What's he chanting?
They're terms from martial arts novels.
I think I have an idea of whereabouts he is now.
Whenever he's in a big shock,
he does this in his desperate attempt to pull himself together.
It's his habit.
He recites terms from martial arts novels to pull himself together?
- We meet again. - Yes, hello.
There they are.
They're from the law firm I just joined.
You said you used to work at B and G, right?
Yes, as an intern.
The ace of my firm, Kang Gi Seok,
suddenly joined B and G.
And simultaneously, you came to my firm...
from B and G with a strange case.
In other words, a sports car and a clunker...
swapped their positions as if it was planned.
Don't you think it's fishy? It reeks of fish if you ask me.
We're dealing with the prosecution at the moment.
It has nothing to do with B and G.
Try to be quick-witted if you're incompetent.
Prosecutor Hwang, who had...
no enthusiasm whatsoever,
suddenly became so enthusiastic, brimming with confidence,
like a freshly-caught tuna. Do you really not know the reason?
Are you saying B and G is behind him?
Do you really not know? Or are you just pretending?
If you didn't know, you were totally used.
A malicious virus that infiltrated the perfect system.
That's you!
No, I'm not used. And I'm neither a virus...
nor a clunker.
I was worried that things might go wrong,
but that guy, Kang Gi Seok, is pretty competent.
Did you see Monster Pervert's face turning pale?
And his blank stare.
- Are you that happy? - We still have a long way to go.
If I think about all I've been through, this is only the beginning.
I'm sure Monster Pervert will be shocked by this.
I mean, it's not even a stranger.
His mentee betrayed him.
If you know that so well,
how could you be so unsympathetic toward what I've been through?
That's different.
Lawyer Kang chose to join us,
whereas Monster Pervert had no choice but to quit.
And you're responsible for cornering him like that.
I didn't do it for my sake.
I did it for the company.
I'll be off, then.
Do you still...
want to blame me for what happened back then?
I don't have the right to do that.
I'm an accomplice after all.
You hid it, didn't you?
How could you call yourself human?
Answer me.
Tell me what you're hiding!
I'm not hiding anything!
You knew everything from the get-go.
Even though you knew, you acted like you were just...
and conscientious while shedding your fake tears, didn't you?
You're drunk!
We can talk about this tomorrow.
Tae Rim.
- Why are you being like this? - Let go!
You two.
You'd better stay far away from me.
I'll kill you if I see you ever again.
That jerk...
What? You want to play golf tomorrow?
Sure, I'm in.
Work? I don't have to come into the office.
They won't know I'm gone.
- He looks like a model. - Oh, my.
- Doesn't he look like an actor? - Yes, seriously.
Look at the way he's sitting. Even that's so hot.
- My gosh. - He's so good-looking.
Doesn't that look like a fashion editorial?
It looks like a scene from a movie.
How could he be so handsome?
Ladies, this is ridiculous.
Shouldn't you be working now?
Do you want to work late today?
Ju Hee and Min Ju, I saw your faces.
I'm going to give you ladies a mountain of work to do.
Fashion editorial, my foot.
How dare that young newbie...
be such a poser in front of his superior?
Hey.
Look at you. Hey, can't you hear me?
Earphones?
Hey.
- Who are you? - I heard you're Tae Rim's mentee.
You're rude just like him.
Well, how can I help you?
I'm Yoon Sang Koo, a senior lawyer at this firm.
Put your feet down and greet me respectfully!
You're Lawyer Yoon Sang Koo.
Brother!
Gosh, what's this about? What's with you?
So you'll be my associate lawyer starting today, right?
"Associate"? Who will be assisting whom?
- I'll be assisting you? - Yes.
Are you sick? Or have you lost your mind?
He's right.
It's an order from Mr. Bang.
You'll be assisting Mr. Kang starting today.
What? What did you say?
Come again? Does that make sense to you?
Why do I have to assist this young newbie?
If you want to complain about it, take it up with Mr. Bang.
You don't think I can take it up with him?
I'm going to leave this firm.
What did you just say?
You'll quit?
No, you misheard me.
I love this firm.
What will happen to you at this firm...
depends on Mr. Kang's evaluation of your performance,
so I'll leave it up to you.
See you later.
I look forward to working with you.
Likewise.
This is all Monster Pervert's fault.
I'll teach him a lesson.
I must.
What happened between him and B and G...
that they're sworn enemies now?
I don't think that's something I can answer.
I guess that's not the issue right now.
Byung Tae and Shin Mi Kyung.
