.
The person who saw Chairman Jung Geun Moo's slush fund list.
You're going to eat with Chairman Jung?
No, no, no, no.
A drink? Even more so. No, no, no, no.
I will...
arrest Chairman Jung.
Please let me.
This is...
an opportunity for you.
I can turn this into an opportunity.
Can you finish it well?
I know I can.
Things may get out of control.
It may seem like a double-edged sword,
but we're the ones wielding the sword.
And Father,
you must sever ties with that dirty Chairman Jung...
as soon as possible.
Yes. Yes. Sir.
Mr Baek's assistant just called.
He had to cancel dinner.
What? Why?
Chairman Jung!
How have you been?
You. You punk!
You should greet the person you framed for murder more warmly.
What was that?
Why don't you...
let me join you for dinner? I'm hungry.
I see.
You know what this is, don't you?
I have another one.
You made a lot of money from selling these, didn't you?
You need to come to court and tell everyone...
how you made so much money from selling rubbish like this.
You... You need to stop messing with me.
I need to mess around...
for the world to see the light.
This made you a lot of money, right?
You'll have to come to court,
so don't bother calling around for help.
That's what I wanted to say.
I almost forgot.
You'll become lonelier and lonelier.
Sorry about that.
I cancelled your dinner plans...
with Mr Baek.
You rat!
Get him!
You punk!
