Episode 5
Who's calling so early in the morning?
I'm meeting with a client. I will be one hour late to work.
Alright, I understand. It's cold outside today, so make sure you wear something warm.
Did I do too much?
You dress warmly too, Oh Jin Sim.
Since he insisted so strongly that I wear something warm,
I'll dress warmly.
As expected, pink is always right. It's so pretty.
The doors are closing.
One moment! Hold on a moment! Aigo, thank you.
Oh! It's Lawyer Kwon.
The doors are closing.
We ended up meeting again in the elevator without fail. Even though I came to work an hour late because I was meeting with a client.
If someone heard that, they would think that I was crazy over you and waited in front of the elevator every day because I wanted to see you.
I'm also an hour late because I was meeting with a client, you know.
- Oh, right. I have some good news— - I'm not curious.
There has never been a single time after hearing your "good news" that I have been really happy.
I'm for real this time. I have two pieces of seriously awesome, seriously happy news.
Which one should I tell you first?
One is big news, and the other is small news. Okay.
A man should be big-scale, so I'll tell you the big news first.
I think our Always is going to take on a huge case.
It's pretty much 99% certain, and if we end up taking it, we'll definitely become a hot issue.
Just what kind of case is it?
That's a secret.
Alright, we'll move on to the small news. We're having a company dinner today.
Lawyer Kwon! Lawyer Kwon, why aren't you responding?
- I said that we're having a company dinner today! - I'm not going.
Why can't you enjoy something happy?
- I'm late. - You're here?
What is all this?
It's really pretty, isn't it?
Spring is coming now, so I decorated everything with pink.
Even though spring is coming, decorating a lawyer's office all pink is a little...
So? You're saying that I can't?
Do you know what you are doing is infringing on my right to pursue happiness and the universal right of freedom of action?
- How do you know about...? - You said so at the drive-in theater.
I have a good memory, so I remember everything.
Alright. Well, do as you please.
What is all this?
I thought that it was stingy to just decorate my room.
But, still, I like black more than all pink.
No matter how much you like black,
if you use pink a little bit sometimes like this, your mood will go up.
You should assure my right to pursue happiness and universal freedom of action, as well.
Fine. I just have to remove them.
This strawberry.
Ah, and this.
- Take this, too. - Just use it.
If I'm not here and you want to tell me something, I'd like you to write it there and stick it on my desk
so that neither of us will forget it. Then...
Then.
Wait, this...
Yes.
I'll send you the certification of contents as soon as I can.
♫ Here you and me now to this moment ♫
♫ I'm trying to put and hold in a place deep in my heart ♫
♫ The touch of one hand comfortably over another ♫
Please send the certification of contents to Jeong Da Hyeong.
♫ Remember everything, they are so precious ♫
♫ So make it count ♫
Yes. ♫ Please remember today ♫
♫ A light wind and blooming flowers, ♫
♫ one minute one second make it count ♫
♫ Then make me everlasting. ♫
♫ I will gather every moment and I will give them to you ♫
Yes, sir!
She could have just said it. ♫ Time passes again ♫
♫ (la la la la) ♫
♫ I shall hope. Make it count ♫
♫ Lazing on a bench in the afternoon Lie down comfortably, pillowed on my lap ♫
Please submit an application for a change in the date of Park Jae Hyeon's hearing which is set for next Tuesday.
♫ Because the gravity here is exactly twice as much ♫
Changed to February 26 at 3 p.m.
Please request production of the detectives' records from Prosecutor Baek Seon Myeong of the Cheongju District Office.
Document request, completed.
Please verify and tell me the deadline for Han Sang Cheol's appeal.
The deadline for Han Sang Cheol's appeal is the 27th.
You worked hard. I'm sorry for making you work too much.
No big deal. No matter when or what it is, just say the word!
♫ Then make me everlasting. ♫
♫ I will gather every moment and I will give them to you ♫
♫ Stick close so that there will be no gap where I long for you ♫
♫ I shall hope. Make it count. ♫
Oh yes, this is Lightning Quick Delivery, right?
I'm Lawyer Dan Moon Hui from Always Law Firm.
Yes.
I have something to send through express delivery.
Yes. I'll be waiting.
Ah, I wonder what he thinks of me.
Does that person also
like me? Or not like me?
He likes me. He doesn't like me. He likes me. He doesn't like me...
- He likes... - You!
That person must also like you, too, Lawyer Dan.
But, I've seen it done with petals, but this is the first time I've seen it done with tangerines.
This is my first time trying it, too. Because I'm so frustrated trying to figure out how he feels.
What kind of person is he? Is it still just a one-sided crush?
I'm not sure.
I think that he likes me, too.
Do you want to hear about it?
Yeah, sure. I'm totally curious.
Well, he's the express courier who comes to our law firm frequently.
He talks to me in a different tone of voice than everyone else.
