THIS DRAMA IS PURELY FICTIONAL AND IS NOT ASSOCIATED WITH
ACTUAL PEOPLE, INCIDENTS, ASSOCIATIONS, OR LOCATIONS
How about iced coffee?
Do you have anything else?
Then what can I get you?
I'd rather have it now. I'm thirsty.
But...
What are you doing?
Is this it?
The coffee we have is bad though.
Ms. Sim, why don't we go to a coffee shop?
I'd rather stay if you don't mind. I'm lazy to go outside.
Don't you want one?
No, I'm good, Ms. Sim.
Gosh, could you keep your voice down?
Look at all these snacks. This place is the bomb.
Is it?
Gosh, you've had enough.
It already seems like you put on three kilograms.
This is your evil spirit talking.
Go away, evil spirit. Let's go now.
Is that so?
You're super annoying, you know.
Get off me now.
- You're pressing against me. - You've gained weight.
Didn't you know that Yu-mi comes by my office?
You didn't handle her divorce, so why is she coming to you?
Ask her if you're that curious.
How is this just my problem?
This is messy for you too.
Did this never occur to you? Sim Yu-mi or not,
you coming here is a dangerous risk.
Avoiding it won't make it go away.
Would apologizing ease your guilt?
No, wait. Have you even properly apologized?
If you were going to barge in here to feed your greed,
you should've considered me as a variable.
You shouldn't have forgotten how our past
could always be revealed.
And what were we exactly?
Us?
Two people in love.
You need to let go.
- My goodness! - Oh, gosh.
My goodness, how embarrassing.
EPISODE 6
Have you
made up your mind?
Yes.
So are you going to cooperate with Ms. Jung regarding the D&T Case?
No, I'll continue to work on that with my team.
Both the internal investigation and helping them become a listed company.
- Hee-jae. - Mr. Song.
We've been on this for six months.
Let us finish it off. Please.
Don't you get it? It's not that I don't trust you.
The internal investigation
is pretty serious.
The prosecution is very determined.
They won't take it easy.
I don't intend on taking it easy either.
Listen, Hee-jae.
There are other people
who can take care of the dirty stuff.
The harder you try, the dirtier your hands will get.
Just take a step back.
If Ms. Jung takes care of it, and you succeed in listing the company,
the credit will go to you.
I want you to cooperate with Ms. Jung
regarding every single matter of the D&T Case.
Share all your materials.
This is an order as the representative lawyer.
Don't try to argue with me anymore.
Then
I'm going to do things my way.
I'll stay out of it
as long as you bring results.
But what if...
What if Ms. Jung fails?
She doesn't work for Song & Kim.
She only works for herself.
Are you sure
you can trust her?
- What about you? - I'm different.
I think of the firm as myself.
Because one day, I will become the representative lawyer.
You can look forward to it.
Should we start packing?
My butt hurt.
It was supposed to start at 2:00 p.m.
I know.
I thought Ms. Jung was in charge of D&T now.
I wonder what's going on.
It seems like a power struggle between Mr. Yoon and Ms. Jung.
Is Mr. Yoon also in charge of D&T's internal investigation?
Yes, according to the text.
Ms. Jung never officially got appointed to this team anyway.
And Mr. Yoon's team never got disbanded either.
Then we can just work with the person who wins.
What? Am I wrong?
Goodness.
You all took part in the company listing process,
so I'll keep it short.
D&T is a Fintech start-up company.
Apparently, the prosecution
is investigating them prior to their company listing for violating
the Personal Information Protection Act.
The Personal Information Protection Act?
"Those who illegally acquire
personal information and provide it to a third person
to make profits or for unjust purposes, and those who aid and abet
such behaviors shall be sentenced
to a maximum of 10 years or be fined up to 100 million won."
The Personal Information Protection Act. Article 70, Act 1.
Those who signed up for a membership had their personal information leaked,
and their names were apparently used for pornography sites.
The suspect
is CEO Son Jin-su.
A financial services company leaked personal information?
That's not good.
Does that mean they won't be able to become a listed company?
We can't give up yet.
First, we need to find out how much information
the prosecution has.
Once we do that, we'll do what we can to defend the company and get it listed.
Hee-jae, normally, when such things happen,
isn't it better for us to drop the case?
Mr. Song asked me to proceed with this case himself. Okay?
