Episode 11
Kang Cho Hee
He's not picking up.
I think he caught on and took off.
Look through his phone call history, card transactions, everything. If that doesn't work, put him on the wanted list.
What do you mean the wanted list? What did my brother do wrong?
Lawyer Lee. You have a guest waiting.
Who? I don't have any appointments.
This is his first time here. The director said to meet him.
Is that so?
I'm sorry. If you could just wait a moment.
- Is this a pro bono case? - No.
Or have I been pushed down from the core team? Because I messed up a little bit on the Park Joon Mo case?
- There's no way. - Then why in the world would he give a client like that to—
- Just try talking to him first. I'm sure there's a reason why the director entrusted him to you.
Okay.
Hello. I'm Lawyer Lee Yoo Beom. Your name?
I'm Kang Dae Hee.
I asked to meet with a prosecutor-turned-lawyer, and they told me to come here.
Yes, that's right. Take a seat.
However, just because I meet with a client doesn't mean I'll take on his case.
I need to listen first then I'll decide if I can take on the case...
Excuse me.
I can give you how much you want for money.
When I bet, I don't look at the pot.
I look at the probability.
So tell me, what do you need help with?
I just feel so wronged.
A while ago, I caused a big traffic accident.
I lost my younger brother because of it.
But they're saying that I caused this accident on purpose, saying that I was after the insurance money.
They've even come after me with a warrant...
Does it say on the warrant that you killed your brother on purpose?
No, no... I haven't been able to see the warrant yet because I ran away before they were able to find me.
So you're saying that you don't even know what the warrant says but you ran away because of what you think it says?
- No, no it's not tha— - Wow. This.
If I were a prosecutor, that would have been a big slip-up,
but don't worry. I'm a lawyer now and because of my professional responsibility as a lawyer,
no matter what you say here, I can't reveal that, ever.
If you want to live, lie in front of the prosecutor. Tell me honestly what you want.
You lying to me is like asking me to fill a bottomless pot with water.
I mean...
I need to know where the hole is so that I can patch it and choose to fill it with water or not.
Did you kill your younger brother?
Yes.
What I want from you
is to get me the verdict of "not guilty" at the trial.
According to National Weather Service, this September will be the same as or slightly warmer than the usual average temperature in the past.
It is anticipated that foliage will turn color a little later.
A murder case where someone killed his own siblings over insurance—
When does mine start?
It's starting. It's starting.
Here is Nam Hong Joo's report.
On the 6th, Hangang District's Prosecutor's Office of Seoul,
during the final hearing of Mr. Kang,
a 37-year old whom they arrested on charges of murder and fraud,
demanded life imprisonment.
Mr. Kang, who since June of 2015 until February of this year,
placed life insurance policies under his brother and sister's names
in order to receive insurance payouts, murdered both his siblings.
This was SBC News's Nam Hong Joo.
It's not the Prosecutors' Office but Prosecutor Jeong Jae Chan of Hangang Prosecutors' Office who did it.
So? Does it feel unfair?
Not unfair, it's just too bad some details were left out.
If you thought it was unfair, I was going to comfort you, but if not, never mind.
Now that I think about it, I think it's a bit unfair.
Tell me. What's so unfair?
What's so unfair?
I asked you. What's so unfair?
What is this?
Wh-What? You? Wh-Why are you lying in my bed?
I came in to wake you up, and you pulled me, saying it was unfair. You pulled my arm!
You should have broken free! Why are you such an easy pushover while you're a male punk?
Eww, disgusting. What was I even saying?
Right? You don't even know what you're saying either.
Things like bearing shame, swindler calling out fraud, pretending not to know comes to mind all of a sudden, right?
- Shut up! - What about breakfast? Cereal? Or should I make ramyun?
- Why are you offering to make breakfast again? - Because we might be indebted to you again.
Just in case something like this happens again, please protect my daughter.
Nevermind that. We're going to eat breakfast at our front-door neighbor's place from now on.
From now on? Every day?
The front-door neighbor ahjumma said she would make breakfast for us every morning.
Aigoo. That's great.
Wow. That house's breakfast is art.
You're saying that like you've eaten it before.
I have.
- When? Without me? - Yeah. Last time. Without you.
I don't like you today for many different reasons. Ching!
Hey, don't do that.
- Wolverine! - Ah, don't do it! For real! I don't like it!
Mom! Mom, the razor. Where's the razor?
Mom, why do you think my leg hairs are like this?
How can my leg hairs become so abundant in just a day?
If the rice plants grow at this rate, double or triple cropping can be possible. My armpit hairs—
Oh... Hong Joo. Say hi.