To other people, he just says, "You called for an express delivery, correct?"
But to me, he speaks in a high voice and says, "Your delivery is here!"
As if he's excited to see me! That's not the only thing.
If you order something through quick service five times, then they give you the sixth delivery for free.
But even though I haven't ordered more than four times,
he gave me this key chain for free.
When one loves it's why one wants to give generously.
Wow, it's pretty!
That person must have fallen head over heels for you, Lawyer Dan.
Really?
Since you've said that and you have a lot of dating experience, I totally believe it.
I don't have any dating experience, though.
Ah, that's right! I saw it in an interview.
I heard that you've been single your whole life.
But even though I don't have dating experince, I am a good dating coach.
I was the MC of the center room of the couple matching program.
So from what I can see,
- this is 100% for certain. - I don't know!
Yay!
It's a secret.
What in the world?! She must really like him!
Tangerines?
Shall I try it one time, too?
Alright.
He likes me. He doesn't like me.
He likes me.
He doesn't like me.
Likes me, doesn't like me, likes me, doesn't like me.
He likes me!
Oh Jin Sim, it's time to go to trial.
Alright.
Because the defendant's alibi was proven, in other words,
the fact of his absence from the scene, as a result of the thorough interrogation of the principal witness,
I ask that the defendant be acquitted.
Seems like we will win, right?
Yes, maybe.
Don't pretend to be so humble.
Since you're smiling, that means you're already certain of it.
You look so happy because you're going to win. I think you're born to be a lawyer.
By the way, why did you become a lawyer?
I heard most of your colleagues became prosecutors.
Lawyers get paid more.
What? Did he just say he became a lawyer for the money?
He's so honest! He gets more charming the more I get to know him.
It's already lunch time. Shall we eat first and go?
Sure.
What's that?
Oh, that's right!
What if she asks him out for coffee again?
No, since it's lunch time, she may ask him out to eat together.
Aren't we going?
I'm coming! Let's go!
Kwon Jeong Rok!
- There's a UFO! - What is it?
Look! It went that way!
Hurry up! Let's go!
Hey, Jeong Rok!
Hey.
Had a trial?
Yes.
We're meeting quite often recently.
So, you don't like that?
You're here too, Secretary Oh.
Yes, well...
If you have time, shall we do lunch? How about pasta?
Pasta?
To be honest, I have something to tell you.
- Is it something important? - Yes, extremely.
And... it's kind of a secret too.
I'm sorry but will you please go ahead?
Pardon?
Go ahead?
He promised to eat with me first! Why is he not keeping the promise?
I like it so much...
I mean the pasta!
So, what's that important and secret thing you have to tell me?
You know that case of Im Yoon Hui?
I will be in charge of it.
A women who was assaulted by her husband for several years
stabbed him to death while being assaulted?
Would this be a murder or self-defense?
What do you think?
But if self-defense is once accepted,
it's a burden for the prosecutor in charge of course,
and every other victim in the future will plead self-defense
and every lawyer will cite this as judicial precedent and assert self-defense.
It's quite a sensitive problem for us.
In this situation, it's hard to determine what exactly should be said.
Yes, isn't it?
It's not that I expected an answer when I asked.
I just took this case as a golden opportunity,
but I feel a bit clueless.
Shall we go have a cup of coffee?
No thanks, I have to head back now.
Why? Isn't it still lunch time?
I have something to do. Let's meet again next time.
I wonder what's making him so busy.
Why are you there?
This, I'm going to take it back.
You're not someone who deserves to posses these memos.
Is a qualification required? To have a memo?
Why? You said you don't want it and now you do?
No, but I'm just wondering why you're taking back what you gave already.
That's up to the donor's intent. If you have a complaint, just sue me.
It's not something to sue over.
There's still 20 minutes left. Why don't we go out for a quick lunch?
I don't feel like eating!
I feel like you have been glaring at me since earlier.
No, I'm not. I hear a lot that I have a piercing gaze.
Actors are supposed be strong at staring at the cameras.
Thank you. Work hard.
- Excuse me, - Yes?
Yes? Do you have something to say?
This may be presumptuous, but let's eat something together one day.
- Pardon me? - How about tomorrow? Shall we go eat something delicious?
Umm... I don't think I'll be hungry tomorrow.
Then, let's go to a movie! Do you like romantic movies?
- How is "Love of Titicaca"?
I saw it yesterday.
It's being released tomorrow.
Oh... it's tomorrow...
I'll just speak directly.
I like you too.
"Too"?
So... I want to see a movie together
and eat out together to get to know more about you.
Umm, I'm sorry but this situation is too sudden.
Could you give me some time to think about it?
Of course!
- For how long? - About 10 years?
Take care.
I'll head home right after meeting with the client.
Okay.
Did I do something to hurt you?
Is it because I didn't keep the promise before to have lunch together?
No, it's not.
Then, why?
Do I have to tell you everything?
