Original subtitles

Yoon Sang Koo!

Yoon Sang Koo!

Yoon Sang Koo.

Where did this punk go?

If I catch that punk...

Why are you looking for Mr. Yoon?

That idiot has made a big mess for us.

He told me Monster Pervert is doing it,

so I assigned it to Mr. Kang,

but do you know who's handling it?

Don't tell me it's Seo Jae In. Is it?

Gosh, my leg fell asleep.

My leg fell asleep.

Yoon Sang Koo.

You idiot!

- Hey, you... - Mr. Bang, please.

No, Mr. Bang. Please.

- Let me explain. - Come here!

No, please don't throw that trophy. Put it down, please.

It's my trophy. Please calm down first.

How can I calm down now?

Stay still. Stay right there. Don't move.

I'd like to stay still,

but my body is moving instinctually because I feel threatened for life.

Shut it. Don't move.

- Just a moment. - You!

You punk.

Stay right there. Don't move. You'd better not move.

Stop. Stop right there!

Stop!

This never lets me down.

This soft, gentle aroma that always delights me.

This sensation awakens every single cell in my body.

Aroma, my foot. All I smell is the stench of something rotting.

I heard that this nauseating stench...

only oozes from lowly animals that have sold their conscience.

- I can't even breathe. - What? "Animals"?

If you can't stand working with me, just quit now.

I'll put you in touch with a loan shark.

Bring that loan shark here now. I can't stand being here.

The problem is, even loan sharks have a thing called sound judgment.

0.5 seconds is all they need...

to figure out whether or not it'll be a lucrative gig for them.

As for you, I'm 100 percent sure they won't bother loaning you money.

Then I'll be obligated to take care of...

all the hefty commission fees and so on.

I'm a person, not an object.

Also, I'd much rather work on a fishing boat...

all my life than representing such an unethical client.

"Unethical"? You still haven't learned your lesson.

Are companies always in the wrong?

And do you think that employees are always right?

You should go to Uganda...

and have a showdown with a mountain gorilla.

The powerful punch will knock some sense into you.

The victim of the accident, Mr. Park,

was dragged 20m on the road because of the pigtail...

and ended up with an injury that requires treatment for four weeks.

On top of that, his son is being bullied at school,

and his family is falling apart.

He should've checked his pig's tail when he was getting off the taxi.

No one blames their employer when their scarf or tie...

gets stuck and causes such an accident.

Then what about his son?

He can't blame it on the pig costume.

He should blame himself for not even knowing...

his son's usual routes.

And upon encountering his son, he shouldn't have been flustered.

He should've given the pigtail to his son's friends as a gift...

and taken them to a restaurant for some juicy pork cutlet.

He should blame himself for not doing that.

In any case, I can't do it. I refuse to take on the case.

She won't be able to work on it.

Ms. Seo got another case.

You're certainly attracting all sorts of trashy, useless cases.

You may take this on, but there's a condition.

Be grateful that I'm willing to train...

such an incompetent rookie who only wants to work on these stupid cases,

and make sure you try not to inconvenience me in any way.

Don't you worry.

I will never ask you for help.

One more thing. I know you absolutely loathe Daesun Group,

but you'll have to attend the meeting with them.

- Why should I? - You'll find out later.

I accept the terms.

What? You'll handle Seo Jae In?

No, you can't. Let Mr. Yoon handle that amateur.

I want you to handle Monster Pervert.

The media is going on about how the management abused authority.

We must win that trial to shut Monster Pervert up once and for all.

Public sentiment is now entirely in favor of the employees.

Wouldn't it better for you to take it on like he's suggesting?

That case probably won't go to trial.

It may be the talk of the town at the moment,

but they're employed by the company after all.

They'll end up settling eventually.

Then you can negotiate a better settlement offer for them.

Public interest will fizzle out with time,

and even if they agree to settle,

no media outlet will want to get on the wrong side of Daesun Group.

Therefore, they may decide to forgo any follow-up articles.

Exactly. Wouldn't a victory that no one hears about be meaningless?

Still, why would you want to deal with such an amateur?

I don't get it.

There's a Botswanian proverb that goes like this.

"Even the moon hiding behind clouds can illuminate the sky."