From now on, we're going to be eating breakfast with our front-door neighbors.
Also, your armpit... I mean, the razor is next to the shampoo, so look carefully.
Mmm. Got it.
It's good you came.
Hong Joo, you're dewy today.
I don't have eyebrows. Half of them are missing. I'm Mona Lisa.
Ahhh, why couldn't just half of you have grown as eyebrow hairs.
Enjoy!
Our Hong Joo's personality is so clean and detailed that
even if there is one leg hair left, even just one, she can't leave for the day.
Okay.
Do you eat like this every morning?
Hey Hyung, this is just a common meal. Before this, she has prepared a "five spice sliced steamed pork" dish.
The shabu shabu you made before was seriously the best!
Good! I'll try to cook it again next time.
Welcome! Welcome!
Mom, you should have told me in advance that there was going to be guests.
I did tell you but I guess since you turned up your music so loud, you didn't hear.
It's fine. Isn't everyone disheveled like our Hong Joo when they're at home?
- No, I'm not as bad as her. - Of course.
What a liar. He doesn't even look like a human at home...
I know too what your brother looks like at home.
- You saw?- How do you know?
I have already seen your household scenery in my dreams. A lot!
You don't wash your hair for days and consider that greasy hair as waxed hair so you just go work with it, right?
- That's right! - No, no.
I'm scared that lice will come out of his hair.
His socks are in a ball, pants are splayed, and he never puts the clothes he takes off in the washer, right?
Why do you use the bathroom with the door open?
That's right. That's it! And after he does his business,
- he doesn't even flush!- He doesn't even flush!
Amazing! How do you know all that from dreams?
Lately, I often dream about your brother.
I keep seeing the state of your house without meaning to.
Who's going to clean this up? Who? Who? Who?
Just leave me alone.
- Ouch! - Hey.
People who will become prosecutors are just...
It's so bad that it's almost a shame to see alone. How dare you put up a front?
I've been holding it back because you might lose face, but should I say more?
- Look here Nam Hong Joo! - What?!
I acknowledge it. Let's stop! Seriously.
Please eat. Eat.
Just do all the things as usual since I've already seen it all anyway.
Otherwise, if you suddenly become a clean freak
your brother will say that you're acting out of place.
Are you upset?
Why? Isn't that your bus? Aren't you getting on?
I am not.
Why?
Because I have to take you to work.
Be clingy, ask me to take you to work and to protect you. I'll try to.
I mean, if that makes you feel secure, I'll try it.
♫ I’ve come a long way to see you ♫
You were serious. You were really serious.
I told you I am serious.
♫ I fly for you ♫
♫ Even if I close my eyes in order to not show you my heart ♫
♫ You come closer ♫
Oh! The bus is here. Let's get on.
♫ Because I love you boy ♫
What are you doing? You're going to be late.♫ Because I love you boy ♫
♫ Come closer to my side ♫
♫ Because I need you boy ♫
♫ I miss you even in my dreams ♫
♫ Remember I love you boy ♫
♫ Even if you say we can never meet again ♫
♫ Because I love you boy ♫
♫ Because I love you boy I love you ♫
#6 Blind People's City
Why are you giving me two whole boxes of business cards?
While you were gone for a year,
all staff at the Han River police station and Han River District Prosecutor's Office have completely been changed.
If you go around and introduce yourself to everyone, the two boxes won't be enough.
Okay!
This is the real beginning, huh?
When you select the cases to report, I'm going to watch you closely.
At the police, prosecution office, fire department, and even patrol division,
what they investigate right now, and what their current issues are,
you better have a grasp on everything. Got it?
Even the patrol division?
You don't like it?
No, I like it so much.
I feel rejuvenated because it feels just like the old days.
Should I report back to you every 2 hours like I did when I was an intern?
Oh, that's even better.
Oh my gosh. I lost. My loose lip...
Welco—
Hello! We came again!
Our Hong Joo isn't here though.
I didn't come for Hong Joo. I came to eat pork belly.
I skipped breakfast, so I need to at least eat some pork belly in order for me to survive the day.
Of course, and we don't need things like a cash receipt.
As men, not being stingy, we can't ask a cash receipt or a have a coupon stamped for a visit.
We don't do such things at all. We've done these things.
Why is asking for your cash receipts being stingy?
When police should be the role models in showing fair trade, is it right for you to say that?
Woo Tak, what should I do? It looks like I made another mistake.
Sunbae-nim, please!

Han Woo Tak! I mean Officer Han we see each other here too!
What brought you here?
Do you two know each other?
You... did you get a job?
No! I was reinstated!
With only one life you can't just die pretty, you have to work.