Do you all understand?
What do you think you're doing, Mr. Yoon?
Does it look like I'm eating?
Obviously, I'm working.
Isn't this supposed to be my job?
My job is to make sure D&T becomes a listed company,
so I'm getting ready to stop the prosecution
from carrying out an internal investigation.
You can go ahead and do what you need to do.
Your eyes are about to pop out.
Judging from the look in your eyes, I'm guessing you really mean it.
Of course.
You know me.
You must be very intimidated.
Nonsense.
This is Song & Kim, my home ground.
Do you all agree with him?
Is it too hard to work by yourself?
- Is that what it is? - Of course not.
I'd love to work alone.
But Mr. Song insists that I cooperate with you guys.
I also got an order from him saying I should proceed
with the company listing.
But if you still decide to work with Ms. Jung,
I won't stop you.
Right.
Okay then.
Let's start our meeting at 2:30 p.m.
We have 15 minutes left.
You all heard that, right?
Ms. Jung might get demoted and become a contract partner.
The steering committee is going to hold
a meeting today.
Mr. Song and I signed a contract.
So as long as that exists,
there's no way I'll get demoted to a contract partner.
My home ground is also over there.
I wish you all the best.
Good luck.
Gosh, you really are feisty.
Mr. Kim, are you joining me?
Let me get one thing straight.
Who's exactly in charge of the D&T Case? You or him?
Whoever wins.
I'll see you in my office in ten minutes.
My gosh, Yoon Hee-jae, that punk.
What are you going to do?
What do you think? I'll just stick to our plan.
It won't be easy.
Mr. Yoon and his team know a lot more about D&T than we do.
It won't be that hard. We have Mr. Kim.
Do you like pork rinds?
Yes. Why?
They're not that bad.
He's even a little cute. He really has a nasty temper.
It's a little motivating.
- Oh, gosh. - My gosh, it's heavy.
My goodness.
You wanted to know all the gossip on D&T.
You could've brought it in a USB or send it to us via email.
It's bad for your eyes to stare into a monitor.
- I'm guessing they're all here. - Really? Good.
Sir.
Are you really sure about this? We're going against Mr. Song.
Jeez.
He can focus on his job as the representative lawyer
while we do ours.
My gosh.
Many members of the steering committee are nervous because he's being so quiet.
My gosh, have some balls, will you? How will you ever achieve great things?
Don't you remember what we talked about
over dinner and drinks yesterday?
They all disagree with having Jung Geum-ja as an equity partner at Song & Kim.
I'm sorry.
Don-sik, it's time that Mr. Song learns
that a representative lawyer can't always do things unilaterally.
Okay, sir.
- Let's go. - Okay, sir.
According to the direction of the investigation, the prosecution seems
to be planning to charge CEO Son Jin-su for everything.
They claim that he illegally used the names of D&T members
to upload pornography
on a website called Foxer
and used that profit to buy cryptocurrency which earned him
a total of 4.5 billion won.
He violated the Personal Information Protection Act and uploaded porn.
They could punish him for forgery of private documents
and violating the Resident Registration Act.
Plus, his dad is Son Bong-u, the chairman of SS Group,
one of the top five corporates in Korea.
That's impressive.
Why would he do something like this? He's a conglomerate.
The global pornography market makes about
150 billion dollars a year,
which is about 176 trillion won.
A company in Korea uploaded 40,000 pornographic materials
with 950 IDs and made 7 billion won.
- It's a pretty big market. - I see.
- Mr. Kim. - Yes?
Based on the materials you have, what kind of person is Son Jin-su?
Son Jin-su is...
He had a very bad personality as a kid, so he didn't have many friends.
And back when he used to study abroad, his dad caught him doing drugs.
So he even got treatment for that.
But as he started his own business, he's become a lot nicer
and even quit doing drugs.
I didn't know this when we were getting ready for the company listing.
You can't judge a book by its cover.
Especially when it's a businessman.
People who work in finance all know that he used to be a psycho.
Based on an article, he even got married back when he studied abroad.
It was an arranged marriage with the second daughter of Eunsung Group.
I think his wife is still in the States.
It's just based on a few newspaper and magazine articles.
So it's just for reference.
- His wife is still in the States? - Yes.
I'm guessing that Son Jin-su might not have fixed his bad habits.