Gosh, what are you talking about?

Have you ever heard of the term, "proxy war"?

Seo Jae In took the case,

but Tae Rim's firm's reputation is at stake.

The Tae Rim I know...

won't just accept the loss.

If we're to win, though it won't be a crucial blow,

it would be enough to wound his ego.

No, no, no.

It'll cause much more damage.

The industry will think Tae Rim lost.

Why don't you let Lawyer Yoon handle the Daesun's case?

Not him.

The weaker the opponent,

the less Tae Rim will care.

That distraction will serve as an opportunity for Lawyer Yoon.

He could lose both rabbits if he goes after them both.

Is that it?

I just don't trust Sang Koo.

Sometimes desperation creates miracles.

Ouch, ouch, ouch.

That stings.

Must I sue my own brother-in-law?

Send him to prison?

How was I to know?

It's his firm, so I assumed it would be Monster Pervert.

Why Seo Jae In? What bad karma.

If we meet again, I'll just...

Hello, sir.

What?

Me?

This is Yoon Sang Koo.

Yes, sir.

I'll work myself to the bone.

Yes, sir. Goodbye.

He's finally acknowledging me?

Based on age and experience,

I'm way better than Kang Gi Seok.

Good shot.

Is that really it,

or are you up to something else?

I wonder.

You're nastier than you seem.

You know Tae Rim will get actively involved out of betrayal...

once he finds out about your involvement.

You still underestimate Jae In.

I just want to find out...

if she'll work as hard on a case she isn't invested in.

See you.

Isn't that the handsome lawyer you mentioned?

You won't answer?

No, I won't.

Why not?

Did something happen the last time you met?

Something romantic or erotic?

It was alcoholic.

A mess of epic proportions.

Did you do the dog impression?

No way.

You didn't do that, right?

No wonder you're ignoring him.

But shouldn't you apologize?

I won't.

I can't.

I go to such extremes.

Why do I have no middle ground?

What's this case about?

Lovely.

Try smiling at each other. 1, 2.

That's great. I'll check the photos.

My gosh, you look amazing, Hyun Ji.

You're a total angel.

Son.

However happy you may be, smile with your mouth shut.

Who cares?

It's best if we look natural in the photos.

- Gosh. - Stop it.

You're acting silly even before the wedding.

Still, it's a nice sight.

Thank you.

Let's resume.

Try to look happy. 1, 2.

What is it, Hyun Ji?

Who... Do you know him?

Who are you?

I am...

Choi Hyun Ji's boyfriend.

You're what?

Hyun Ji, what's that about?

Hyun Ji.

It's not like that.

Hyun Ji.

Let's be honest.

We knew this would happen.

Hyun Ji.

I will protect you forever.

Mr. Hong Min Cheol.

Let's start from the beginning.

Well...

I don't understand why I was sued.

The plaintiff, Choi Hyun Ji, claims...

her wedding was almost canceled because you came to the studio.

They managed to patch things up...

She didn't want to marry that guy.

This is no laughing matter.

Because of what you did,

Hyun Ji canceled the honeymoon...

and wedding hall, suffering a huge financial loss.

Including psychological compensation,

she demanded 100,000 dollars.

I thought it would be better than her getting divorced later.

She's going to get married?

It's not just that.

Prior to showing up,

she claims you followed and lurked around her.

Is that true?

He's crazy.

Mr. Hong.

Can I admit all the charges the plaintiff stated...

and arrange for you to settle with her?

I did nothing wrong.

What did you say?

I did nothing wrong.

Gosh, these scumbags.

Sales are important, but this?

Follow orders because instructed?

No.

To make a living.

To make...

To make a living.

Turn everything back!

Who was it?

Come here. Come here!

Stop! Stop right there! Stop!

I get how you feel.

I understand.

There are things you must do however much you hate to.

This is how you felt.

The utter embarrassment and the feeling that...

comes up from below the navel.

It's so embarrassing.

Will you not go?

I was to give you a message that you must attend.

How long have you worked here?

I think I started when we brought in the furniture.

I had a tough time...

arranging them to follow the principles of yin and yang.

I see.

You have so many skills. Why work with someone like...

I mean, how can you put up with him without complaint?