They couldn't be at the same place at the same time.
That means someone's lying or mistaken.
Hang on, where did yesterday's receipt go?
- Pardon? - It's nothing.
I should write things down each day, but I put it off,
so I sometimes collect the receipts.
Here it is.
Every day?
(Busy but relaxing)
I knew it.
A fishy smell means something's wrong.
What is it this time? Do you think I'm wearing a wire?
Why are you still here?
How can I go home when I might lose in court?
Are you not looking for information to leak?
But then, if you lose, your slave contract is void,
and B and G will treat you like a hero...
and promote you.
I bet you're thinking you're sly...
and giggling inside.
A man's life is at stake.
While you're joking around,
he's wasting away in his cell.
Sorim, dalma, yeokgeun, sesu,
geumkangbulgoe, and nahanjin.
Mudang, daecheong ganggi oheng geomjin,
hwasan, jaha shingong, oknyeo shingong...
- I can't hear... - Mr. Go.
- You called? - Yes.
We can't talk here. Follow me.
Why?
Oh, security cameras?
Quiet. It's an absolute secret.
Especially from the spy outside, okay?
Okay, sure.
I said I didn't see anything like that.
Will you please think about it just once?
It was on November 16...
- Stop bothering me and get lost. - My goodness.
I don't remember anything.
Your testimony could rescue...
an innocent young man.
You're the only one in this world who can do that.
Saving someone's life...
is like saving yourself.
Ma'am.
Ms. Shim Soon Ja.
When did you see that? Get lost. Disappear.
A young man's life is at stake.
You're the only one who can save him.
I told you to go away.
Please. Will you please help me?
Are you saying that only I can save that man?
Yes. And saving him is also like...
saving yourself, Ms. Shim.
What does the thing look like?
This is it. It's called a CD.
It's used to record videos.
Welcome.
I'm surprised that you like places like this.
Because my taste is too simple for my wealth?
If I must put it in words, yes.
Prosecutor Lee. That's what we call a stereotype.
The delusion that the rich...
eat French food or steak and wine.
I wanted you to free yourself from such stereotypes,
so I asked to meet you here.
That's great.
So, what kind of cases are you working on?
Must I talk about work on a date?
You're reluctant to share.
"How dare a woman ask about a prosecutor's work?"
You feel so superior that even after marriage,
you're likely to treat your wife like you do a subordinate.
Gosh, no, I'm not like that. I don't think I'm superior.
I have high regards for women.
The case I'm working on right now...
Are you ready to order?
Can I ask you something?
Why are you alone? Where's Lawyer Kang?
Hey, sister.
You have a way of surprising people.
I finished sorting the papers.
Are you? Well done.
I'd like to leave then.
I was concerned about how you'd be doing, but I'm surprised.
Here's a Moroccan proverb for you.
"Don't chase a camel searching for an oasis."
Is Lawyer Yoon the camel?
Does that proverb actually exist?
So, what's the real reason?
I heard that you two got along.
You want to know why I want to beat Go Tae Rim?
It's obvious.
I must beat the best to be the best.
Is that really the only reason?
The simplest answer's usually correct.
I hate formalities, manners, and especially loyalty.
Is that so?
Who is he calling a camel?
What a jerk.
Seriously?
What? I was just leaving.
I got our investigators to find out who assaulted Monster Pervert.
When? Long after I was humiliated?
Isn't it obvious?
Monster Pervert sacrificed me to win over DN Group.
Wait and see. I'll make him pay.
- Don't do anything stupid. - Why not?
Too bad you can't give your pigeons any messages to take.
Conspiracies and spies sound fine,
but if we lose today, our contract's void.
That would make a Neanderthal that died 350,000 years ago...
break through the ice and get on a pogo stick.
It's basically impossible.
You'd better admit it.
Is that a threat?
Is she a lawyer or a race walker?
If you ask what I think,
I believe Lawyer Seo is talented.
I briefly coached the race walkers on the Korean National Team.
What? You did what?
We'll pick up where we left off.
Counsel, you may speak.
Ms. Shin Mi Kyung. You said that at the time...
of the incident, you were at the bus stop.
Yes, that's right.
Your proof of that is your blog's daily diary entry.
I read everything you'd written in the past five years.
You have many visitors,
and based on the number of comments,
I could see how popular you are.
Just a bit.
There must be days when you don't write anything.
You made an entry every single day.
If you're sensitive and in tune with your senses,
even a minor event...
becomes a special experience for me.
I'm impressed.
Then I'll ask you about your blog posts.