You have a point.
He might really be the one
who leaked all that personal information.
But we can't just assume that he's guilty
merely based on rumors.
Then we need to check how much the prosecution knows.
Find out what the investigation is actually based on
and how exactly they're carrying it out.
Of course. That's my expertise.
Mr. Kim.
Every time you hear something new regarding D&T,
- I want you to tell me right away. - Got it.
- Ji-eun. - Yes?
I want to know every single person of Son Jin-su's surroundings.
Mr. Na, gather all the articles
that got published during the past three years.
- Okay. Are you going somewhere? - I need to meet my boyfriend.
I'm going to meet Mr. Son.
Ms. Boo, I want you to check the KOSDAQ screening results.
Find out how much this case can cause the company to decrease in value.
Our goal is to get the company listed.
- Gi-hyeok. - Yes?
- You got that? - Yes.
- Okay? - Yes.
Mr. Yoon.
Judging from the look in your eyes, I'm guessing you really mean it.
Of course.
- You know me. - Of course.
Let's start our meeting at 2:30 p.m.
This is Song & Kim, my home ground.
Why do you hate Ms. Jung so much?
It seems like
you hate her more than necessary.
I don't like the way she handles her cases.
Did that answer your question?
Ms. Boo.
Do you like Hee-jae?
I'll send you the files via email.
See you.
Files on Hee-jae?
Why did nobody come?
Are you sure they got the message?
Yes, I even double-checked this morning.
Then why...
Damn it!
Mr. Choo, will you excuse us?
Okay, sir.
You could've called me to your office instead of coming here.
Seok-gu.
- Yes, sir. - You gathered the steering committee?
Yes.
And the agenda is to demote Ms. Jung to a CP
instead of keeping her as an EP?
The attorneys aren't very happy with her recruitment.
You seem to care so much about them.
But you don't care at all about me.
You're the only son of a single mother, right?
Yes, sir.
You graduated from a prestigious university.
But you didn't know how to escape poverty.
So you studied day and night
- and finally passed the bar exam. - Yes, sir.
Do you remember what I said to you when you got hired
at Song & Kim?
Do you remember it or not?
"You'll never have to go back.
You just overcame something huge in life."
That's what you told me.
I fed you meat when you were poor.
And now, you are asking me for wine as well?
I'm sorry, sir.
I had no intention to go against you.
- Does it hurt your pride? - No, sir.
Seok-gu. Ma Seok-gu!
Does it hurt your pride because I appointed a nameless lawyer
as an equity partner?
No, sir.
Stay where you've always been.
Right beside me.
Okay, sir.
Just do as you're told.
If you don't want to live the rest of your life giving legal aid,
just stay here at Song & Kim,
and get rid of that useless pride.
Okay, sir.
Good.
Hello, I'm Yoon Hee-jae. I'm from Song & Kim.
Just a second.
Mr. Yoon Hee-jae from Song & Kim is here.
RELIABLE TECHNOLOGY AND SERVICE
Mr. Son is still in a meeting, so you'll have to wait.
- Sure. - Your colleague came here a bit early.
- My colleague? - You're late.
Let's go.
Can you get him a cup of coffee?
- He has a serious addiction for coffee. - Okay.
- What are you doing here? - Why do you ask? Isn't it obvious?
I guess we clicked.
- She asked if I came with you. - You should've said no.
Go tell her yourself then.
From now on, I want you to share everything you have on Mr. Son.
Everything including his schedule, stance, and statement.
I want to know every little detail whether it's important or not.
Why would I do that?
You told me to do my job.
Did you forget Mr. Song's order?
- I'm going to talk to Mr. Son. - Sure, go ahead.
It's been a long time.
I heard it's always better not to meet your attorney too often.
- Who is she? - It's nice to meet you, Mr. Son.
I'm Jung Geum-ja, a partner at Song & Kim.
Nice to meet you.
I'm Son Jin-su.
It's totally absurd.
We're very close to becoming a listed company.
So we're trying our best to keep our information secure.
We never leaked any personal information.
Then were you not aware
that someone within the company had leaked internal information?
No, I had no idea.
- Is there anyone that comes to mind? - No.
The people who are still here
have been with me from the very beginning.
They've been working hard for years
hoping that the company will get listed one day.
Who'd do such a thing? For what reason?
