My promotion is retracted?
Ha Yeon.
I don't know what President Park heard,
but he even wants a lawsuit. Geun Sik went over to calm him down.
If he resolves this,
kneel down and thank him later.
I'll do that.
Then there's no problem with my promotion.
It's not like we'll go out of business...
for losing a lousy client.
Do you think we won't?
There are millions of law firms and lawyers who are former prosecutors.
Corporations are now establishing their own legal teams.
That's the industry's situation.
And if you manage to lose our biggest client,
how can I promote you as my senior partner?
What do you reckon other partners would think?
Is what other partners think that important to you, Ms. Kang?
No, what's more important than that is Kang and Ham.
If you were a senior partner, it's not just you who gets fired.
Our entire law firm would've been indicted.
Why did you have to make up that lie?
A simple mistake can bring us down to the ground,
and a tiny crack can bring down a whole building.
Have you already forgotten how we...
got this far?
I will not allow any lies or leg-pulling from now on.
If you ever present me with such a situation again,
I am going to make you stand in front of a judge myself.
(If you have a chance to throw a die, throw it without hesitating.)
(The moment you throw it, you'll advance at least one square.)
What? I'm fired?
How can you fire me on my first day of work?
Is this some kind of a test?
No.
I'm standing on the edge of a knife.
And if anyone finds out that you're seriously unqualified...
and that you aren't even a lawyer,
that knife will cut right through my stomach.
It's always the same.
It's always like this.
You're all the same too.
The problem isn't me. It's that you...
I'm glad that you realized it now.
But still,
I was a little hopeful.
I thought you would be different.
I thought an opportunity came to me.
No, you were just dreaming,
and I made a small mistake. That's all. So...
I don't know what that knife is,
but please reconsider.
I'll make sure I don't let the knife stab you because of me.
I'll make sure I prove that it wasn't a mistake...
No.
I thought you would become quite a weapon at that time.
But now that I'm on the edge of a knife,
all I can think of is that you're a weakness that I shouldn't have.
It was a mistake.
You're on the edge of a knife?
Then what about me?
I'm standing on the edge of a cliff. If you push me off,
it's like you're saying I should shut up and die.
Then what? Will you hold onto me and fall down together?
- How? - I have a lot of ways to do that.
Have you already forgotten...
what I'm like?
Have you already forgotten what I'm like?
How can I?
But what can you do at this point?
Approve my promotion as you planned.
If you don't,
I'm going to go work for Kim and Jo or Taeyang immediately.
And of course, I'm taking all of my clients' files.
Let's see.
Taeyang is a bit far from here,
but Kim and Jo is about five minutes away on foot.
Bad news.
Forget about Kim and Jo.
You'll get bombarded with phone calls...
from the police, the prosecution,
and the disciplinary committee of the bar association...
even before you cross that crosswalk right out front.
Forget about defamation and blackmailing.
You'll be charged for dealing drugs.
Will you be all right?
We'll see if I'll be okay when we're in the court.
But before that,
you're the one who took cover for me...
in front of those detectives and got me to this point...
by giving me a job.
In the end...
In the end, you were there with me,
and you've abetted what I did there.
No matter where I end up,
the court or the disciplinary committee,
you'll be standing there next to me.
You're too upset to take the blame by yourself,
so you want to take me down with you?
Why not?
You might end up hitting rock bottom.
I'm very used to sitting at rock bottom.
And if we're going down together, that's nothing.
That's nothing.
Have you already forgotten how we came this far?
Going down together?
No way, Ms. Kang.
I'm saying that we should live together.
Are you blackmailing me?
I'm not blackmailing. I'm desperate for this opportunity.
Okay. I will approve your promotion.
But don't think for a moment that I fell for your bluffing.
Call it making a deal or making a threat, whatever it is.
You forced me to make the worst move without creating a conflict.
Good.
You passed.
However, you have six months of compulsory training.
You need to live a day like it's 48 hours...
and make sure you're qualified to take the bar exam.
