What are you doing out here?
What's wrong?
Are you all right?
Did something happen?
What is it?
You don't want to talk about it?
Is it hard to talk about it?
Should we go inside?
What am I going to do?
What is it?
I found out everything.
Now, I know everything.
What am I supposed to do?
Why you kept saying that you were a bad guy...
Why you were on the fence about making things clear with me...
Why you suddenly quit your job and are running away...
Why did you lie to me?
I was going to tell you everything today.
I'm sorry.
Today when?
When we are holding hands and taking a walk?
Or when we're kissing?
I don't know.
I just thought...
I should tell you everything today.
Tell me. Why did you do it?
Why did you lie...
and torture my sister?
Judge Han Soo Ho.
What you said...
made my sister's rapist not guilty.
What freed that scum wasn't the law, it was your word.
That... That...
Do you know what's even more miserable about this?
I thought that you wouldn't do such a thing.
I thought...
if my sister had been mistaken.
That crossed my mind for a second.
I doubted my sister for a second.
Han Soo Ho.
You are truly despicable.
(Delete this photo.)
(This album is empty.)
The nation's largest law firm's representative, Oh Dae Yang...
was reported for tax evasion and was sued accordingly.
The police are taking action towards this important matter...
but reported that the evidence may need to be reviewed again.
Sure.
You did a great job here...
and I wish you the best wherever you go.
Lee Ho Sung has been found doing drugs at an upper-class party.
It is also revealed that he has been under...
the drug influence for 12 years.
Proof of these activities as well as others involved...
has been provided by witnesses and so the police reports that...
the case will be sentenced with no difficulties.
(Illegal transfer of management rights within Osung Chemicals.)
I have a question...
should we all go for a drink?
So...
I see you again Judicial Trainee Officer Song.
- Yes. - That's right.
We are going to have to see each other for our whole lives.
Here.
Drink it. We are all here to drink.
Give me some.
You'll be graduating soon, did you choose your position?
Yes, I signed up for a judicial researcher position.
Do you think you can get that?
It's known to be very competitive.
I'm not sure as well.
That's a difficult position.
It's not like they only look at your exam results.
I know that.
If you know it, why are you still trying to enter a law firm?
Do you have an illusion about becoming a judge?
No, I don't.
Do you still keep in contact with Han Soo Ho?
No.
Why? Did you have a fight?
Sorry?
Didn't you guys have a thing?
Prosecutor, sir.
You're getting heated again, it's making me mad.
You look weirder whenever you do that.
The world is small, you better behave yourself.
Your image is as important as your skills.
If you need my recommendation, let me know.
I'll make sure you get to wherever you want to go.
Do you understand?
Prosecutor Hong Jung Soo,
I will officially sue you for all the misconducted...
and inappropriate behavior of yours.
You should behave yourself.
Are you okay?
Hey, Angry.
I'm just giving back what your brother gave me.
Okay, I'll pass it onto him.
This one too.
I don't think he gave you this much.
Interest increases pretty quickly nowadays.
Fight me if you can't deal with it.
Why aren't you hitting me back?
What's this?
Those you bought off a foreign identity.
- Are you looking for someone? - I have to find someone quickly,
but more than half of them don't reside in their registered address.
Check every one of them and look for...
I just sent it.
Okay. We specialize in this.
Thanks.
No, I should thank you.
Deposit is 5,000 and 10,000 as the final.
You sure 15,000 is enough?
You're up to something big, aren't you?
This isn't all right?
You should do these things together.
I have people with various professions around me.
Get this done first. Thanks.
Hey, hey!
The deposit.
That...
Take 5,000 dollars' worth of hearts.
Is that not enough?
You want to die?
You know how you've been illegally exporting stuff?
You won't be reported if you follow my orders.
That's what my brother said.
- Are you threatening me? - I don't threaten anymore?
I'm just conciliating.
- Are you kidding with me? - Just find that girl for me.
Your sentence for a year and a half will be ignored.
Using your judge brother like that is a big mistake.
That's what a mistake is.
Hitting people because of your fast judgments.
Call me every day and let me know...
who you've found and where.
If you don't, the police might call you instead.
Why isn't my brother a judge?
(Seoul Central District Prosecutor's Office)
You...
You're getting out of hand after...
being starred on the newspaper few times.
You should be embarrassed for getting sued by a trainee.
Do you know how sensitive these things are now?
I am being very careful not to...
make unintentional mistakes.
And you get sued by being very careful?
Do you remember Judicial Trainee Officer Song?