Don't you know about the freedom of privacy in our constitution?
Did I tell you that too?
Nope. I studied on my own. It's in Article 17 of the constitution.
Anyway, that is not what's important now!
Okay, freedom of privacy. I'll keep that in mind.
Wait.
I want to ask one thing.
Between the movie "Avatar" you watched in 2009
and the one we saw last week, "What's Wrong with the Lawyer,"
which one did you like more?
Pardon?
Which one was more fun and memorable to you?
"Avatar" was unique so it was fresh
and "What's Wrong with the Lawyer" was fun because I empathized with it a lot.
So, you mean...
you like both? You can't give up either one of them?
You're such a bad person!
Then, I'll see you on the day of the trial.
Yes, let me know if you need anything more.
Take care.
Please verify each person who will be attending as a witness
on the day of next week's hearing and tell me at court.
"kk"?
Why in the world is she acting like this?
Would it have been better to have gotten a private room?
Yoon Seo, is it okay to have the firm meal in this open space?
Of course. I will sit in the corner.
Is Lawyer Kwon not coming again?
Has he ever obediently attended a company dinner?
Over there. He's obediently attending.
Cheers!
It's been a long time since we all got together.
Ms. Dan, why are drinking so fast?
She was dumped again
by that delivery man.
Really?
Wow, how quick is that? She fell as fast as lighting and was dumped as fast as lighting.
You must be busy to be dumped every once a week. Once a week, consistently, her heart is broken.
Pardon me?
Anyway, what happened? Even up to this morning, you said you weren't coming.
What changed your mind?
Well...
Why are you looking at Yoon Seo?
No way. You came to see her?
Yes, I came to see Oh Jin Sim. I did.
Wow. That's straightforward.
Then, are you two in a "some" relationship?
What do you mean, "some"? What kind of nonsense is that? No way.
But then why is he saying something so weird?
It's not something weird. I really came to see her.
I have something to ask her.
Like what?
She's been diligent working and very enthusiastic, trying to study the law.
However, for some reason, today her work attitude has been very half-hearted
and she complained to me.
I know she won't do that without a reason so I came here to ask about it.
Oh Jin Sim, why in the world are you angry at me?
Oh, Jeez.
Wait. Why are you asking that when everyone is here?
Yes, I want to hear what you say in front of everyone else here
and if most people think it's my problem, I will try to fix it.
So, please feel free to speak up.
You said that it's not because I couldn't keep my promise to have lunch with you.
Then could it be you are angry because I didn't let you decorate the office in pink?
What's all that?
Umm... It's just... I love pink.
Yes... I do...
But I decorated his room in pink but he didn't like it so I...
But that's not the reason.
Then, is it because I gave you too much work today?
Because I kept on writing on the memo about what to do?
Hey. This guy is so inhumane.
You should've made face-to-face contact when you had a request!
How uncomfortable would she feel if you just write the memo and throw it on the desk?
- Don't you think so too? - No, It's not about that!
Actually, I didn't have a specific reason but...
I was so hungry,
so I think I was a little overly sensitive without realizing it.
Oh I see.
I'm sorry that I behaved in a way that caused a misunderstanding, Mr. Lawyer.
It's nothing. I'm glad that the misunderstanding was cleared.
So it was nothing much, then!
Alright. Let's have a toast in the name of making up!
No, what toast?
Lawyer Kwon must feel at ease because the misunderstanding was cleared up. Hurry.
Cheers.
Good job!
Eat.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Lawyer, have a talk with me.
Yes.
Did we not clear up the misunderstanding?
So what else do you have to say?
Why did you do that?
- Why on earth did you do that? - Wait, what?
What happened between us two should just stay between us.
Why did you blab about it in front of a bunch of other people? Why?
What do you mean, blab? I told you this earlier,
but I wanted to hear what you had to say in a place where everyone else was,
and if the majority of them said I was wrong, I—
Is this a trial?
If you argue and try to find things out in front of a bunch of other people, that's a trial!
I'm sorry if I offended you. But I put in an effort to clear the misunderstanding—
Cleared the misunderstanding, my foot.
We still haven't cleared it, you know!
Why is that? Because there is another reason
why I'm angry at you, Mr. Lawyer.
What is that?
Why did you eat the pasta all by yourself?
Why didn't you eat with me? I wanted to eat it, too!
Then you've been acting like that all day because you couldn't eat pasta? Then let's go eat pasta tomorrow and—
Why did you do that? Why did you eat with someone else?
Pasta!
I also like pasta.
- You're here? - Yeah.
Oh, yeah. Joo Won said he saw you as he was passing by.
He said that you ate pasta with Yeo Reum today.
Is this that pasta talk again?
What do you mean, again? This is my first time talking about it.
So, what? What's wrong with eating pasta? What about it? Why, why?
I'm saying that I'm jealous.
What? Jealous?