On Thursday, December 21, 2017,
you wrote the following.
"Watching the long-awaited snow..."
"made me crave tteokbokki spicy enough to burn my tongue."
"I visited my regular hangout Bbyonggari Snack Foods."
- Is that right? - Yes.
I did some digging and Bbyonggari Snack Foods...
was closed that day.
- What? - For two years,
on every Thursday, Bbyonggari's owner...
visited his mom at a care home.
Objection. The question is irrelevant.
Overruled.
February 18, 2018.
"I saw a child and her parents after her preschool graduation."
"Was I once that young?" That's what you wrote.
I checked with the preschool and their kids...
graduated two days before, on February 16th.
I'm not trying to criticize Ms. Shin.
I believe she's trying hard not to disappoint her followers...
who would be sad if she didn't upload anything.
But it's also a fact that the dates...
don't directly correspond with the events.
I'll ask you again.
Are you sure you were at the bus stop on the day in question?
Could you not have been there the day before or after?
No, I'm positive.
What?
I checked again with my brother.
He confirmed the date for me.
He even came with me to court today.
She's right.
You really are meticulous.
Did you say you double checked?
To be honest, I don't care if you ate tteokbokki,
visited the kindergarten,
or went clubbing instead of going to the library.
None of that matters.
- Pardon? - What are you doing?
The only reason why it's important to verify her whereabouts...
is because of Kim Byung Tae, the defendant.
"The power blogger's judgment..."
"reverses the defendant's alibi."
After this article got released, the number of people...
visiting the witness' blog suddenly skyrocketed.
What's your point?
I'm saying the human brain can sometimes...
deliberately make mistakes due to their greed.
Especially when the witness is getting ready...
to use her blog to start a business with her brother.
It's true that we're getting ready to sell household goods,
but that doesn't mean I would make things up.
I'm also very well aware...
of the responsibility I hold as a witness of this case.
Yes, of course.
But do you think your brother, who's in severe debt...
due to countless business failures, also think the same way?
- Objection, Your Honor. - Attorney.
I'm sorry, Your Honor.
Then let's take a look at what happened that day.
This is the CCTV footage...
from the CCTV in front of her house on the day of the incident.
Please look carefully.
(Witness)
Can you see the date and time?
It turns out that her brother didn't drive her home that day.
She actually came home all by herself on foot.
And if you look closely, you can see that she was...
wearing a heart-patterned scarf, not a skull-shaped one.
I'm sorry.
I must've been mistaken.
I'm sorry.
That is all.
(Counsel)
Is there anyone who wishes to make an additional argument?
Yes, Your Honor.
You testified that the CCTV didn't record your interrogation...
because the machine was broken that day.
But I received a recording of the interrogation you did that day...
from the cleaning lady at the police station.
Do you see this?
It's a sticker that automatically gets issued after every recording...
which includes the name of the police station, date, and time.
But we can't see anything on the screen.
I gave it to my son.
Yes, that's the one.
Since it was so shiny, I figured it'd be a perfect gift for him.
So I gave it to him.
My son drives a freight truck.
(92R 0726)
A lot of drivers stick CDs to their trucks...
because it helps reflect light when we drive late at night.
It's been damaged a little.
We weren't able to restore the video clip,
but we can still hear parts of their conversation.
So I'm sure you couldn't hold your anger.
And that's why...
you went to the victim's house and waited for him to come home.
Am I correct?
It really wasn't me. I didn't kill him.
How could I kill someone? It wasn't me.
- I really didn't do it. - Stop lying to me.
The witness testified that he never threatened the defendant.
- However... - No.
That was the sound of the defendant falling from his chair.
He was very agitated, so he slipped as he was trying to sit back down.
Witness.
Do you not know how serious of perjury is?
How dare you lie in court...
and throw away evidence?
I'm sorry, Your Honor.
But that doesn't change the fact that the defendant is guilty.
Don't you agree?
Look at me!
I've been dealing with jerks like you for 30 years now.
I know who's guilty just by looking at the person.
Do you really think you can fool me? Do you?
That is all.
He's innocent!
(Court)
Congratulations!
- Congratulations! - This is great!
- Gosh, this is unbelievable. - This is great.
- You did great. - Congratulations.
She didn't even do much.
Don't be too intimidated.
You still managed to catch him off guard.
I'll look forward to next time.
Yes, sir.
I'm going to meet the president of the court.
You guys can go first.
- Bye, sir. - Okay, bye.
I knew it.
Monster Pervert wouldn't lose a case that easily.