She once reported a sexual assault...
of someone from the upper-class.
We asked her for the audio recording...
but she nullified the report after.
Wait, it's her?
- Yes. - This crazy girl...
Are you sure you didn't do anything?
Prosecutor, tell him.
We have closed the case.
She doesn't have any proof or a witness.
Why is she all worked up without any evidence?
Some people are blinded by a victim mentality for some reason.
I'll take care of it on my end.
How?
During the questioning, she acknowledged...
the possibility of false accusation.
I plan to arrest and indict Song So Eun.
You'll arrest her?
I believe strong measures must be taken for someone like her.
If she made a false accusation against an active prosecutor,
she must be banned from the legal circle.
Make sure there are no chatters.
These days, women are scary.
(History of Criminal Investigation Records)
(Aggravated assault, assault, fraud,)
(assault and injury, and deliberate damage of coins)
So Eun.
There's something I didn't get to tell you that day.
Ms. Song So Eun.
- Are you inside, Ms. Song? - Who is this?
We're from Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office.
I'm an investigator at the prosecution. Please open up.
You checked my ID, correct? Open up now.
I'm Lee Sang Yoon from the prosecutors' office.
Are you Ms. Song So Eun?
Yes, what is this regarding?
You sued Prosecutor Hong Jung Soo for sexual harassment, right?
- Yes. - We concluded you made...
a false accusation during the questioning.
You must accompany us to the prosecution for questioning.
Hold on.
- What are you saying? - It's just as I explained.
You will accompany us on the grounds of false accusation.
Come with us.
Hold on. I'll go.
Just come with us. Don't make this into a big deal.
- Why did you do it? - What do you mean?
Were you trying to extort settlement money from Prosecutor Hong?
Everything is in the petition I filed.
What you wrote in the petition isn't true!
What have you done to establish the truth of the petition?
We launched an investigation. We're going to investigate now too.
Come in.
Excuse me.
It's not fair to investigate the victim and the assailant...
of the sexual harassment.
Your petition for sexual harassment was found not guilty.
As for now, Prosecutor Hong is a victim of your false accusation.
You're the assailant.
Don't get the wrong idea, and sit down.
I'll start my questioning.
Sit down.
Should I write in your report that...
you refused to be questioned?
I'm sorry to bring you in at this late hour.
I will answer your questions to the best of my ability.
Pick up. Please pick up.
(Han Kang Ho)
Do you know what time it is?
What took you so long to answer?
- Let me ask you for a favor. - Don't.
A friend of mine was arrested for making a false accusation.
I'm not a judge anymore.
I'm not an attorney.
But you must have some connections!
She's innocent.
She'll be released if she is not guilty.
And I don't have any connections. I'm hanging up.
Don't hang up. Wait.
- Don't call me. - Hey, Han Soo Ho.
Hey, jerk. Gosh, I'll treat you like my older brother from now on.
(Power-off)
The phone is turned off.
Darn it.
When you were getting trained at the prosecution,
you accused him of sexual harassment.
And you asked the chief prosecutor to discipline him.
Yes.
Why did you withdraw your complaint...
and apologized to him then?
That day, Prosecutor Hong...
brought me to a bar after we finished work.
He forced me to drink.
He told me that depending on the evaluation form he filled out,
my chance at getting hired at the prosecution would be determined.
When he was pressuring me, he sexually assaulted me.
Thank you.
Is that it?
Do you want to sleep with me?
I thought that I should leave a record of our conversation,
so I decided to record it.
I'm recording it.
Could you please repeat what you said?
I think you're drunk.
Go home and get some sleep.
We can't force our subordinates to drink these days.
However, he tried to turn things around to his advantage.
He tried to use that recording as evidence,
so I withdrew my complaint.
The recorded conversation won't help you make your case.
It will only undermine yours?
You've done this a lot.
This is your second time.
There are no witnesses or evidence.
Why are you constantly torturing Prosecutor Hong?
That's what I would like to ask.
Why are you torturing me?
Talking about the old days refreshed my memory.
When she was getting her training, she was incompetent.
I only made her do menial tasks.
I gave her the lowest mark for her evaluation.
She must have held a grudge against me.
- Is that so? - That's not true.
Of course, it is.
When you were working as the trainee prosecutor,
your instructing prosecutor gave you a lower mark.
You falsely accused him of sexual harassment to get revenge.
That must be it. Do you admit that?
- I do not. - Then we must duke it out in court.
Is there anything you'd like to say before we finish?
I doubt that she will be chosen as a researcher in court.