Some people could. For whatever reason.
Whoever that may be.
It sounds like you're implying I could be that person as well.
Yes, of course.
She's just saying we should keep all possibilities open.
This sensitive issue broke out at such a crucial time,
so we must make sure we don't make any mistakes.
We'll investigate the matter internally.
Please allow us to interview your employees.
That will be difficult.
They're young, so they get distracted easily.
Especially if
they're dealing with someone who's as aggressive as you.
- I was just kidding. - The porn site, Foxer.
Have you heard of it?
Foxer.
Well, must I know about it?
D&T customers' personal information were used on that site.
And in return for that, someone received 4.5 billion won in cryptocurrency.
You've heard nothing about that either?
I don't know anything about it.
What do you mean?
The prosecution is internally investigating it.
At the moment, it's only circumstantial evidence.
Are you interrogating me right now?
You two are lawyers, not prosecutors.
I can be a little aggressive, you know.
I apologize if we made you uncomfortable.
We need to check all the facts if we're going to represent you, sir.
If you think it was rude,
I apologize on Ms. Jung's behalf.
I'm a little sensitive these days because of what's going on.
I understand.
I know nothing about what you mentioned.
This is my first time hearing about the data leak.
And Foxer? I don't know anything about that.
Cryptocurrency?
I'll look into that.
Are you really a lawyer? Do you even have a plan?
I like to get things done fast.
We get nothing if the client doesn't trust us.
Son Jin-su is the type that likes to be provoked.
- Jeez! - And you.
Don't trust the client too much.
You know that people only say things that will put them at an advantage.
- I left something. Don't wait for me. - Hey.
- Why are you back? - Gosh, there it is.
Got something else to say?
I left this.
I'm sorry.
By the way,
you're pretty famous.
Everyone knows you're Chairman Son Bong-u's son.
What about it?
Chairman Son Bong-u is known to be a financial backer for prosecutors.
And there are rumors about a campaign slush fund.
- So? - Why is the prosecution
doing an internal investigation for a case like this?
On the son of Chairman Son of all people.
This case has nothing to do with my father.
I hope that's true.
Don't associate me with my father.
This is my company and my job.
Okay, understood.
I'll see you soon.
How about the entry and exit records?
Then he didn't leave the country.
Then why haven't we tracked him down yet?
Find him as soon as possible.
I don't care how much it'll cost. Let's settle.
Hurry. We don't have time.
Why are you back?
I knew it. Something's definitely fishy.
Something's very fishy.
[Netflix Ver] SBS E06 'Hyena' -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-
- Song & Kim? - Yes.
I wonder why they hired you.
Because it's me.
That's why.
Be careful. That world is certainly different.
Do I have more to lose?
Head of Criminal Affairs 1 at the Seoul Central Prosecutors' Office,
Park Hyeok-gwon?
He's famous for only picking cases that will cause scandals.
- Prosecutor Park. - "Violated the Personal Information Act
and speculated to have hidden 4.5 billion dollars in cryptocurrency"?
It's all circumstantial evidence.
We'll get Son Jin-su with this alone?
There's got to be more.
A witness.
We received a tip.
So there's a witness.
Kim Yeong-jun.
All we have is circumstantial evidence and a name.
Do you know
that I had to eat dinner twice today just to find out that name?
And this is crucial.
It's about to be forwarded to a prosecutor
who specializes in such cases.
- Park Hyeok-gwon, a senior prosecutor. - He's very persistent.
What's he like?
People say he's like a venomous snake.
Once he bites you, you're dead.
We were expecting this much. This keeps things interesting.
We need more information
on Kim Yeong-jun's relationship with D&T and Son Jin-su.
Okay.
Hi, Ms. Sim. My phone was on vibrate because I was in a meeting.
The witness' name is Kim Yeong-jun, one of D&T's founding members.
Then he and Son Jin-su must've been close.
Until he left the company a year ago.
- Any evidence? - Nothing concrete yet.
But the prosecution has made a move, so...
If it hasn't been forwarded yet...
- We can do it. - Will you be all right?
I need more intel on Kim Yeong-jun. Everything about his past too.
I hope you're eating well.
I am eating very well.
The D&T Case is about to be forwarded to the prosecution.
The key is the fact that there's a witness.
Okay.
Got it.