What do you mean?

The more I get to know him,

the less considerate I feel he is.

He doesn't feel or act like a human being.

What's inside his head?

Do you want to know what's in his head?

I'm not sure how this will sound,

but if I were to use a metaphor,

he's like rubble and ruins.

What? Rubble and ruins? Ruins...

That could make sense.

Whether others die in an explosion or not,

some first look around to see if any cash got scattered.

When there's a natural disaster,

some think it's an opportunity to steal.

Why not give him the benefit of the doubt?

- Pardon? - Join in...

the Daesun Group case.

He said you might be able to understand the reason.

I think...

he has a grandiose plan.

I'm sorry if I was out of line.

Anyway,

he's fickle and nags endlessly.

All he cares for is money. Why do you like him?

Why do you focus only on the outside?

Are you saying there's something else on the inside?

Ms. Seo.

My law firm decided to work for the company.

I'm so sorry.

Don't be.

We're more sorry for making an empty promise.

But be easy on us, okay?

Deep down inside, I'm still rooting for the employees.

I wish you the best of luck.

Okay.

Before we begin,

I'd like to introduce the attorney that will be representing us.

Let's give him a round of applause.

Hello, I am Yoon Sang Koo, the most competent attorney...

of B and G Law Firm.

My clients want reinstatement of all unfair personnel appointments...

to their original positions.

They also want the executives to stop...

making them dress up like animals...

and to compensation for the invasion of privacy, defamation of character,

and for having gotten injured during working hours.

Finally, they want the management responsible for...

creating an unfair working environment to resign.

That's right!

- Yes! - That's correct.

- Great job! - He's right!

I'm Go Tae Rim, the attorney who represents...

Daesun Meat and Poultry.

We'll tell you what our client wants.

Number one.

All the employees should return to each of their teams.

Number two.

They shall compensate for tarnishing the reputation of the firm...

and obstructing the firm's business...

by using the web and press to cause an issue.

Number three.

The employees shall cooperate with the Audit Team's investigation...

to find the person...

who caused this to happen in the first place.

- That is all. - Is he kidding?

- Seriously? - My gosh.

It seems like he's not aware of the essence of this issue.

These are the recent headlines.

"Consumers Boycott Daesun Group's Products..."

"Due to Their Abuse of Power."

"An Anachronistic Violation of Human Rights."

"Employees Working at Animal Farm."

At this rate, it'll not only harm Daesun Meat and Poultry,

but it'll eventually affect the entire Daesun Group.

Are you ready to put up with that?

Out of the 350 employees working at Daesun Meat and Poultry,

only 40 people participated in this strike.

The remaining 310 employees...

are currently working very hard to make up for your absence.

In other words, what you're doing right now...

is not only taking away your jobs,

but it's also taking away your colleagues' jobs.

Do you really not know how shameless you all are being right now?

I knew you'd say that.

You're using their colleagues as hostages...

and using their jobs to threaten them.

It's something a third-class gangster would do.

And because you succumbed to people like him,

you failed to get treated like a human being.

And you ended up becoming pigs, ducks, and chickens.

But that can't happen anymore.

Why?

Because it's better to just die...

than to get treated...

like animals and work like slaves.

Don't you agree?

We agree!

- We agree! - We agree!

Are you saying you're going to fight until the end?

Even if the firm ends up going bankrupt...

due to the severe boycott?

Even if your colleagues end up losing their jobs?

You're saying you won't care about any of that, correct?

We're not asking for a lot.

All we want is to work like normal people.

We just want to respect our seniors and help our juniors at work.

And at home, we just want to be parents who are...

respected by our kids.

What we want isn't a company dinner...

where we're forced to wear animal masks...

and feel humiliated.

We are...

We are merely dreaming...

of an amicable office environment where we can talk to each other...

about our hardships and difficulties.

If that can actually come true, I'll buy a ticket to Norway...

with my own money...

to recommend you as a candidate for the Nobel Prize.

However, it's just human nature...

to envy each other, have conflicts, compete, betray, scheme,

and trick each other.

So unless every single person in this firm...

opens a one-man company,

I'd like to let you know that you're dreaming of something impossible.

Gosh.

Let's fight...

for promotion!