Don't worry about money.
Pardon?
Why? Can't you do that?
Then do you plan on continuing...
to play this con game under my name?
No.
I'll do it.
I will.
Of course.
Now, what are your terms, Ms. Kang?
How did you know I had terms?
Come on, it's you.
I'll be asking too much of you to come to an agreement with no terms.
First, President Park's case.
Resolve the case and make sure you cause no damage.
Second,
instead of President Park, bring Assemblyman Cho...
as one of our clients within this week.
No problem. Is that all?
No, one more.
It's a pro bono case.
(Pro bono case: A public service case)
Is it necessary for me to take this?
All or nothing.
If you don't want to,
I'll see you at the court.
Ha Yeon.
Pro bono cases are very important for the image of our law firm.
I know.
That's why I made him...
I mean, I brought in the scholarship.
No, this is more important than that.
It's to cultivate a lawyer's character.
And especially for a lawyer...
who got too proud, thinking that he can read people's minds,
and could not read what his client actually wanted.
Who says I couldn't read him?
It's just that he got in the way of my work.
Then this time, prove yourself.
This is your first case.
My first case?
What is it?
A pro bono. Sexual harassment at work, followed by unfair dismissal.
Do you know what a pro bono is?
It's donating one's talent for the sake of public interest.
At a law firm, it's defending a public interest case.
Good.
It's a secret that I'm giving you this case.
Don't ever let Ms. Kang catch you.
And...
what's wrong with your suit?
What's wrong with it?
A suit is like an armor to an attorney.
It shows their determination.
When a soldier goes to war...
When a soldier goes to war, what matters isn't his armor.
It's his sword.
What matters is that a trial is a battle...
where both sides end up losing unnecessary blood.
So there should be no fight in the first place.
Rule number one.
If possible, try your best not to take things to court.
Don't take things to court. Okay.
Get yourself a suit,
and use it for whatever you need for the time being.
Okay.
I won't allow any mistakes.
Okay.
Ms. Hong, who's in charge of the newcomer's orientation?
My gosh.
Come in.
Hi, I'm Go Yeon Woo.
Nice to meet you. I'm Kim Gina,
a paralegal.
A paralegal?
Does that mean...
you're my secretary?
Are you deaf...
or are you dumb?
I just told you that I'm a paralegal.
You have an unfair point of view.
You're vulgar enough to think all women...
who aren't attorneys would naturally be secretaries.
And you're nasty enough to think all secretaries...
would have some kind of fling with attorneys.
That's not it.
I thought something was on your shirt.
New associates always tend to have some kind of misconception.
But this place is like an army.
Let's say you just got commissioned...
as a second lieutenant.
That makes me a noncommissioned officer who's been through...
all sorts of stuff for three years.
It seems like everyone's talking about war.
Of course. This place is a battlefield.
You went to the army, right?
Did you serve as a judge advocate?
I got exempted.
Why?
Is there something wrong with you?
Well,
there are a lot of wrong things with me.
Don't tell me you have biased thoughts...
about men who didn't serve in the army.
Don't ask me anything. I know you heard everything.
You knew?
But I just want to ask you why.
Let alone graduating from a prestigious university,
he doesn't even have a license to practice law.
There's only one answer to what's going on right now.
Is he your secret son?
How long have you worked with me?
14 years, including the years you used to work as a prosecutor.
And you still don't know?
I'm saying this because I know you better than anyone else.
You've been with thousands of women for the past...
I'm busy. Get out of here.
- So he is your son. - Come on.
I'm just kidding.
But it does seem like a risky move in this situation.
By the way,
why did you really hire him?
How scary.
This is where the first year associates work.
Are you always so distracted?
Please focus.
That just happened because of my carelessness, right?
What other reason would it be?
Well, maybe...
you did it on purpose.
Whatever.
Here. This is your cubicle.
Basement 1 and 2 are reference rooms.
The 3rd, 4th, and 5th floor are for associates.
The 6th and 7th floor...