The D&T Case is about to be forwarded to the prosecution.
- Are you sure? - Yes.
Jeez. Once the prosecution gets it, rumors will spread.
It's only a matter of time before the stock price plummets.
It'll affect the company going public.
The Stock Exchange is conducting a preliminary evaluation,
but if they have to do another evaluation...
Gosh, they can't go public.
It sounds like Ms. Jung will try to meet with the witness first.
Do you think the witness will meet her willingly?
She'll make it happen, no matter what.
But if Son Jin-su really is the culprit,
what should we do?
Well, I guess we'll have to either kidnap the witness
or burn all the evidence.
I mean, that's usually how Ms. Jung does things.
Anyway, okay.
Sorry I kept you waiting long.
Why didn't you answer my calls?
- Do you know how many times I called you? - I was in a meeting.
Did something happen?
I'm in deep shit.
- What do I do? - What's wrong?
Those guys are like gangsters.
They took over my office
and threw things at me. They kept yelling too.
What do I do? What should I do now?
I'm worried too.
Gosh. I said I'd call the police, so they ended up leaving.
But they said they'll be back.
Those thugs...
Even if a few underlings get arrested, they won't even bat an eye.
Jeez, that makes me feel much better.
Oh, sorry. What I'm trying to say is, you need to get to the bottom of this.
The interest is thrice of the principal.
How am I going to get this all sorted out?
The money is one thing, but I'm just so terrified.
My goodness.
Thank you.
- I should just get drunk. - Gosh.
Easy. Don't drink too fast.
This is enough to get me drunk.
What?
Gosh, that's enough.
I'm not sure if I can say this, but...
What is it?
- Are you smitten with me? - Yes.
No, I mean...
I was going to say...
Gang Sang-sik,
the CEO of We Wire Money, the company that invested in you.
Do you know who his lawyer is?
No idea.
Jung Geum-ja.
Actually, I've been so curious.
Why did Hee-sun lie and introduced herself as Jung Geum-ja?
- You got it all wrong! - Gosh, you scared me.
Her real name is Jung Geum-ja, not Hee-sun.
Either way. Why? Why did she do that?
You frustrate me so much.
You know, my name is Sim Yu-mi.
Use Jung Geum-ja.
Then things will work out, slowly but surely.
But use her in what way?
I'm not following at all.
Threaten her that you'll tell everyone
about her calling herself Hee-sun and going out with Hee-jae.
How's that going to help me?
I have to say, you look
very handsome today.
You look beautiful too.
Gosh, all right. This is a top secret.
You can't tell anyone, okay?
I feel so bad for you,
which is making me emotional. That's why I'm telling you this.
Okay? Listen.
HERIGE NURSING HOME
I'll check her vitals.
Do you see any improvements?
You take such great care of her,
but she's just not getting better.
She'll wake up someday.
Don't hesitate to let me know if you need anything.
Thank you.
Your sister, Min-joo,
will return to Korea soon.
I'm sure you'll be happy about it,
but I'm a little worried.
She's bold and straightforward, just like your father was.
You know?
This is a crucial time, so if she gets in my way again...
I may lose my patience.
I'm worried, honey.
Be patient with her?
Right, I should.
Okay.
The D&T Case is about to be forwarded to the prosecution.
So it'll be all about the witness now.
All right. Who's in charge?
Prosecutor Kwon Yong-un, sir.
The case will be handled by Park Hyeok-gwon, a senior prosecutor.
Prosecutor Park and Prosecutor Kwon.
As for Prosecutor Park, I'm planning to shake him up a little tomorrow.
All right. You'd better bring your A game.
- Yes, sir. - Do you find it
a little easier to work with Ms. Jung now?
Well, I'm sure she's not just sitting around idly.
Hee-jae.
Keep your personal feelings separate.
Yes, sir. Please give me a little bit of time.
What I'm saying is, you should use what you can.
That's how you produce results.
Yes, sir.
Okay.
Kim Yeong-jun's address is Unit 607, Munwon Apartment, Dangsan-dong.
DEPUTY CHIEF PROSECUTOR JO U-JONG
Come in.
Look who's here!
What a surprise.
- How have you been? - Great.
Hee-jae, you're all grown up now.
- How's your father doing? - Good.
Right, he's been appointed Supreme Court Justice.
- Yes, he'll be even busier now. - I know.