SBC journalist. You were a journalist?
Wow! I'm sorry I didn't know that.
What is the relationship between those two?
What relationship? They have absolutely no—
I have been to your store today.
Is it that they don't have an relationship or that they do?
Hey! Isn't there anything good going on in your station?
I need to report back to the station and I've got nothing.
Oh no! What to do? Something to report! Something to report!
Yes! This is Han River Line Nam Hong Joo.
Yes, right now I am at Sang Gu District. Yes, my report?
Cat Street Murder Case.
Yes, they said that there was a cat street murder case.
- It's a serial murder case. - Yes, it's said to be a serial murder case.
Up to now, the number of dead cats is...
- About 100 cats.- 100 Cats?
They said it's over 100 cats. Yes, Sunbae.
Yes, Sunbae. I understand! Okay. Okay!
- Chief Prosecutor, I'm here. - Yes, come in.
Hello.
- I don't see Pro (Prosecutor) Sin.- Pro Sin went to an insurance murder trial.
Insurance murder case?
Oh! This case has something to do with you.
- With me?- Yeah! That night that I took over your overnight shift.
Back then, there was a vehicular homicide incident so we stepped out.
Yes I know.
But it wasn't just your average car crash.
Shall we get an autopsy done?
No. No you can't do an autopsy.
His old brother refused the autopsy so vehemently.
So I ordered the corpse to be handed to the bereaved without any choice.
But after we investigated, the old brother guy had an insurance policy on his brother worth 2.7 billion won.
After hearing that, I got goosebumps! He had cried so sadly, you know.
But he's the one who killed him yet cried like that.
He must have acted wholeheartedly in order to receive 2.7 billion.
No matter how much money's on the line, how could he murder someone? His own brother, nonetheless?
Mr. Kang put a life insurance policy under his brother and sister's names,
and in order to receive the insurance payout, murdered both his siblings.
- By any chance, is the defendant's last name Kang? - Yes.
How do you know that? You're right, his name is Kang Dae Hee.
Is it a case where he killed both his younger brother and sister?
No, he only killed his younger brother and the younger sister is alive.
- Did you just say the younger sister is alive? - Yeah.
But how did you know that Kang Dae Hee has a younger sister?
Did you see the record?
No, I just got confused.
This case... Is there a chance there will be a not guilty verdict?
Nonsense. This case has already gone through investigation and we already received the confession.
It's not even a denied case but already a confessed case, then why is this case brought to the trial?
The defendant's lawyer is Lee Yoo Beom.
Pro Sin! Miss Hee Soo!
Senior.
You must've prepared a lot for trial.
Of course. I did a lot.
In this kind of instance, you should say, "Not really," as a courtesy to me.
I'll be going against you. Preparing a lot is the courteous thing to do.
The judicial panel at today's trial is a bit different. Choose one, cola?
I know, right? The chief judge is a woman and the judge at the left seat is also a woman.
I think it's the first time I've seen it—a panel with two women judges.
It bothers me a little bit, but hopefully, it won't affect a fair ruling, right?
What makes you be bothered?
Pardon?
Having women judges in the panel.
Which part of that bothers you like that?
Ah, are you... the Honorable Judge Kim Joo Young?
Nice to meet you.
No, rather than bothering me, it was just a bit different.
I'm so used to seeing all-male judge panels.
I know, right?
When it was a judge panel filled with men, you never talked about fairness.
But why do you mention fairness when it's a judge panel with women?
A judge panel with all men, rather than our panel, tends to go along with the groupthink, don't you think so?
I really don't get it.
If it's not fair that the judge panel is filled with two women,
it's more of an issue when it's all filled with three men.
What are you going to do, Lawyer Lee? It seems like you've already caught the judge's eye.
I know, right? Gosh, it looks like I'm going to be crushed by Pro Sin today.
Gosh, that's that and this is this.
Court In Session
- You said when you bet, you look at the odds, right? - Yes.
What are the odds?
About 99:1?
- Are we the 1? - All rise!
Stand tall, because we're the 99.
Of course it's a 99% guilty verdict!
And I only took off 1% because Lawyer Lee is on it.
It's 100% in reality.
So there's truly no chance that it'll be a not guilty verdict, right?
What's with you? You're bringing bad luck.
Do you have something that's bothering you?
It's the feeling of knocking on stone when crossing on stepping-stones.
You are not knocking on stone but on my heart
when you're crossing alone.
Hey, if we get a not guilty verdict, I'm going to be in huge trouble.
I've been feeling so uncomfortable about the fact that we didn't do an autopsy after the accident.
You're knocking on me with your sigh!