The opponent was wrong.
And to be exact, he lost to Lawyer Seo.
The most important element that affected the trial...
wasn't the witness' testimony.
It was that there was a problem with the investigation procedure.
The unreasonable investigation which resulted in a false statement.
Then are you saying Monster Pervert might've lost for the first time...
if it weren't for Lawyer Seo?
That's nonsense.
Even if I'm being generous,
she contributed less than five percent for winning this trial.
I personally think...
her contribution adds up to about 50 percent.
Well, you're wrong.
A ruling can't get overturned...
just because of an audio file.
Our country's legal system isn't that easy.
Then how about 49 percent?
Fine. 10 percent.
No more than that.
I'm not trying to bargain a price with you.
What do you want?
Did you come here to kill me yourself this time?
Tae Rim, listen to me carefully.
I didn't do it. It wasn't me!
The evidence speaks for itself.
Tae Rim, stop right there.
I said, stop!
Put everything back to how it was!
I used to...
Work at the Korean National Training Center, right?
No.
I used to be a judo coach at the Lithuanian judo association.
- Where? - Lithuania.
It's one of the Baltic States including Estonia and Latvia.
How can you just keep talking after throwing me onto the ground?
If you're so upset, find me the real culprit.
The real culprit?
- Byung Tae! - Jae In.
Thank you, Jae In.
No, there's no need to thank me.
You got acquitted because you didn't do anything wrong.
When you were making your last argument,
it made me feel like we were back in elementary school again.
I knew you'd do it for me.
Even back then, you told the kids that my mom was a nurse.
Thank you, Lawyer Seo.
Hey, stop it.
I'll call you once I settle down.
Okay, cheer up.
- I'll see you. - Okay. Good luck.
I guess this is how it feels to be an attorney.
15 years? How old does that make me?
It's a scheme.
He's trying...
to make me feel nervous by saying he didn't do it.
No, no.
What if it wasn't him? Then who could it be?
Who? Who could it be?
Will you please calm down, sir?
If he's right, and the real culprit is someone else,
we never know when he might show up again.
If you feel so nervous,
do you want me to teach you a few self-defense moves?
No, let's hire more guards.
And let's get a bulletproof car.
Then I won't have to ride the subway.
That's going to cost you a lot of money.
What's happening?
What is that? Look! Over there!
Why are you so startled?
Did you know there was going to be a shower today?
Gosh, my hair's all wet.
You look like a ghost. You're doing that on purpose, aren't you?
You're doing that because you know I'm scared of ghosts, aren't you?
Are you talking about this? Like this?
Stop it!
You should dry yourself, Ms. Seo.
- "Ms. Seo"? - Yes.
As of today,
no one can refute that you're a lawyer at Go Tae Rim Law Firm.
That's true. Thank you.
I don't think you should be excited about it. It means that...
I'm aware that this seals the slave contract.
All right. Shall we get your training started, then?
You'll say you'd rather get locked up in a cell...
with millions of cockroaches and Papillon and beg me in tears.
Pure misery is about to begin.
I should help you prepare yourself mentally for your 15-year contract.
Gosh, what's going on?
Hey, I told you not to do that!
What's with her?
Gosh, you're so loud. Did you win the trial?
Why are you coming out of there?
I stayed up all night to watch these.
Oh, boy. I'll be off, then.
There are landmines everywhere.
Mr. Gu, please take care of her training for me.
I'm off.
You just wait.
I'll get back at you 990 million fold.
You were truly impressive today, Ms. Seo.
It's raining, and I'm quite hungry. How about some kimchi pancakes?
I'd love that, Mr. Gu.
Then give me a few minutes.
Okay!
(Around the scene)
(November 15, 2018, Around the Scene 1)
I knew you'd do it for me.
Even back then, you told the kids that my mom was a nurse.
This is from near the scene, right?
Yes, and...
This man in a raincoat. His face is...
Why? Are you worried that you might have gotten a murderer acquitted?
That's not the case, right?
No, it can't be, right?
Whether he's a murderer or not doesn't matter.
That's not important, and I'm not even interested in finding out.
The prosecution didn't have sufficient evidence.
That's why he got acquitted. That's how the law works.
Then what about the truth?
We're mere lawyers, not the almighty one up above.
We have no way of finding out the truth.
Then what should we believe?
That's...
Find the answer yourself.
The kimchi pancakes are ready.
Mind your breathing.
What's up with your guard today?
Will you defend using your face again in your next match?
What are you doing?
You've only completed two sets. Are you tired already?