Park Hyeok-gwon?
He's a veteran who mainly takes on big cases.
I think he wants to get into politics down the road.
This case too. He's probably going all out because it involves
the son of SS Group's chairman, Son Bong-u.
What's he like?
I'd say he's the aggressive,
egotistical type?
The location is...
SENIOR PROSECUTOR PARK HYEOK-GWON
- Who might you be? - Hello.
I'm Yoon Hee-jae.
Oh, boy. Song & Kim.
No wonder you look familiar.
You're that hotshot lawyer.
The Civil Affairs Secretary Case.
You're younger than I imagined.
Don't find it offensive though. I just find it surprising.
Right. Well, I'll consider it a compliment.
So,
what brings you here?
To talk about a case
and other quieter issues.
Mr. Song sent this.
That's an old trick you just pulled on me.
This isn't the place,
so let's grab a cup of coffee.
FAIRNESS, TRUTH, JUSTICE, HUMAN RIGHTS, INTEGRITY
What business does Song & Kim have with me?
I won't beat around the bush.
D&T.
Song & Kim represents its CEO, Son Jin-su.
He already has Song & Kim on his side?
Of course. I would expect nothing less from a beat like Song & Kim.
So?
There's not enough evidence
to support any violation of the Personal Information Protection Act,
so why are you making this a big deal?
No...
sufficient evidence?
I'm sure you looked into companies with uploading services.
That's how you came across D&T's client list being leaked.
Honestly though, it doesn't matter which came first.
4.5 billion won in cryptocurrency.
Please don't tell me that's the definitive evidence you have.
It's not a noteworthy transaction between companies
which I'm sure you're aware of.
I don't know if I should call you reckless
or brave.
I'm only laying out the facts.
How about a deal?
A non-indictment.
You won't find anything anyway.
And circumstantial evidence isn't enough for a warrant.
You know that well.
Look here, Mr. Yoon.
Right, the witness. I almost forgot.
You'll put Mr. Son on trial
with just a witness statement?
I don't know if that's reckless
or an act of bravery.
I see you threw courtesy out the window.
You know,
this attitude of yours is making me want to put
extra attention on the case.
In the worst-case scenario,
you'd be digging your own grave.
If you're only going after Mr. Son
because he's the son of SS Group's Chairman Son Bong-u...
I'm going after him because he violated the law.
That's what prosecutors do. Got it?
Aren't lawyers smart enough to know that?
If not, watch and learn.
Our conversation seems over.
You should leave.
Well, until next time.
Get Kwon Yong-un in here.
Do we only have incompetent fools working here?
DONGSIM VILLA TOWN
I'll stay here, Ms. Jung. You should head home.
He'll show up soon.
It's his mother's birthday.
And not just any birthday but her 60th.
It might not be on the exact date,
but he'll show up anytime soon.
Here he is.
It's Mr. Yoon.
May I ask what the hell you're doing here?
Do you know how detectives catch suspects?
Through stakeouts or tips.
Anyway, Kim Yeong-jun isn't even a suspect hiding from the police.
In these cases,
stakeouts are definitely the way to go.
People are simpler than you think.
His house, his lover's house,
or his mom's house.
Do you know how reckless this is?
Then tell me how I can meet him.
Lawyers on fat retainers rarely budge from their seats.
It's not like we're detectives.
This is why my antics work. I think and move like detectives.
I hear you met Senior Prosecutor Park.
- How did you know that? - Just like you are with me,
I'm aware of your whereabouts too.
It seems like there's only circumstantial evidence
and Kim Yeong-jun for a witness.
I guess you're right.
Kim Yeong-jun is the person we should be after
right now.
"We"?
Let's at least turn on some music.
"PAGANINIANA" BY KOIMAN
Who listens to music during a stakeout?
It's just always been there.
I don't enjoy music while driving.
As in since when?
Focus, all right?
Why did you become a lawyer?
If it's money you want,
you could've gone after any other job.
You know,
you could've gotten an ordinary job.
You barely earn much even after ten years.
- Then be a con artist instead. - That's illegal.
So you chose to earn money by being a lawyer?
It's not like passing the bar is easy.
All you have to do is study.
That much you can do on your own.
Besides, lawyers have a better chance
at making money than doctors or bureaucrats.
So it's all about money to you?