Of course! I'm like this because I broke up with Yeo Reum for right now,
but I haven't gotten over my feelings for her yet.
But when I think about the person that I have feelings for eating pasta with another man,
do you think I wouldn't get angry?
Getting angry that you ate pasta with someone else...
Does that mean you have feelings for that person?
What?
Having feelings, he said...
Oppa. Shall we go to look at the sea?
Why are you saying something so random so early in the morning? You have to go to work.
That's right. I have to go to work.
Did you possibly drink alcohol and make a mistake again yesterday?
Who created alcohol?
You did. You so did.
That's what I want to ask. Who on earth created alcohol
so that it drives you to do unnecessary things every time you drink it?
What mistake did you make this time?
I don't know.
Yeah, right. Hurry up and tell me what you did! Then I'll be able to take care of it or make an excuse for you.
I don't know! I said that I don't know! I want to be alone, so let me out!
H-here?
We're almost at the law firm.
Already? We're already almost there?
What should I do? How should I act?
What should I do?
Hello.
Yes. Good morning.
Oh Jin Sim.
Yes?
In the case in which a judgment was rendered yesterday, please verify that the certificate of service of the judgment was done.
And please check to see if a notice of appeal has been filed.
Yes, sir.
Um... Mr. Lawyer.
About what I said yesterday.
Yes? What did you...?
When I asked why you ate pasta with someone else instead of me.
I asked you that as a friend.
A friend, you said?
Yeah. Women are naturally like that.
When I was in school, my closest and best friend
went to eat rice cakes with someone else. I was so upset about it.
I felt like my friend had been stolen.
But, honestly, we're best friends here at Always Law Firm.
Best friends?
Yes. We're totally close friends.
We work in the closest proximity to each other. We eat together.
We take care of cases together.
Where is a closer friend than that?
But since my closest friend looked like he was close with someone else,
I was a little upset. A little.
It's childish, isn't it?
My face isn't the only thing that seems younger than it is.
My mind is also younger than it seems.
So please forget what happened yesterday. Okay?
Yes, I understand.
Lawyer Kwon. The CEO is calling for you.
Alright.
I'll be back.
Yes.
What am I doing right now?
You said you have something to tell me.
Ah, have I not told you yet? Oh, I did. I told you.
I told you that I thought something good was going to happen, didn't I?
I told you that I thought we would take on a case that would make us become a big issue.
Were you disappointed in the end?
Just, well...
Here. Read this once. You're going to have to do it with this.
Isn't this the Im Yoon Hui case?
It's the hottest news out right now.
You defend her and get it declared as self-defense.
- I can't do it. - Why can't you? Why can't you do this?
If I give you a big case, you should be thankful and take it. Why are you rebelling again?
I'm not rebelling. I'm just not capable of doing it.
I am in charge of a total of 32 cases altogether right now.
But, still. It's a waste not to take a case that the whole world is focusing their attention on.
If it's that much of a waste, you should do it yourself, CEO.
You're not busy with anything these days. And you're not getting cast on any TV shows, anyway.
Let's not talk about TV shows. I'm not going to do them even if they ask me, anyway.
I just had a broadcast trauma.
I just wasn't in good condition that day, but there were so many hateful comments.
"Did you really pass the bar exam?" I was shaking like a trembling aspen. "Aren't you a puppet boss?"
It was too much. It was so humiliating.
So from now on, don't even mention the first syllable of the word "broadcast" ("bangseong") from now on.
CEO, right here, your cush...- ("bangseok")
I told you not to mention broadcasts in front of me!
- Your cushion fell— - No, don't!
Your cushion.("bangseok")
Is this a cushion?
This is a blanket.("banghae")
Anyway, you're taking this case.
Maybe it's because for a while you have been handling many public interest cases,
a women's organization requested you be in charge of it.
Ms. Im Arrested by Police for Murdering her Husband
From Victim of Domestic Violence to Murder
Read this carefully and if there are any other articles related to it, please find them.
Alright.
I saw this in the news.
Are you taking over this case?
It ended up that way somehow.
That's good.
If someone skilled like you defends her,
then won't this be acknowledged as a case of self-defense?
Oh Jin Sim, do you think this is a case of self-defense?
Yes. She said she was being severely beaten by her husband
and did it by accident.
It isn't that simple.
And for it to be acknowledged as self-defense, several prerequisites are needed.
Prerequisites?
Prosecutor Yoo Yeo Reum
Miss Lawyer, Miss Im Yoon Hui will arrive soon.
Alright. We'll keep it simple for today.
- She's coming! - She's coming, she's coming!
In order for it to be acknowledged as self-defense,
an attack against oneself or a third party has to occur.
And that attack has to be happening right then in front of one's eyes.
Finally, no matter how much one claims that an action was taken in order to defend oneself,
in the end, the level of action cannot be excessive.