I thought I won,
but I don't think I did.
The boxer you knocked down...
can knock you out. It happens often.
Will you continue to fight or give up?
Isn't that the only decision you have to make?
Right?
Do you want to give up?
No.
This is only the beginning.
- He's so hot. - He looks even better at night.
This is why I can't leave work.
I'll never get sick of that face.
- Oh, my goodness. - He's so handsome!
- Let's just stay and work late. - Are you cockroaches or what?
Why are you ladies always glued to this window?
Aren't you leaving for the day?
Why don't you consider a career change? Become window washers.
There's nothing like classical music when you're feeling down.
I'd like to call it a day now.
- Sure, that's fine. - Okay, thank you.
Did you prepare everything for the meeting with Haeyoung Corp?
What's wrong with me?
I thought the meeting was tomorrow afternoon.
I should get everything ready for it. Going home isn't important.
Keep it up.
Why? Are you worried that you might have gotten a murderer acquitted?
Yes, I am.
I'm terrified.
Who ordered chicken gizzards?
- Here. - Me!
What?
- It's mine. - I ordered it.
- It's mine, ma'am. - No, it's mine.
I'm sold out of chicken gizzards. This is all that's left.
You two figure it out. I don't care.
- Let go. - You let go.
- Are you crazy? - Yes, I am. Let go.
Have you gone insane? I ordered this before you did.
- Let go. - Let go. Let go of it.
- What the... - What?
You little, how dare you.
No! Only one piece per shot.
We made a deal.
You've lost your mind.
You see, I used to be a highly sought-after lawyer too.
Because I was so successful,
I felt like the whole world was below me.
It makes no sense.
I completely believed that he was innocent.
Then I lost a grip on myself.
I got addicted to gambling and almost ruined my life,
but my brother-in-law...
I mean, Mr. Bang Dae Han saved me.
I was going to...
quit working as a lawyer if I failed to get him acquitted.
I told myself to become the ace of B and G Law...
so that I could repay him for all of his help,
but I'm just assisting a complete newbie now.
What is this mess?
Exactly. What should I do if he actually isn't innocent?
If the accusation wasn't false...
It's false! I really didn't do it.
The truth will come out when we find the culprit.
Yes, we must. We have to find the culprit.
We must find the culprit.
- Let's find the culprit! - Let's find the culprit!
- Friend, wait right here. - Friend.
- I'll get a taxi for you. - Okay!
Oh, here comes a taxi. Stop!
What's he doing?
Stop, stop.
Taxi!
Why is he with Ms. Seo?
- Stop, stop. - Nice, we got a taxi.
Hurry. Get in.
What are they doing here?
Thank you, friend. Bye!
Sir!
- "Sir"? - Please get my friend home safely.
Go on.
Sir, I apologize.
I had a few drinks.
I probably reek of alcohol now.
Yes, a little.
I'll tell you where my place is.
- Your place? - I'll give you...
the details when we get to the Sambu-dong intersection.
You have to...
turn into an alley and pass two lampposts.
It's a bit confusing.
Did you have a tough day?
You bet.
I signed a slave contract with...
a really disgusting guy.
- A slave contract? - Yes.
He's not just disgusting.
He's the type of guy not even a dog would play with.
Isn't that funny?
Did you just laugh?
- No. - You just did.
Anyway, I have to put up with a guy like that...
for as long as 15 years.
Don't you feel so sorry for me?
Don't you?
Darn it.
I just made the sound.
Would I actually spit in your car?
Did you think I did?
I'm pretty good at imitating sounds.
Listen.
That was a puppy.
That's an angry puppy.
That's a puppy pretending to be a wolf.
I took a taxi.
And then...
I acted stupidly.
It's okay. I'll never see him again.
The taxi fare.
No way. Did my friend pay it for me?
Seo Jae In. Do you have food poisoning?
"Friend"?
How dare you?
Hang up.
She's out of her mind.
Do you feel okay?
You were drunk last night.
How do you know that?
Did you pay the taxi driver?
Don't you remember?
Kang Gi Seok drove you home.
Lawyer Kang?
Yes, B and G's Kang Gi Seok.
Why would he do that?
Do you not remember...
- threatening to call the police? - The police?
I have to go.
Why is there no meter in your taxi?
This is illegal.
- Shall I call the police? - You can just go home.
Why? Do you feel sorry for me?
- I have money. - No...
I don't need your pity.
What's going on?
Professor. My dear professor.
I got in a taxi,
but there's no meter inside.
Let's go inside for now.