Aren't you going to write it down?
What?
Why aren't you taking a memo?
The 6th and 7th floor are for partners.
The 8th floor is for senior partners.
The 9th floor has meeting rooms. The 10th floor is for VIP clients.
The 11th and 12th floor have VVIP lounges. Am I correct?
Joseong Group doesn't even have a legal team.
How can President Park be suing us when he hasn't even met an attorney?
Okay.
Geun Sik, I heard you went golfing with President Park.
An incompetent fortune teller can ruin someone's life.
And an idiot is capable of ruining his family.
You made a mess by being way too confident...
about yourself.
We managed to dodge a bullet,
but I'm not sure about what will happen to your license.
The fact that he's talking about prosecutors and indictment...
when he hasn't even hired an attorney yet...
only means that someone from our firm...
leaked information to President Park.
Someone who knows the facts...
and has a grudge against me. I wonder who that could be.
What?
Are you accusing me of leaking information?
Leaking inside information is what our firm hates the most.
And the guy who leaked the information...
loves our firm more than his own life.
So whose side should I choose?
Our firm or that guy?
It's true that you lied. I only...
Do you have evidence?
Let's say I find evidence and prove you guilty.
Will you be able to handle Ms. Kang's disappointment?
There's no need to thank me.
"Forget about your enemy,"
"but never forget a kind gesture."
You better not forget what I'm doing for you.
Meanwhile,
I'll forget what you did to me.
How dare he...
mess with my family?
Stop right there!
Stop!
Stop right there!
(Cheol Soon)
President Park doesn't have...
much on him. Maybe it's because he's going to be dismissed soon.
Really?
But he does have a son...
who loves drinking and doing drugs.
His son got himself in trouble numerous times,
and President Park had to use...
all his connections to save him from going to prison three times.
These days, he seems to be partying every night at a club.
And it's obvious what he does there.
What about Assemblyman Cho?
I don't think he'll be much of a problem.
He's an elder member of Shillak Church.
And his dream is to become the leading elder there.
The leading elder of Shillak Church?
It's a huge church,
and the leading elder...
is more powerful than a congressman or a minister.
The church I go to is still being maintained on rent...
because we can't even gather 5,000 dollars a month.
You go to church?
What? Does it not suit my character?
It does suit your character.
I didn't know you went to my church.
I'm thinking I'll start attending this church...
if you become the leading elder.
Leading elder? Who told you...
Anyway, what brings you here?
While I was wondering how I could...
help you with your church business,
I found an excellent card.
Board Chairman Jung of Yurim Hospital is...
also going for the leading elder position.
This is financial statements of his hospital and foundation.
Whoever knows how to read a ledger...
would know this has been tampered...
big time.
Is this how you always do your business?
Or is this some kind of...
a trick?
It's not a trick, it's magic.
Anyway, it doesn't look like that card would do much...
to shake up the game today.
There is no need for that.
As soon as he sees our card,
he'll fold and leave the game.
You just need to smile a little.
- He should be the next elder. - Of course.
Otherwise...
- We'll... - Excuse me.
Sure.
Have Kang and Ham be our legal adviser.
Take care of it now.
Are you happy?
Are you Kim Mi Sook?
I'm with Kang and Ham Law Firm.
Are you an intern?
Pardon?
Yes, I'm a probationary associate.
I know you're skeptical, but please tell me everything.
If I do, can you solve the problem?
Solve the problem?
Listening intently...
You know, my hearing is very good.
I'm pretty smart too.
I'd be better than nothing.
Let's finish this up quickly and talk.
This is as important to me...
as it is to you.
The president interviewed me for a secretary position.
Then he told me to start working right away.
That was President Yoo Chang Jung of Geumjeong Digitech.
Yes.
After one week, he started to make conversations...
that made me uncomfortable.
I couldn't stand it anymore, so I made a complaint.
One day, they said I was going to be transferred...
and made me sit facing a wall.
They didn't give me any work, so I thought...
I'd make myself useful by cleaning a bathroom.