But even if she is,
she'll be kicked out once she gets prosecuted.
I'll have compassion on her future. If she says five words,
I will think about showing mercy or not.
What are those five words?
"Have mercy on my life."
If she apologizes, you will drop the charges, right?
You should kneel down and apologize.
Do you want to be unemployed after graduating from the institute?
You should at least make a living.
I...
only told the truth.
And according to the presumption of innocence,
indictment won't be a reason for disqualification.
You don't...
need to pretend to care about my future.
Are you challenging a prosecutor?
People only challenge champions.
Are prosecutors champions of our society?
You really don't care about your future, do you?
What's your backup?
The law.
When he clearly touched my thigh...
and when I fought back, you gave me a thumbs-up.
But how could you not have seen it?
I didn't say I didn't see it.
Then you saw it right?
I told you, I don't know.
So by that,
do you mean you saw it or you didn't?
I mean exactly what I said.
I don't know means I don't know.
Please.
As a woman, I do understand your position.
But I still don't know.
I might not have seen it or...
I might have but don't know if it's actually a sexual assault.
- So you did see it. - Do you have a boyfriend?
I know someone, you might be interested.
He's a businessman. Do you want to meet him?
My life depends on this.
Can I give your tip?
Don't ever depend your life on anything.
Your life will feel heavier.
Over here.
Song So Eun...
received a police inspection recently.
What? Trainee Officer Song?
Please keep this a secret.
Yes, of course but what happened?
She's not someone who would get inspected by the police.
Can you look into this for me?
How this happened, what's going to happen,
and how I can help.
That's not difficult but you called me for it.
Did you lose your connections?
What are you talking about? I live off my connections.
I heard everything.
You're looking for a position as a professor at a law school,
but every school is rejecting you.
Lee Ho Sung still hasn't learned after he got reported.
If you do become a professor,
he's going to threaten the school to end all scholarship support.
Schools shouldn't run like that.
They are blinded by corporate support.
I see.
Cheer up.
The fact that you're not a lawyer is a surprise...
and trying to become a professor is a surprise.
But you always manage to get through these situations well.
Don't worry about trainee Song.
She registered as a trial researcher.
It's hard to get the position but once she does...
no one can walk all over her.
Yes, she has to get it.
She will.
So you should hang in there as well and do your own thing.
Trainee Song believed in you.
Let's eat, shall we?
Not that.
(Yooksoodang)
(Cooking books)
(Yooksoodang)
How are you?
How's the company?
It's still a little shaken up.
I'm expected to give in my shares to the company...
and walk away from the position.
I don't think it will last a long time.
Why aren't you asking for them?
- What are you referring to? - Company shares.
You're in control now. You should ask for them.
If I ask for them, would you give them to me?
If I did, are you prepared enough?
If I am, will you give them to me?
Are you the one who made me like this?
If it wasn't you,
no one would have reported my tax evasion.
If I told you I didn't, would you believe me?
You won't.
You never...
believed me anyways.
So is that why you did it?
If you got rid of me,
you thought you could take over the company?
Yes.
Did you really do this?
Yes.
I raised you thinking that you were my son,
but you were a trash.
Have you ever...
complimented me?
Have you ever praised me...
and treated me like your son?
You never did.
What more do I need to do?
That's why you should've...
tried even harder.
Yes.
Sorry for not being up to your standards father.
When are you ever going to grow up?
(Episode 30)
Number 17 is next. Ms. Song So Eun, please come in.
Good luck.
Based on the report that was established...
when the defendant was a victim,
and if the police officer who wrote the report...
appears on the day of trial...
and testifies that he had taken the defendant's statement,
can you allow this as evidence?
The defendant's investigation report the police officer wrote...
can only be submitted...
as evidence when the defendant acknowledges the statement as true.
Therefore, it cannot be allowed as evidence.
According to your answer, if the defendant...
doesn't agree to use...
the investigation report the police officer wrote,
the investigation report will be inadmissible in court...
even if the officer who investigated the defendant testifies.
That's not correct.
This may seem to contradict the previous precedent,
but if the defendant denied the accusation in court...
Summarize your answer.
Elaborate why my answer is wrong.
The investigation report can't be admitted as evidence,
but statements about...
the officer's personal experience during the investigation...
can be admitted in court as evidence.
Okay.
I didn't understand a single thing but you were great.
You can head to the interview room.
Candidate 18, please come in.
(Judicial Researcher personality interview)
So, have you ever felt that law was difficult?
After an exam, I decided to watch a movie.