You're in real trouble now.
She's a really scary judge.
I don't believe this.
It's all because of the culprit.
I need to find him.
To do that, I need a holiday.
Hello.
Mr. Gu. Mr. Gu.
Yes, sir?
Didn't you tell her the rules?
- Not yet. - What should I do?
- Hey, Chirp Chirp. - What?
"What?"
Not only did you disturb...
my peaceful breakfast,
you went against the manners you value so much...
and ruffled your hair over the table.
I have a headache...
due to making the biggest mistake in my life.
You can forget about me and go on eating.
You're done anyway.
Calm down now.
I will train her right now.
My insides hurt. Can I eat this, Mr. Gu?
What are you doing?
That's rude, unhygienic, and impolite.
Weren't you done?
It's fine.
Eating leftovers won't hurt.
This is mushroom soup, right?
That is wild pine mushroom soup.
That's why the flavor's excellent.
I feel better now.
Forget the training.
I want her out of my sight.
That's it. She can work from home.
I'd love that.
I'd much prefer to work apart from you.
Shall I bring you some food?
I'm sorry, Mr. Gu.
I had to get thrown out today.
Sorry for being so rude.
I'll make it up to you tomorrow.
- That's fine. - Bye.
Detective, I won't take too much of your time.
I have the lead.
Stop it.
You're not allowed anywhere near him.
Will you please go away?
- Okay, fine. - Get lost.
Darn you all.
My gosh.
- Detective, please. - I said no.
- Detective, please. - Grab her.
Detective!
Is that your approach?
Then I'll do it myself.
The answer is always at the scene.
I'm going in.
The police aren't all stupid.
They wouldn't miss anything.
That hurt.
What? Professor Song Eun Hye?
She lives with Jae In?
Yes. Professor Song once gave a lecture...
at the judicial institute.
I didn't expect to see here there. I was surprised.
They weren't just teacher and student?
Are they distant relatives?
Did you already know Jae In?
No. We met for the first time in court.
Yesterday was about mistakes, misunderstandings, and alcohol.
Anyway, it's complicated.
She won't even remember me.
I can imagine.
Jae In is an oddball.
I looked into the trial's results and like you said,
she played a big part in it.
It's dangerous that we can't judge her capabilities.
Sorry.
Kang Gi Seok speaking.
Jae In.
Just a moment.
I guess she remembers me.
Hi.
I get the picture.
He used his looks to seduce Jae In...
to find out Monster Pervert's plan.
He's just as cheap and nasty as he looks.
He'll go to no ends to win.
Just like his mentor.
Do you know whose fault this is?
No, it wasn't me!
No. No. Just no.
Forget it.
Once I find the real culprit,
I will make you pay in spades.
You just be ready.
(Lawyer Min Ju Kyung)
Investigation Team? It's Min Ju Kyung.
Did you get anywhere on the assault case?
Not yet?
Okay, keep looking, please.
Bye.
You'll buy me dinner?
Can I pick the place then?
His tastes are simple despite his look.
But then again, not a lot of freaks who eat steak for breakfast.
I'm really sorry for what I did yesterday.
Gosh, it's okay. I actually had fun.
Then I'll assume that you just accepted my apology.
How did you manage to work with him for two years?
I don't know.
We didn't really clash that much.
Exactly. I'm asking you how that was possible.
I'm not sure.
But there's a saying in Rwanda.
"If you meet a mountain gorilla,"
"you'll end up marrying a beautiful woman."
What's that supposed to mean?
Are you refusing to teach me anything...
because I'm not good enough for you?
You're just like him when it comes to being cheap.
As expected from his mentee.
Do you hate him that much?
Are you talking about...
Monster Pervert?
Then what about you, Gi Seok? Do you like him?
"Gi Seok"?
Gosh, we're pretty much the same age.
We don't need to be so stiff around each other...
by being so formal.
You can also call me by my name.
Okay, sure.
Jae In.
That sounds nice.
Anyway, do you really like that fickle nagger...
who's always so obsessed with money?
Why do you only focus on how he seems on the outside?
Then are you saying he has another side to him?
Are you saying he has traits that are different...
from his money-crazy and inconsiderate personality?
It already sounds unbelievable as I said it out loud.
By the way, don't you have any questions for me?
For example,
don't you want to know if I have a girlfriend or not?
- Do you? - No.
See? I knew it.
If you worked for Monster Pervert,
you wouldn't have had any time to date anyone.
What about you? Do you have a boyfriend?
I definitely...
don't have a boyfriend. Why?