They fired me immediately,
saying I was absent without leave.
What about other employees?
Didn't anyone help you?
No. It was as if they were all in on it.
Everyone said,
"She was divorced for a reason."
"She tried to seduce him from the start."
"She's a gold digger."
I didn't want to...
hear that anymore, so I gave up on suing them.
But you know what Hee Soo said to me?
Is Hee Soo your daughter?
"Mom, the world has changed."
"Women can be confident and free now."
Forget it.
He went MIA so he could have it all to himself.
Do you think he would've hidden it in his house?
- Who is Se Hee? - Pardon?
Is she your girlfriend?
No...
No, she isn't.
She has nothing to do with me.
But your face says otherwise.
(Kang and Ham)
Kang and Ham...
Is it you, Yeon Woo?
Yes.
I'm going to sleep here tonight.
You should go sleep at home.
I can stay here alone.
By the way, it's really nice here.
You can stay here without worrying about anything.
I got a really good job.
Grandma, are you asleep?
What?
Maybe it's because it's too quiet here.
I keep falling asleep.
Did you say something?
I said I got a job at a really big company.
You got a job.
I see.
That's nice.
That's really nice.
I knew you'd turn out well.
Aren't you going to ask me what kind of work I do?
I'm sorry, Grandma.
When I become a real lawyer,
I'll tell you everything then.
How's the pro bono case going?
You mean, Kim Mi Sook?
She looks like a good person. Her...
A good person?
What if she's a bad person? Won't you defend her?
Well, after listening to her story...
Story or what not, don't look at the person.
Look at the case only.
The moment you empathize with the client, you make a mistake.
A mistake leads to a case lost.
Rule number two.
Only think about winning.
Isn't it better to empathize with the client and win too?
You said you read people.
To read people is...
to read their desire and find their weaknesses.
Don't you say hello back to people?
If what our client says is true, then what about the offender?
It wouldn't be his first time.
But nobody else in the company was harmed the same way.
Of course not.
If they're still with the company, then they've accepted it.
If not...
They were probably fired or they quit.
Then I'll ask the defendant for a list of discharged or retirees.
But that's their weakness.
They wouldn't hand over their Achilles' heel.
Reaching an agreement is like rolling a die and moving...
based on the number shown on it.
You have to roll a die...
so you can move at least one square.
Exactly. But if we can't get the list,
then we have no die to roll.
No die?
Then you have to start with finding your die.
(Looking for victims of sexual harassment...)
(or unfair dismissal from Geumjeong Digitech)
(Visitors: 0)
I think I'm going to need your help.
Do you have time after work?
"After work"? I can't believe you just said that.
Mr. Go.
Everyone working at this firm works so hard...
that they barely get to leave this place.
Only partners get to go home.
How can an associate think about going home already?
Is that how it works?
By the way,
are you always that angry?
What?
Forget it. Mr. Chae is looking for you.
Okay.
- "Chae"? - Yes.
Chae? Not Choi?
- Chae. - Okay.
Who's Mr. Chae?
Don't you know who I am?
Hasn't Kang Seok told you about me?
No, not really.
Did you say hello...
to my goldfish?
Your goldfish?
- Hello. - I heard you're a genius.
Well...
Everyone here is a genius.
Did you also pass everything in a year?
(People who passed the 1st and 2nd bar exam in their first year)
That's why ever since our firm was founded,
there's a popular saying that goes,
"I can't win just by being competent."
"The opponent needs to be incompetent as well."
You wanted to see me?
Yes.
Where's Samil Group's litigation report?
I was out of town last weekend...
because I had to attend my friend's wedding, so I forgot.
Oh, I see.
I'll have it done by tomorrow morning.
No, there's no need.
You're fired.
- Pardon? - You're fired.
You don't need to come tomorrow.
But this is... You... You can't just...
fire me like this.
Babble all you want.
I can fire you like this.
I'm capable of firing you in many other ways.
So get lost.