To put it simply, no matter how much someone claims that they did something in order to defend herself,
that level can't be too excessive.
For example, if someone slaps you in the face with their hand,
you can't hit them with a weapon.
This does not get acknowledged as self-defense because it is an excessive defense of oneself.
There were similar cases in the past,
but none of them were acknowledged as self-defense by the supreme court in the end.
And the prosecution will use similar precedent as their basis.
Then you just have to use this opportunity to create a new precedent, Mr. Lawyer,
and have it declared as self-defense.
It's possible that she may have killed her husband on purpose.
Anyway, please find those additional articles that I asked you for.
Yes, sir.
Im Yoon Hui, from now on, I will refer to you as the victim.
You have the right to refuse to make a statement.
You also have the right to reject any questions.
Even if you don't testify, you will not be penalized
and you have the right to obtain legal representation during questioning.
Im Yoon Hui, have you received notice of your right to refuse to give a statement?
Then would you like to receive a lawyer's assistance
or shall we just start the interrogation?
- Why did you call me? - Why? Are you busy?
I was investigating Im Yoon Hui's case.
What do you think? Do you see a loophole?
I'm not sure. I think I should go to the detention center tomorrow and meet with Im Yoon Hui first for now.
As expected. You work hard at whatever work you take on.
So did you call me to see if I was working hard or not?
This person, seriously. Would I really have called you because of that?
Pick out a necktie for me. This one is for a fatally sexy guy
and this one is for a fresh guy. Which one is better?
What are you doing right now?
Actually, I got cast on a TV show.
They said they're coming to the law firm to interview me tomorrow.
Didn't you just say a little while ago that you wouldn't appear on a TV show even if they cast you because you have trauma from TV shows?
Confucius said,
"Our greatest glory is not in never falling,
but in rising every time we fall."
I failed at my first TV show appearance because I was a bit nervous,
but I'll put that failure behind me and rise once again.
If I happen to fail again, I'll get up once more.
I'm also going to get up right now.
I think I should drink some coffee because I've gotten so tired.
Okay, make mine nice and black.
Wait a second, Yoon Seo! What should we do about Yoon Seo?
The broadcasting station said that they were filming this and that in various locations,
so they didn't know the exact time they would arrive tomorrow.
It will be really troublesome if the filming team catches sight of her as they go back and forth.
But we can't make her go to the coffee shop the whole day because of that, either.
Well, things will work out somehow.
Can't this large law firm find a way to hide Yeon Soo?
Sexy guy
or fresh guy? What do you think? Is this one better?
- Go with the sexy guy. - Sexy guy.
This one is better.
Should I make you a cup of coffee as well, Mr. Lawyer?
No. I'll drink my own.
Oh Jin Sim, I'm going to the detention center to meet with Im Yoon Hui tomorrow.
- Would you go with me? - Me, too?
Yes. Well, you can't go with me to the lawyer reception area,
but if you go with me to the detention center, it will help you with your legal life in the future.
Of course! It would be much more helpful than not going!
Thank you for thinking of me to this extent.
Let's drink our coffee.
If it's the detention center, we'll drive the car
and go really far away.
Aigo. Then... We'll be...
Let's prepare as vigorously as the distance we are traveling,
because we're going to work. Yeah.
What should I wear tomorrow?
If my clothes are weird, then my mood will be brought down.
Then I won't be able to focus on work.
If my skin is dry, I won't be able to focus on work because I'll be worried about my skin.
I must be a true workaholic.
♫ Yes, for me everything is new ♫
♫ What will it be feeling like? You know, right? ♫
♫ Anything HIP and elegant ♫
♫ Well... that's complicated ♫
♫ Even if I'm acting as though I don't know, I'm pretending ♫
♫ Be careful not to be intimidated ♫
Mmm! ♫ Yes, I am 'Thunder" giving off flashes ♫
♫ Expect me to be loud ♫
♫ “Hi lovely! We’re beautiful no matter how we doodley” ♫
♫ It's hard. Try saying it more simply ♫
♫ My sincerity is visible ♫
Good morning, sir. ♫ My feelings are displayed there. ♫
That tie looks good on you. ♫ Perhaps a very heart pounding new day. So what you gonna do? What you gonna do ♫
Your necklace is pretty.
♫ Don't act like you don't know ♫
Please, get in. It's cold. ♫ You're going to fall for me ♫
♫ So what you gonna do? What you gonna do? Woo hoo! ♫
It's been so long since I've been on a drive. This is so nice.
This isn't a drive. We're going to the detention center to work.
If you're in a car, then it's a drive.
Yes. This is Kwon Jeong Rok.
Yes, I understand.
The detention center just got in touch with me. They said that their reception time has been delayed by two hours.
Really?
It's almost lunchtime. Let's go somewhere and get something to eat.
Actually, I made a lunchbox.
A lunchbox?
Well, it's a waste of time to go around looking for a restaurant.