I always believed
that knowing the law would protect me the most.
At least I won't be a pushover.
Well, this is
a first for us.
Look, there's Kim Yeong-jun.
Mr. Kim Yeong-jun?
Shit.
Hold on. Mr. Kim, wait!
Oh, gosh.
- You lost him? - But he...
Plan B then. Let's meet the mother.
What? And try to settle this with money?
Shit.
I'm meeting Kim Yeong-jun. You can go about your day.
Why are you bothering my mother?
Why are you making me sound like a criminal?
- I did nothing wrong. - I'm aware of it.
It's why I wanted to meet you in person.
PARTNER JUNG GEUM-JA
You represent
Son Jin-su.
- I have nothing to say to you. - Well, I do.
Isn't it illegal to contact me?
Only if I try to conciliate or threaten you.
If it's not for those two reasons,
what business do you have with me?
The truth.
That's what I want to hear.
I'm sure you know Kim Yeong-jun.
He's the prosecution's witness and the informant.
Kim Yeong-jun.
Yes, I know him well.
I fired him a year ago.
He was with the company from the beginning
but wasn't competent enough.
The technology was mine.
Jin-su was more like a sponsor.
He suggested we start our own company.
It was great at first.
But I couldn't take it anymore as time went by.
In the end, I was promoted as the CFO.
Are you kidding me?
I'm an engineer.
It was the same as him cutting off my limbs.
Jin-su, that bastard.
He's the Devil himself.
He manipulates people and steals their abilities.
Kim Yeong-jun? If it weren't for me, he would've never been made a CFO.
I'm the one who made it happen.
I'm being framed.
He's spreading lies because I fired him.
I checked the 4.5 billion won that's in cryptocurrency.
He was in charge of it.
I had no information whatsoever.
That means...
He's the one
behind everything.
The theft of personal information?
That's his doing too.
I'd report him if there was any physical or verbal violence.
But this...
He never comes at us directly.
Our employees are young.
All they have to offer is their vigor and passion.
He uses that to exploit them.
But then...
I found out that Jin-su had sold the personal information of our clients.
That's right. Jin-su's rich.
So why would he bother?
Because...
it's all a game to that bastard.
The pornography sites? He just finds it entertaining.
That's why we argued,
and that's how I got fired.
From the company I poured my sweat and blood into.
So this testimony of yours
is what the prosecution is counting on.
They're counting on your heartbreaking sob story.
Just that.
That's not enough to put Mr. Son behind bars.
Your testimony isn't the smoking gun.
Is that so?
The prosecution only has circumstantial evidence,
and the ace up its sleeve is Kim Yeong-jun.
How we play that card could turn his testimony into trash.
If what you're saying is absolutely right, I mean.
Is that so?
Then I'm relieved.
Mr. Son Jin-su.
You are under arrest for the violation of the Personal Information Protection Act.
You have the right to remain silent and the right to an attorney.
What do you think you're doing? I'm Mr. Son's attorney.
Here's the warrant you people adore.
ARREST WARRANT
This is a warrant for search and seizure.
SEARCH AND SEIZURE WARRANT
- Search the place! - Yes, sir.
Don't worry too much and don't say anything.
Let's see.
I hear you met our boss.
You should've seen him.
You made quite an impression.
Even I'm excited for this fight.
It's me. Son Jin-su was just arrested.
They served a warrant!
Mr. Kim,
is there any other information
you handed over to the prosecution?
Other than the testimony you just repeated to me.
Why must I
tell you that?
Wait. Was Son Jin-su arrested?
It looks like
you should get busy.
You have my testimony to break
and whatever information I handed over to the prosecution
to figure out.
HYENA
D&T won't be able to go public.
- It's an emergency. - I didn't expect this from you two.
Don't order us around as you please, especially with me.
Only this person's name is left unchecked on the list.
- Yu Seo-yeong. - She's dead.
Many employees think she killed herself because of Son Jin-su.
The story is against him.
- This is the prosecution's evidence. - Will you believe me if I say that I have
nothing to do with this?
Ms. Jung.
Please find out why Seo-yeong decided to kill herself.
It's completely destroyed.
Attorney, is there any other evidence?
Other than insisting that he's lying.
Some parts of the diary that the prosecution presented as evidence
were omitted.
Did they omit them on purpose?