I'm the supervising mentor of Kang and Ham's...
probationary associates.
What that means is...
I'll be waiting for the very moment you make a mistake.
And the moment you make even the smallest mistake,
I'll end up...
catching you with my intuition and tenacity,
and you'll end up getting blown up into a disaster.
"I can't win just by being competent."
"The opponent needs to be incompetent as well."
That's right. The opponent needs to be incompetent as well.
That's how I'll be able to...
fire you.
Give that to Kang Seok and tell him...
that he shouldn't waste time on making useless threats.
The dice have been rolled,
and we're already at war.
("Joseong Group Takes Over Taejin Enterprise")
Attorney Chae told me to tell you not to waste time on making threats.
- And... - Did he say the dice...
have been rolled and we're already at war?
That's his own motto.
He's been fighting himself ever since he was in college.
Don't mind him.
- How's the pro bono going? - It's...
Why is that jerk in that photo?
He's that guy who set me up with the bag of drugs.
Are you saying the guy who set you up with drugs...
is the son of Joseong Group's President Park?
Joseong Group?
This is interesting.
I heard he goes clubbing often.
He loves clubbing and what he loves more than alcohol is...
Doing drugs.
By the way, are you a good actor?
Don't drink it all at once.
Who is this?
You picked up, so I guess you didn't get arrested yet.
Who are you?
Me?
I'm someone who wants to teach you how scary people can be.
What's he saying?
Where are you going?
Hey, where are you going?
Who are you?
You're President Park Myeong Hwan of Joseong Group, aren't you?
You also sued Attorney Choi who currently works at Kang and Ham.
(Complaint)
Who are you?
Attorney Choi Kang Seok working for Kang and Ham.
There's a witness...
who saw you abusing a new type of drug on April 7.
But here you are, doing it again.
Anyway, that person reported you to the cops.
What?
Go look for him.
- Excuse me. - We're the police.
- Go this way. - Yes, sir.
If you sign this, I'll defend you myself...
on behalf of our firm.
This is the police.
Please open the door.
- Open the door. - Move.
Hello, President Park.
I'm Attorney Choi, and I'll be in charge of defending...
your son in court.
I'm guessing that you're trying to use my son...
in order to threaten me.
But all I need to do is to call a few cops and prosecutors...
He got caught in the act today,
and there's enough evidence to prove him guilty,
so none of your connections will be able to...
stop him from going to jail.
On top of that, you can still file a lawsuit against me...
like Attorney Chae advised you to do.
What's your point?
If you drop the suit,
I'll defend your son in court.
Anyone can defend my son in court.
Anyone?
I'm the only one who is at the site with him.
Will you be okay with that?
Attorney Choi always manages to come to an agreement...
whether it's by making a deal or making a threat.
Like he said, I'm offering you a deal right now.
But you're taking it as a threat...
and leading us to a conflict.
Okay, fine.
I'll rip the contract he signed...
and open the door.
(Delegation Agreement)
No, wait. No.
Dad, I really might die.
Aren't you going to save your son?
Are you going to kill me?
What do you want me to do?
Help me! Come on!
President Park has decided to take your offer.
This is the police. Open the door.
Let's go.
Gosh, he's such a scumbag.
We should've made him serve the maximum sentence.
No.
If President Park paid enough people and used all of his connections,
he would've gotten him out.
You can't catch a guy like that...
unless he's caught in the act.
Don't you think I was a great actor today?
Why didn't you pick up your phone?
Wait, did they try to harm you too?
This isn't good. Let's report it to the police.
We can't do that.
If we do, Cheol Soon will get arrested too.
What?
Yeon Woo, you knew. So what's going on?
Calm down. Let's talk later.
(Kang and Ham, Lawyer Go Yeon Woo)
I don't think it's safe for us to be here for a while.
- You should... - Yeon Woo.
What's this?
(Kang and Ham, Lawyer Go Yeon Woo)
I see. You became a lawyer.
I had no idea.
Things must've been really hectic for you.