One was about a world without laws,
and the other...
was about laws that took control over our emotions as well.
I wondered why without laws, we will be in dystopia,
and why with extreme laws, we will still be in dystopia.
The thought that a society is regulated through its existence...
made me feel like law was difficult.
That was quite complex.
I will ask one last question.
If the law had to do one job,
would it be for society's regulation or value?
What do you think?
If the law had to do one job,
I believe it should be for us.
(Judicial Researcher personality interview)
Why are you here without notice?
What's up with you guys?
I told you two to come see me this weekend.
I was tidying up.
Do you know what to do now...
after stepping down from being a judge?
- I'll get it sorted myself. - Okay.
After...
I got married...
I thought that was it.
Sending Kang Ho as an adoptee to our relatives,
I thought I had to let it happen...
since it was decided by your grandparents.
It's not like I was completely...
giving him away to someone.
Whatever happens, the fact that...
he's my son won't change anyway.
Kang Ho will understand one day.
I was so thankful for you guys.
What did I do to deserve children like you guys?
Thank you for coming into my life.
I'm thankful and always will be.
But one...
is filled with anger and is unstable,
and the other cared too much...
and got hurt too much.
That's what I think.
You must be tired, you should go to bed.
Soo Ho,
I'm sorry for raising you wrongly.
I wasn't good enough, for the both of you.
I'm sorry you guys ended up like this.
I gave up my career as a judge, and now I'm not good enough.
I'm always...
filled with anger...
that you...
and Kang Ho aren't fully a person.
I should've been less happy when you came in first.
There is...
second, tenth and even last place...
in this world.
I should've taught you that.
Soo Ho,
live with sincerity.
Be sincere to people,
and to this world as well.
Do you understand?
I'll be heading out.
Mom.
I'm okay, I just came to tell you that.
I'll see you on Thanksgiving.
You don't have to see me out.
I'll take you back.
It's okay, I know my way back.
Don't come out.
(Overseas Training Application)
Are you applying as well?
- Hello. - Have a seat.
You're applying for Germany, right?
Yes.
This time, the newsroom and the drama team are prioritized.
So I'm not sure we will get a chance.
We? Did you apply as well?
Of course, it's a good opportunity.
But isn't it too soon for you to register?
I asked the director and was told to go for it.
- The director must not like you. - Sorry?
Director has a year left to go.
He'll have to see you if he keeps you...
but looks bad to get rid of you.
However, sending you abroad will ease his remaining time.
No one will go against him then.
I don't do that.
I'm always polite. Director is just misunderstanding.
Whatever, you're doing that to me now.
What did your parents say about this?
They think...
it's a great opportunity too.
How about your boyfriend?
I don't have one.
You hesitated.
You should discuss this first.
Whether you want to end it or take him with...
or whether you want him to wait.
You should discuss it properly.
I don't have a boyfriend.
See, you hesitated again.
Don't apply without thinking, I'm worried I might not get it then.
(Song So Eun, you have been selected as a judicial researcher.)
(Contacts)
What on earth is this?
Inspired by Budae jjigae,
I came up with a new dish. A perfect meal for one.
So is this a stew or a soup?
It's Budae jjigae stew soup.
Hold on, let's try it out.
What did you do to this?
Is it weird? It doesn't taste good?
Finally, I feel that my nagging was actually worthwhile.
It's so good.
Let's sell this, will you give us the recipe?
Of course.
Every dish created at our restaurant is ours.
Who's 'us'?
Who do you think 'us' is?
Well, 'us' would be us.
Not us two.
We will figure this on our own. Mind your business.
I'm the one who taught him.
- Is that true? - Of course, he did.
I just didn't learn anything from him.
I'll slap you with this hot pot.
Did you beat him up in the slammer too?
Gosh, you're the definition of a traitor.
I'm the only who took you in.
You're clinging onto Hong Ran and flattering her now.
Didn't you tell me that?
You said that I'll get a job with my skillset,
but I'll get promoted with my social skill.
At this rate, I'll surpass you and become the boss' right-hand man.
Don't whine when that happens.
You should try to win her over.
I would've been the president if being romantic was the criteria.
Should I give you a full lecture on love?
Hold on.
(Jin Wook Tae)
Go ahead.
You found her? Really?
Where?
Okay. Send me the address.
He found her! He finally found her!
Get off me. What are you doing? You're embarrassing me.
- He found her! - My goodness.
(Jin Wook Tae)
What is it? Give it back.
- This is urgent. Give it back. - Hey.
Why are you looking for that woman?
How do you know this woman?