I did it so we can save time and focus on work.
And eating a lunchbox outside with a pretty view is also my fantasy.
Well, we have a lot of time still. Let's do that.
Yes.
Shall we just go inside and eat?
I'll just eat here.
Why? It's cold here.
You said it's your fantasy.
You cook better than I thought you would.
Just how were you thinking I would?
I've played as a chef of Korean cuisine on a drama, you know.
Back then, I learned from a professional
and now I can cook Korean food like this easily even with my eyes closed.
An actress sure experiences a lot of different lifestyles as a part of the job.
I think it would be very interesting.
Back then, I was really happy.
Mr. Lawyer, when do you feel happy?
On payday?
What is that? You said that you became a lawyer because you can make a lot of money.
You must really like money.
This won't do. Let's go inside.
If you catch a cold, I'd be the only one at a disadvantage.
- What? Why would you be at a disadvantage? - Huh?
You're our law firm's ace,
so if it's revealed that you caught a cold while having a picnic outside with me,
how self-conscious do you think I'd feel?
That's a heavy loss of power.
Alright.
If you're cold, you should put your hands in the pockets.
Really?
- Thank you.- Yes, well...
I meant for you to put your hands in your own pockets.
It's cold.... I'm sorry.
My pockets...
Sunbaenim, aren't you uncomfortable living at your friend's place?
It's uncomfortable because he's such a prickly guy.
Then it wouldn't be nice to be stuck at home together on the weekends.
Do you want to go watch a movie with me?
I think that would be more uncomfortable.
It's Prosecutor Yoo Yeo Reum.
Her insides must be roiling these days because of Im Yoon Hui's case.
Why? Did she say something isn't going well?
Prosecutor Im was ambitious and wanted to take on Im Yoon Hu's case,
but Prosecutor Yoo took it on instead.
Prosecutor Im is seething with resentment. It's worse than just being earnest.
Ah, it's the new kid who came from the Special Forces. Kim Se Won's hanger-on.
But why are they sticking so close together? Are the two dating?
Her father is a glorious high-ranking public official.
The son of a hospital director and the daughter of a high ranking government official.
That's nice for them. Birds of a feather, right?
Yes, it is.
Prosecutor
Doesn't the new girl suit Kim Se Won well? They're both gold spoons (born into rich families).
Of course, the son of a hospital director and the daughter of a fraud suspect being together
doesn't make any sense.
Now that I look at it, you're really something. The evidence wasn't sufficient to convict your father of fraud,
and in the fallout of your ex boyfriend handling it with a nolle prosequi (not pursue prosecution), he was exiled to Chooncheon.
But how can you walk around so unashamedly? Man.
If it were me, I wouldn't be able to stay here.
What is it that you want to say?
That you can't hide your roots.
No matter how ambitious you get, you'll only be a mere prosecutor.
Sure, because you know this, you are even more vigorous
because you want to try to succeed, no matter how you do it.
Please stop.
Do you think the Chief Prosecutor gave you Im Yoon Hui's case
because you are skilled? It's because there is a use for you as a woman.
If you know, then don't overdo.
Do you want to wait in the car?
No, I want to look around, too.
As I told you, you can't enter the lawyer reception area with me.
I know at least that much. too.
Are all people here waiting for their trial like Ms. Im Yoon Hui?
It's not always like that.
Some have received their verdict, some are currently on trial, and some are waiting for their trial.
It's already 2 PM. Hurry up and go.
It's cold out. How about you wait in the car?
Why? Are you worried about me?
Yes. I'm worried.
If you catch a cold, I'm also losing.
Wait, why?
If you catch a cold, less work will be done.
Then, I would be burdened by even more work.
And if I catch your cold—
Wow, you are seriously going overboard.
Are you happy now?
It's really cold out. Don't be stubborn.
Look around cursorily and then wait in the car.
What? Is he worrying about me?
What, what, what is it?
Ms. Im Yoon Hui.
Can you explain what happened that day to me in detail?
It might be painful to remember that memory.
However, I need you to tell me truthfully what happened that day, without leaving out a single detail.
Are you unable to acknowledge the charge against you for the murder of your husband?
Are you reflecting over what you did?
I completely understand the fact that you were abused by your husband
for several years.
However, even as a victim of domestic violence,
murder cannot be justified.
Then...
What should I have done?
Should I have died?
Documentary Evidence
No matter how I look at it, it looks like self-defense.
How is it now that you've met her? It's self-defense, right?
It doesn't seem like a straightforward matter.
Now that you've met her, it seems you are even more confused.
Then, while you drive, I will read this even more intensely.
If I read it meticulously, I might find a breakthrough.
Please believe in me!
Yes.