I'm sorry I didn't catch on quickly.
Se Hee, it's not like that.
But I'm not so sure anymore.
About Cheol Soon and you.
I feel like I'm in the dark.
Is that how it is?
Hey, Ms. Hong.
What's your plan from now on?
I wonder why you are asking about my plan.
I'm sure you've seen the complaint.
I'm talking about after Kang Seok leaves the firm.
Mr. Choi is leaving?
Oh, because of Joseong Group.
Yes.
They withdrew the complaint.
What?
When? That can't be right. What are you talking about?
He probably won't pick up.
On the memorandum he signed when he withdrew the complaint,
it said he won't contact any lawyers of Kang and Ham in the future.
And I think it especially referred to someone named Chae...
You. It's you.
That's a manual of Kang and Ham's internal protocols.
You should get informed...
if you don't want Mr. Chae to trample all over you.
I thought I was a bit harsh, so I'm showing you a special favor...
- Mr. Go. - Yes? Right.
You said you had a favor to ask me yesterday.
When did I...
Right.
Oh, yes. It's...
You have to increase the number of the views,
so you want me to give you a hand to find people to follow you?
Yes.
It looks like you are a true genius, Mr. Go.
What?
You're a genius when it comes to making people angry.
- What? - Do you think we're a joke?
Do you think Kang and Ham is...
a place where we make social media celebrities?
Are you upset?
Gina, I...
Goodness, did you just call me Gina? I can't believe this.
No.
You just think that I'm a joke.
Unbelievable.
Wait, Gina.
I mean,
Ms. Kim.
This is the victim, Ms. Kim Mi Sook, and her daughter, Hee Soo.
It says, "Thank you, Mr. Lawyer."
I really want to help them.
I want to help them out and accept their gratitude.
But I'm not a real lawyer yet,
and there's nothing I can do here. I'm about to die in frustration.
If you can die from frustration, not a lot of people would be alive.
You found a die and then threw it.
Then why are you standing around?
You need to move forward according to the die.
(Looking for victims of Geumjeong's sexual harassment and dismissal)

We have no time.

What are you doing? Get to work.
- Okay. - Okay.
Excuse me.
I'm sorry for getting worked up before.
I apologize.
Then are you going to help me now?
Yes.
I have a few people that I know too.
I can share this on my social media.
That'll spread the word faster.

It took me all night to make it the number one trending website.

to daily newspapers, network TV, and to cable news networks.
They're starting to show up as the top article on each websites.
("Geumjeong Digitech's Sexual Harassment Controversy")
Is everything going well according to our plan?
Follow me. We can check and see...
if everything's going well.
(Seoul High Court)
What are you waiting for?
Your Honor, the plaintiff's vicious, groundless argument...
has damaged the honor of my client and his company.
This is a civil case court.
I do not deal with injunction cases.
Yes, however...
But that doesn't mean...
what you've done is right.
The case has not been decided yet.
But you came to a conclusion...
and used the media for your side's benefit.
This may affect your side negatively.
I am aware of that.
However, look at the data which the defendant sent us.
As you can see, there's nothing.
We had...
no way of finding other victims, witnesses, or eyewitnesses.
That was our only choice.
Nonsense. It never happened, so...
And we did not give out the articles first.
It's because it spread online very quickly.
We sent out a news release later to try to stop anyone from assuming.
So what is it that you want?
A list of female employees...
who were fired or resigned while the victim was working there.
I thought you had a rule to not get emotionally attached to clients.
You refused to come to an agreement to protect Ms. Kim Mi Sook.
If we couldn't find...
any evidence, witnesses, or victims with a similar case,
the case will end up getting dropped.
And of course, that's what they want.
So you used the media to stop the case from getting dropped.
The media has to side with the agreement...
because they feel more burden than the court.
This is the stage of moving forward according to the number on the die.
But in sexual harassment cases, we might end up facing a backlash.
We'll pretend to give up on moving forward and get the list.
If there are other victims...