Because I neither have the will nor the time.
Not a lot of people do, but they still date.
Are you sure it's not because you're pushing people away?
I don't even have anyone in my life...
that I can push or pull.
Let's stop talking about something so boring.
Let's just drink.
Cheers.
This is nice.
Ma'am, one bottle of soju and some Pacific saury, please.
I'll be paying tonight, so order everything you want.
Let's get wasted tonight.
I drank with Kang Gi Seok.
I acted up a little.
But that was it.
And...
I must've been crazy!
Just die!
Yes, of course. Of course, you feel embarrassed.
Just die!
This makes no sense.
Isn't it illegal to share a taxi?
Who knows what he might do to me?
Look at his face. He looks so perverted.
Don't you know that it's illegal to share a taxi?
Sir, I'm sorry. Hey, Jae In.
Goodness, where do you think you're touching?
Sir, please take us to the police station.
Let's go to the police station!
What's this?
Where did you manage to collect all this trash?
You told me to find what to believe myself.
The police might've left out a few things.
Did you bring everything from the crime scene?
- Mr. Gu! Mr. Gu! - Yes, sir.
- Yes? - Throw everything away,
and fire this Chirp Chirp immediately.
We need a valid reason to fire her.
She damaged the crime scene and illegally gathered evidence.
She's not only causing damage to our firm...
but she's practically setting off a bomb.
Get out of here. Leave right now!
I won't.
Or let me leave without having to pay you back.
What? You don't want to pay me back?
You both need to calm down.
(Litigation Registration)
I was going to give these to both of you tomorrow,
but we're behind on schedule, so I moved things up a bit.
These are documents regarding our next case.
And these are trial documents that need to be taken care of.
You two should get started.
Let me tell you something as the manager here.
I don't want you two talking to each other as of this moment.
Does she think she's a prosecutor or a cop? She should know her place.
But that's probably why she did something so useless.
Her grades weren't probably good enough...
for her to apply as a prosecutor.
I feel so sorry that you ended up becoming an attorney.
If I became a prosecutor, I would've investigated...
and prosecuted all the attorneys that care more about money...
than the truth.
Goodness, you wouldn't have been competent enough to investigate me.
I can actually hear the T-Rex skeleton...
at the Smithsonian National Museum laughing its skull off right now.
"50 employees at Daesun Group committed obstruction of..."
My goodness.
"Litigation expenses consent form."
If you have time for useless stuff, bring me a case instead.
A case that can help you pay off your debt in just one go.
But I guess you're not competent enough.
I already started handing out my business card to places.
And I also applied to be a public defender.
Once I win a huge case and become famous,
you better not try to stop me from leaving.
You think I'd try to stop you from leaving? Really?
It might taste a little bland, so I brought you some honey.
Who wants some honey?
- Thank you. - No problem.
(Empty)
So, why were you wearing a pig's tail on your bottom?
Because I was told to do so at work.
I'm not crazy. Why would I wear something like that for no reason?
- At work? - Yes.
Yes, our company produces processed meat products.
But ever since our new CEO got appointed three years ago,
we're constantly...
being told to wear stuff like this.
This too.
We're not even humans.
We're either pigs, chickens, or ducks.
At first, it was a one-time thing...
to celebrate our company's foundation day.
But the chairman must've loved it...
because the person who planned it got promoted and became the CEO.
And after that, we're constantly being told to wear these.
Cock-a-doodle-doo!
We wear them every time we have a company dinner.
The Pork Team can only eat pork.
- The Duck Team can only eat duck. - Ducks say quack.
And the Chicken Team can only eat grilled chicken.
What we want to eat is never taken into consideration.
Thank you. Let's take a photo.
And it has become a given for us to wear costumes...
every time we go outside for sales.
But one day...
- I look forward to it. - Yes, me too.
Dad?
- Min Su. - Gosh.
Min Su's dad is a pig. Look at him.
He has a pig's snout and a pig's tail.
- Min Su's dad is a pig - Min Su's dad is a pig
- He's a pig - He's a pig
I hate you, Dad!
- He's a pig - He's a pig
- Min Su! - He's a pig
Since that incident, my son's classmates have been bullying him,
and he wouldn't even look at me when we're home together.
Why have you never complained and told them you couldn't do it?
Everyone who's complained...
got transferred to factories in the countryside.
Ms. Seo, please take on our case.
Every lawyer we've talked to...
rejected our case as soon as we said it's against Daesun Group.
Okay, please don't worry.
I'll make sure you're not treated unfairly.