♫ Left home, out on my own ♫
♫ Had to leave cause I had no choice ♫
She said she was going to find a breakthrough. ♫ Kept going ♫
♫ To find what I've lost through the years ♫
♫ Through all the noise, yeah ♫
♫ I see clear ♫
♫ Naming lights is the life I live ♫
♫ Sing my song for a thousand loud ♫
For a while, I was thinking and I guess I fell asleep.
Why didn't you wake me up when we got here?
Because you were sleeping so deeply that I would have felt sorry for waking you up.
- Did you wait a long time? - No.
Did I make a mistake while I was sleeping?
I don't know if I can call this a mistake.
But, you snored. A lot.
Me? Oh Yoon Seo?
Wow, that's impossible. I don't snore.
It's a joke.
What kind of joke is this when it's not even funny?
But, is it that detrimental if you snore?
Of course. I only wanted to show you my pretty and good side—
To me?
Yes. Because...
Because you are stricter than anyone else.
If I don't do that, you might see my flaws.
You've worked hard today.
Go home safely.
I'm crazy, crazy! How could I say that there? Am I crazy?
Yes, Office Manager. Yes.
There is something urgent I need to find out.
Im Yoon Hui's mother left home early because of domestic violence by her father.
So, she was living with her father. Since ten years ago, there is no way to verify whether her father is dead or alive.
Her father disappeared ten years ago.
Then, he is already considered dead.
That's right.
Her mother left home and her father is considered dead.
Her ex-husband died by fire.
And her new husband...
She has such a cursed fate.
That's right.
After she graduated from high school, she worked in markets, in retail stores, etc.
She lived while doing those kind of jobs.
She also worked in the insurance field.
Did you say insurance?
Do you think this case can be resolved?
I don't know. Whether it was an unintentional accident,
or an insurance fraud to get money will become the crucial point, I think.
Because Im Yoon Hui worked in the insurance field, they will be even more suspicious.
But, about Im Yoon Hui,
I did some research and her ex-husband also has a violent assault record.
Why did she marry again with such a violent man?
If she underwent it once, she would know how to avoid it.
I was a psychologist for one of my dramas.
Some women, even if they are assaulted by their husband,
will repeatedly forgive the husband if he begs for forgiveness.
They say it's a psychological problem.
I have applied for an evaluation of Im Yoon Hui's psychological status.
Yoo Yeo Reum
It's quite unexpected.
You know how difficult this case is for me.
Why are you standing across the court room aisle from me?
It's against the ethics of lawyers to reject a case where the client requested you.
If we need to consider the content of the case, the weight of the case, who knows whom at court,
then no case would be accepted.
I know, but you should've known, too.
No murder case in the court has ever been acknowledged as self-defense.
That's not important.
At any rate, I will reveal the truth of this case as best as I can.
If she is guilty, then she will receive the punishment she deserves.
If she is not guilty, then I will make sure she receives a non-guilty verdict. Because that's my role.
She will not obtain a non-guilty verdict
because that's my role.
Today is the first trial hearing for Im Yoon Hui.
The prosecutor is arguing that
Ms. Im, who is known to have accidentally killed her husband, actually premeditated murdering her husband.
Thus, she was charged with murder rather than unintentional homicide.
The defendant, Im Yoon Hui, and the victim, Kim Hyung Tae, were a legally married couple.
On January 21st 2019, in their home,
while the victim was being assaulted by Kim Hyeong Tae,
she threatened Kim Hyeong Tae with a knife she took from the kitchen.
She stabbed him once in his abdomen and once in chest thus murdering him.
The deceased, Kim Hyeong Tae, was a repeat domestic abuser.
It might seem like self-defense from the defendant who couldn't withstand her husband's abuse anymore.
However, if you look at the submitted autopsy report,
it is a murder committed with obvious intent.
What is the probability that the knife accurately hit those locations by chance?
Thus, I, as the prosecutor, charge the defendant Ms. Im Yoon Hui with murder.
Lawyer, please give your statement on the charge.
According to the emergency services dispatched at that time,
the defendant, Im Yoon Hui, had two fractured ribs
that were severely broken nine weeks ago.
If we assume that it was premeditated,
from a woman who has fractured ribs from nine weeks earlier,
what is the probability that she can accurately stab those locations?
Therefore, as her lawyer, I ask that you give her a not guilty verdict as it was self-defense.
At that moment, in order to survive,
aside from her will to live,
there was no intention nor plan to murder.
Defendant, your mother left home when you were ten years old.
What is the reason?
She was being hit by my drunk father.
Her head hit the floor
and bled a lot.
While my father was looking for something to hit my mother with,
she ran away.
Because she wanted to live.
I heard that your father began abusing you after that, as well.
Is that correct?
Yes, it is.
Her ex-husband, as well as the late Kim Hyeong Tae, were both violent people.
You must have remembered how hard it was to endure your father's abuse.
Why, of all people, did you meet with people who were violent like your father?
Your Honor, in order to help understand the victim's situation, I am calling a psychologist to the witness stand.
If you think about it, at first it will be hard to comprehend.