- We can do it. - We can do it.
Prosecutor, state your reasons for indictment.
Yes, Your Honor.
From June 2015, defendant Kang Dae Hee enrolled his brother, Kang Byeong Hee, as the insured.
With his name as the beneficiary, he has registered 31 insurance policies.
and paid more than $4000 a month for insurance policy premiums.
Kang Byeong Hee
As his financial situation was bad due to the failure of his stock investments,
according to the contract of the insurance policy that insured the victim, Kang Byeong Hee,
he decided to kill the victim in order to receive the benefits by disguising it as an accident.
On March 28th, 9 PM, the defendant,
while driving his brother Kang Byeong Hee home,
killed the victim as he crashed his car into the Do Moon tunnel on purpose.
And to the seven insurance companies including Chang Hae Life Insurance,
the defendant falsely reported that the accident happened.
and received a total of 2.7 billion.
Therefore, I indicted Defendant Kang Dae Hee on a charge of murder according to Criminal Article 250,
and on charges of fraud according to Criminal Act article 347-1.
Lawyer, do you accept the charges against the defendant?
No. We reject all accusations.
The defendant pleads not guilty.
Timing and Subtitles brought by The Dream Team @ Viki
Kang Dae Hee is pleading not guilty?
Yes. I was worried that he would plead guilty and say that he's being repentant, but this works out for the better.
I can demand a maximum sentence without consideration of an exceptional situation.
Lee Yoo Beom is being reckless this time.
Why did he overturn a case that's already been confessed?
Uh, don't you think Lee Yoo Beom caused a confession on purpose?
If a person confesses, the investigators aren't as thorough in their search.
What's wrong with you, Pro Jeong?
You were like this last time. Why do you keep flapping your mouth?
I'm not sure... it seems like a plausible flapping of the mouth.
It could be that confession was a tactic.
Cause the investigation to be shabby and then overturn it during trial.
What's wrong with you, Sunbae?
Put down your... heart...
Chief! Why are you praying alone?
From now on, let's pray on our own.
And Prosecutor Sin, the newbie has a point, so don't look down on it.
Yes, I understand.
Prosecutor Jeong, giving me warning on my trials—I'm so thankful for it.
I thought that kind of warning was only going to come from prosecutors with over 20 years of experience.
But for you with a few months of experience,
how is it possible to give me such an experienced warning?
I want to learn too.
That's a compliment, right?
Compliment my butt, she's telling me to screw off!
Are you a twisted donut? Why are you so twisted?
She must really want to learn.
She meant, "You're crossing the line. Stop trying to talk glibly and flippantly."
How come you don't understand what's between the lines?
What level are you in for language?
Ah gosh, Bro, why are you mad at me? Ugh, I just can't live!
I've been dreaming about your brother very often these days.
Without meaning to, I keep seeing it... the scenery of your household.
So that's right... My Seung Won has not been able to live because of me.
What's with you all of a sudden? Is there someone here?
Please lift your feet, Won. I need to clean beneath them.
What's with your hair? You usually have hobo hair at home.
- Huh? You even have on BB cream. - No, I don't.
I don't think so... You do! Why do you have BB cream on at home?
Is this perhaps because of Hong Joo's dreams?
It's not, so be quiet, you punk!
I'm right.
That's why, unlike you, you're cleaning and even wearing good clothes.
Wow, you're really behaving out of place in many ways.
Just do all the things as usual since I've already seen it all anyway.
Otherwise, if you suddenly become a clean freak, your brother will say that you're acting out of place.
She's even seen this already.
She's a total human CCTV.
I'm going crazy!
Why are you like this? You're scary.
I'm dizzy, really.
Sangbu-dong's stray cat serial killing case.
How is this coming along?
I've found out that it started out 1-2 a month,
but now it's gradually increased,
so at this point, there have been more than 100 cat deaths.
Hey, then what about its culprit?
It's said that all of the stray cats died from cyanide poison without any trauma.
The police are investigating, and think that it's caused by one person.
Keep on it until they catch the culprit.
Gosh, why would you let me follow this?
This is something you should report to the show, "Animal Farm."
Why not? I think this will be a good story to make an issue.
When a serial killer first starts out, there are a few red flags,
and among one of them is the killing of small animals.
It's basically similar to practicing the ultimate kill.
It's a bastard that's already killed 100 cats.
What kind of person the culprit is, what kind of character he has,
am I the only one who's curious about this?
No, no. I'm curious too!
This makes sense.
Why are you like this? I want to investigate a person instead of cats too.
Jae Chan...
if you happened to see this in your dream...
Why would Kang Dae Hee...