This is considered abuse of authority...
as well as unfair labor practice.
But how much are your fees?
It'll be a reasonable amount,
so please don't worry.
- My gosh. - Thank you.
- Thank you! - Thank you!
- We're in good hands now. - We can put our worries to rest.
Oh, my.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
Mr. Bang!
Mr. Bang! Mr. Bang...
Mr. Bang.
- Hey, you punk. - My apologies.
Oh, this is super urgent.
Monster Pervert finally took on a case.
What? Are you sure?
Yes, my source at the court told me.
I double-checked with him.
Here you go.
(Warrant of Attorney, Go Tae Rim)
Call an emergency meeting. Now!
- Nice! - Let's go.
- Put on your pants. - Hang on a second.
We're human beings!
Guarantee us a normal working life!
- Guarantee it! - Guarantee it!
The management...
must stop abusing its authority.
- Stop the abuse! - Stop the abuse!
Have you tried contacting the lawyer I told you about?
I vetted her, and she has no experience.
If we hire such a newbie to represent us,
we certainly won't win.
If we want to fight this and win, we must find a proper lawyer.
(Fight)
I told you I got a case for us. Why are you laughing?
You had brought trash in the past,
and now, you even brought a trashy case for us.
It'll be worthwhile for us.
What our clients can pay us determines the value of each case.
This isn't about money.
Poor people don't deserve to hire me.
And you should always remember that you're indebted to me.
I'll take this case on even if you're against it...
so that I can clear that darn debt...
in one blow.
Chirp Chirp, what do you even know about...
business management and corporate culture?
I've worked on a number of corporate cases at the other firm.
Since you're such an expert, why did you buy "Corporate Culture 101"...
and "Organizational Tasks 101"?
("Corporate Culture 101")
Hello, Lawyer Seo Jae In speaking.
Pardon me?
You're going with another lawyer?
I see, it's okay. I'll be rooting for you.
Thank you.
I guess someone else collected the trash.
All right, then. Shall we head out and go meet our client?
Get ready.
(To, Lawyer Seo Jae In)
Lawyer Seo Jae In?
We're human beings!
Guarantee us a normal working life!
- Guarantee it! - Guarantee it!
Gosh, I knew it. You were teasing me, weren't you?
So you've decided to take it on, right?
- Stop the abuse! - Stop the abuse!
Why must we be called pigs?
We're human beings too.
- We're human beings too. - We're human beings too.
The management must stop abusing...
I'm the CEO of Daesun Meat and Poultry, Oh Chul Soo.
I've heard so much about you.
I heard you're incredibly skilled in this area.
You've been misinformed.
I'm the best at everything.
Look at them.
Those employees...
have ruined the company's image, and we're suffering big losses.
I bet, but please put your worries to rest.
Defamation by spreading false information online,
obstruction of business caused by such defamatory attacks, and so on.
The list goes on.
Human rights violation by forcing them to wear costumes...
and transferring employees for complaining.
That's considered unfair labor practice.
Human rights violation and unfair labor practice? What do you mean?
She's just saying you should be...
prepared for what the opponents will claim.
Follow me.
Stop the abuse!
What on earth was that about?
Do you have no conscience? How could you represent the company?
Conscience doesn't earn us money!
Keep your mouth shut, okay?
Guarantee it!
- Guarantee it! - Guarantee it!
Then what about the fees that I mentioned to you?
Put your worries to rest and just wait.
I'll make sure I silence those employees of yours.
Money, money.
Faust sold his soul for money.
My gosh, I now fully understand why they call you Monster Pervert.
I at least have something to offer and sell.
Can you offer anything people would be willing to buy?
You money-grubbing evil man.
You'll fall right into the fiery pit when you die!
(Legal High)
He should've checked his pig's tail when he was getting off the taxi.
This soft, gentle...
The more I get to know him, the more heartless I think he is.
- Why don't you just trust him? - Pardon?
Yoon Sang Koo! Yoon Sang Koo!
- Have Mr. Yoon handle it. - No, I can't do that.
Go Tae Rim Law Firm's reputation depends on this.
He won't lose easily.
Yes, sir.
I'll do my very best.
After staying up all night
What about justice, then? Where is it?
All lawyers must fight with all of their might for their clients.
Once you forget that, you lose the right to be called a lawyer.
Do you understand, Chirp Chirp?
Well, lift your arms higher.
Move your waist too!
1, 2, 1, 2.
You watch.
You just watch, Chirp Chirp.
Wait and see, Chirp Chirp!