Forget it. I'm sure she's just someone who resembles her.
By any chance, her last name isn't Song, is it?
It is.
Then her name isn't Ji Yeon, is it?
It is Song Ji Yeon.
How do you know her?
(Yeonggok-ri, Yangchon-eup, Gimpo, Gyeonggi Province)
Calm down.
Where is she now?
Your sister...
is healthy. She's doing okay.
(Agricultural Pesticides)
This is a wish bracelet.
If it breaks off by itself, your wish will come true.
If it never breaks off, my wish won't come true?
- Probably. - Really?
What if it never breaks for the rest of my life?
Then you'll be wearing it for the rest of your life.
- Should I make a wish now? - Right now?
- Yes. - Sure.
The storm came late this year, so insects harmed the crops and all.
It's tough to farm now without a sufficient amount of rain.
Exactly. We'll have nothing to harvest this year.
I'm worried about the weather every year.
Here you go.
Put 2 cups of this for every 18 liters.
Use only half of a bag for this one.
It's going to rain tomorrow night.
I think you might be better off using the fixing agent too.
It only rains when I don't want it to rain.
- Give it to me. - Well, they say rain is heartless.
Give him five bottles of fixing agents.
That comes out to...
The total amount is 114 dollars.
I only brought 100 dollars. Put the rest on my tab.
You always put some of it on your tab.
You're doing that on purpose, right?
Do you want a hat?
- Mom. - Say hello first.
I'm back from the kindergarten.
Look at you, Bo Ram.
I want you to stop growing now.
You came back yesterday?
If you met your sister after 7 or 8 years,
you should have spent the night there at least.
Here you go. I only put in 3,000 dollars.
I will give you the rest, 2,000 dollars when I get paid.
You should buy some ice cream on your way home with it.
No, I must pay you for your service.
Come on, I can't accept that.
It's not like I found your sister.
Then who did?
Since I retired from the field,
these punks would take forever to get things done.
It took them 10 days to finish a day's worth of work.
Someone must have threatened or appeased them.
They got a list for the sale of identification cards...
and spread that list all over Korea. Things got done so quickly.
Who is that person?
I should at least pay that person.
Gosh, you should be glad that you got to keep your money.
By the way, something must have happened.
No.
When families meet after 3 or 4 years,
usually, 1 of these 2 things happens.
They either hug each other and cry their eyes out...
or they fight each other, asking why they came at all.
How did the meeting go?
She just went to see her sister from afar.
What do you mean?
She's been looking for her sister for years.
She doesn't know what had happened to her.
If she has a daughter, she must have a husband too.
If she shows up out of thin air,
he wouldn't know that she's the sister.
What would happen then?
He'll find out that she had been raped and had left home.
Her husband and his family...
My gosh, it's too complicated.
So? They didn't meet?
What did she tell you?
My sister looked so happy.
I couldn't approach her.
I might break her bubble.
She was so considerate.
Where are you going?
To her sister's house in Gimpo.
Why are you going there?
To ask...
if she wouldn't be happy with her sister.
They're not your family.
Why are you putting your nose in their business?
Besides, after several days or months,
things might happen organically.
During that time,
So Eun will be heartbroken.
So Eun?
She was the trainee judge who worked under your brother.
Yes.
And you're looking for her because your brother asked you.
Yes.
Is she the one you're in love with?
Not anymore.
You got that right. You can't be in love with her.
She's a future judge. And you have five priors.
Must I put this in layman's terms?
She's a queen,
and you're just pile of crap. That's it.
Yes, I am.
I know that's who I am.
I'll be back.
- So Eun. - Go away.
Your sister wants to see you too.
Let's go.
So you're the one who found my sister?
- Yes. - Why?
Did you want to see how...
well she was doing after you ruined her life?
- Let's go. - Please mind your own business.
I will go on my own if I want to.
You don't have any right to...
go wherever my sister is.
I still remember...
that day I blew out those candles.
Make a wish.
I wished that I could find your sister.
I only had one wish and that was it.
And that was the only wish...
we could make it happen.
Do you know why?
Do you know why I testified for that case?
Do you know why I did that to you?
I wrote the reason down here.
Read it later.
From now on, I won't...
appear in front of you,
so please listen to me one last time.
No.
I don't want to.
When one doesn't want to,
they should still think about how others would feel.
If you truly feel that way.
Go to your sister.
I'll believe you.
That you won't appear in front of me again.
Go, I'll go now.
(Pesticide shop)
Did you hate me for it?
Yes...
A lot.