He'll become a repeat offender and people will get angrier.
A lawyer only defends.
He neither protects nor supports someone.
If you get sentimental,
you can put your client into a trap.
Things can get more difficult from now on.
What do you think is next?
It's their turn to roll the dice.
This isn't just a list of dismissed and retirees.
It's personnel records of the entire employees, payslips,
and even vacation plans.
They're trying to waste our time.
Can they do this?
They rolled a dice.
So they get to move at least one square.
You said you can memorize everything.
This won't take long then.
That's what you do best. So it's a good thing, right?
I guess you can see it that way.
All they could come up with was flooding us with paper.
Good luck with this, Yeon Woo.
What do you mean, a law firm?
I saw something at home.
What did you see?
Se Hee, if I don't find him,
I'm going to be dead.
Is Yeon Woo at Kang and Ham?
Is he?
It's true, sir.
I don't know why he crawled in there.
But he's hiding in Kang and Ham for sure.
Gosh.
I'm sorry I left early.
No, don't be. Thanks for what you did yesterday and today.
Don't mention it.
By the way, that looks broken.
Shouldn't you fix it?
You saw it.
There's a story behind it.
Anyway, are you interested in me like the others?
What?
It looks like...
you didn't like me from the first time we met.
If there are people who hate you with no reason,
they say half of them are...
interested in you as much as they hate you.
Well, the other associates might feel that way.
I'm sorry to tell you this,
but I had a very clear reason.
Pardon?
"Reasons for dismissal."
"Absent without leave."
"Baek Eun Young."
Ms. Baek Eun Young?
You're Baek Eun Young, right?
You used to work at Geumjeong Digitech.
I called you earlier. I'm with Kang and Ham...
I'm not trying to bother you.
First...
If I testify,
I'll end up being the bad guy, won't I?
No. That won't happen.
I promise you that you'll be compensated for the damage.
We, no, I...
I know you're worried because you're skeptical of me.
But please, just know that I understand...
what you're feeling.
Tell me the result. Will she testify or not?
She won't.
So? Is that it?
No. So I said to her,
"How would feel if your daughter had the same thing..."
"happen to her?"
"She has a daughter too."
"Shouldn't we make this country..."
"a better place where women and children can be happy?"
- "So..." - That's too long.
He's going to tell you off.
So? Will she do it or not?
So...
she'll testify. She'll be here soon.
Good.
Call them.
Let's see how they react.
You said you understood my feelings.
Then why is he...
Well, it's...
Ms. Baek Eun Young, you worked for six months...
from March to September of 2016.
It looks like...
you never worked at any other companies.
No.
From June to August of 2012,
and from May of 2013 to June of 2014,
you worked at Sunshine, Shuttle, and Chohon.
These are bars, so called "room cafes".
What do they have to do with this case?
The owner of Chohon...
sued her for fraud and blackmail.
She was summarily indicted.
That's because he didn't pay my salary...
No.
You borrowed much more from him prior to that.
Also you even threatened to report him...
to the police for rape if he didn't give you money.
Will the Department of Justice believe...
her testimony?
Pro bono?
Kang Seok.
This isn't like you.
Why are you taking a case like this?
Ms. Baek.
Ms. Baek, please wait.
Wait. Please listen...
I don't have anything to say or anything I want to hear from you.
You should've told me if that kind of thing...
"That kind of thing"?
Are you saying this is all my fault?
No, what I'm saying is...
That's enough. I won't testify.
Cheol Soon knows. They might go there.
Who are you?
(Suits "Korea")
Where did you take that?
So you ignored my order and did a search,
and you only had one foot in the door while you were here.
I thought I wasn't supposed to blackmail people with my life.
No matter...
how quickly a criminal runs,
they can never outrun their crimes.
Persuade BewhY no matter what,
and make him my client.
I got rid of your junkie friend, and now you're siding with Geun Sik?
Are you sure you gave me a real opportunity?
You're still not fired, fake attorney.
It's been a while, Kang Seok.