But if you live in a certain situation for a long time,
you build a tendency to think of it as the way things are supposed to be.
Could you please speak a little more specifically?
In the case of a child who was abused from childhood,
they can't discern that the abuse is wrong.
And at some point, they learn that it is to be expected.
And if that same kind of environment is not maintained,
they feel psychologically uneasy and eventually repeat the vicious cycle.
If we look at the psychological evaluation written by the expert witness,
when the subject has been exposed to years of abuse since childhood,
one cannot see any possibility that she would have an intact ability to discriminate.
You wrote that. Is that correct?
Yes. That was our conclusion.
In other words, as a result of her inability to discriminate, at the time of the crime in this case,
the mental status of the defendant Im Yoon Hui can be seen to be impaired.
Do you agree with this interpretation?
Yes.
That is all.
Prosecutor, will you question again?
Yes.
Im Yoon Hui,
There were claims on the life insurance policy of your prior husband who died by fire
and on your father who disappeared ten years earlier.
Is it true that you personally made those claims?
Yes, that is correct.
You were aware that the late Kim Hyeong Tae was also insured, correct?
Yes.
Do you know how much it was for, as well?
I don't know.
The total value of all the life insurance insuring Kim Hyeong Tae was 4.94 billion won.
That is a pretty large amount for you to claim you didn't know.
That will be all.
Are you pleading that she may have a mental disorder?
Anyway, well, even if you can't get it acknowledged as self-defense,
if you can pretend she's a victim who has been wronged and have her sentence reduced
by stating that she has a mental disorder, then there's nothing for you to lose from a lawyer's standpoint.
Don't speak like that.
Self defense and mental disorder are all legal principles in the Criminal Code.
If she gets acknowledged as having a possible mental disorder, I won't just stand still.
So don't relax unnecessarily
because this isn't a case that you can win.
Why are you so obsessed with Im Yoon Hui's case?
Because this is the only way.
You've been in a high position ever since you were born. You could never understand how I feel.
You're here?
- You're here? - I'm back.
Um... What about Lawyer Kwon?
Ah. He said that he was going to talk with the prosecutor in charge of the case,
so he told me to come back here first.
What happened with the trial today? A ton of articles came out.
Since your facial expression doesn't look to good, did we come out at a disadvantage?
Yes. The atmosphere was alright even after Mr. Lawyer pleaded that Im Yoon Hui may have a mental disorder,
but when there was talk of how much insurance money she would receive from her husband's death,
the mood leaned toward that side a lot.
Just how much was the insurance money from his death?
4.94 billion won.
4.94 billion? I'm sure that would disturb people.
Right? I also am suddenly suspecting that she did it because of the money, too.
Wow, what will our Lawyer Kwon do?
This case is a big issue in the news right now,
so if he loses the case, he'll become a huge target.
The verdict hasn't even come out yet, so why are you speaking like that?
Mr. Lawyer.
I'm back.
Um... Mr. Lawyer.
Don't worry too much about what people say.
I'm not worried about it,
because when you look at today's results, anyone could think that way.
Yes.
But, I think that you'll win the case.
Honestly, I thought that a lawyer's job only suited stern and logical people,
but I think you can only do it if you're warm-hearted,
like you, Mr. Lawyer.
Mr. Lawyer, you're unexpectedly warm-hearted and very considerate.
There was also a time when I felt like I was the only one in the world and felt so lonely in the past,
and there was no one who took my side back then.
I was at such a loss.
But if there had been a person like you by my side back then,
how nice would it have been? I've been thinking that.
Because you're such a great lawyer,
I believe that you will also resolve this case.
It's already this late.
Why haven't you gotten off work yet?
Ah... I was looking at some files related to self-defense
because I was wondering what I could do to be of some help.
Will you eat dinner with me?
Yes. I was actually really hungry.
Then let's go.
To be honest,
the reason that I became a lawyer
was because I wanted to be a person who stood by someone's side rather than a person who punishes them.
Oh.
But why did you say that it's because you make a lot of money back then?
Because it was somewhat embarrassing to speak honestly back then.
Then, why are you speaking honestly now?
Because now, I heard what you said and wanted to tell you for some reason.
I was thankful when you said that you believe in me earlier.
And also, if the time comes when you feel so lonely that it's as if you're the only one in the world,
and if you feel at a loss because you don't have anyone to stand by your side,
I will stand by your side at that time.
♫ Full of something I don't know ♫
Mr. Lawyer!
♫ Honestly, it's hard for me umm ♫

Hey, your Oppa was just—
Oppa?
Shall I make you a cup of coffee?
Wasn't I warned not to overwork you yesterday?

You've never dated, have you?
Because you seem to be so bad at it.
Someone said that I would definitely win the case.
So, please believe in me until the end and wait.
We're stepping into uncharted territory.
She could possibly be the only witness of this case,