No love, no honor

- And no hate - And no hate

- We swore to each other - We swore to each other

- That we will fight forever - That we will fight forever

- No love, no honor - No love, no honor

I found this in front of my office today.

It's a list of employees that want me to resign.

There are a total of 100 people.

At this rate, the company will be put in danger.

Of course.

Don't worry. That won't happen.

Just tell them that they won't...

have to hold responsibility if they stop the strike and go back to work.

And tell them that they'll no longer need to imitate animals...

for marketing purposes.

I think the employees want to take this to trial.

And the fact that you sent the employees...

who were courageous enough to speak out to the countryside...

is considered as unfair labor practices.

I honestly wasn't aware of that.

And I didn't know they'd hate the sales policy that much.

My overly loyal subordinates are the ones who caused this mess.

Okay, I understand. Do you have what I asked?

Here's the list of employees who are participating in the strike.

It won't take too long.

I'll wrap things up pretty soon.

- They want the CEO to resign? - Why?

Are you going to meet all those employees and threaten them?

Judging by the fact that you still don't get it,

you'll end up going back to your little egg...

and turn into a half-cooked egg.

Regardless of whatever turn into, I'll still have a conscience.

At least I'll be better than a money-crazy insect.

Goodness.

What's he doing here?

Gosh, look who's here.

You're the ace of B and G Law Firm.

I heard they're treating you luxuriously...

in return for taking a shot at me.

What are you talking about? "The student has become the master."

Surpassing one's master is a gesture of expressing their thanks.

Enjoy it while you're at it...

since it won't last long.

I'll teach you how gruesome things can turn out...

for a traitor.

In Africa, there's a saying that says,

"If you're afraid of the sun, go to the desert."

Which is the same thing as saying,

"A skull buried in the Sahara is looking for some painkillers."

"Be careful of a snake's tail, not its head."

Which is no different than saying, "An Indian magician..."

"is doing the twist after getting bitten by a cobra."

By the way, who are you looking for?

- Jae In. - Chirp Chirp.

Where did she go?

She was just here...

complaining and talking away.

Why do you want to see her?

What's he doing here?

He can't be here to see me.

Is he on the same team as Mr. Yoon?

I really hope not.

Don't you think...

we should get back to work?

If the firm ends up in a financial crisis,

we won't have a job to go back to just like what that attorney said.

Three people already left earlier saying they want to stop.

So are you saying you're going to betray us?

To be honest,

I feel sorry for the others because they need to do all our work.

So I thought maybe it'd be best for us to stop here.

Gosh.

Do you know what this is?

It's a list of employees...

that support us for what we're doing.

If we falter,

we'll be betraying all the people that signed this.

He's right.

The attorney that represents the company...

is a very evil man who enjoys ripping out our weak hearts...

and feels pleasure...

in ruthlessly threatening people...

by making them feel scared.

And what he wants...

is for us to falter.

You need to be courageous.

Daesun Group is currently in a very big crisis.

They can't be nonchalant about this.

Time is on our side.

That means they'll have no choice but to give in to our request.

Of course.

Trust me.

I'm like your friend and brother.

You have to believe in me, Yoon Sang Koo.

Yoon Sang Koo!

- Yoon Sang Koo! - Yoon Sang Koo!

- Yoon Sang Koo! - Let's do this.

- Yoon Sang Koo! - We can do this.

- Let's do this. - Yes.

- We can do it. - We can do it.

Okay, I'll proceed with that.

Okay.

- Is this really necessary? - What do you mean?

Why can't you play fair and square?

You're always scheming something from behind.

Fair and square?

Attorneys like you who think defending a client...

is merely about defending them in court...

is no better than a punk who tries to act cool in a sauna...

with a tiger tattoo on his back who meets a real gangster...

and ends up getting tortured in a pool of hot bath.

I can't believe you still don't know that.

You're so pathetic that the world might end because of you.

A passionate man?

Or a pathetic stalker?

How about you only represent...

losers who steal underwear or perverts in the subway?

It wouldn't be a bad idea to target that niche market.

That might actually help you become a highly sought-after lawyer.

As someone with the nickname,

Monster Pervert, you're in no position to say that.

Stop trying to meddle in my case,

and focus on your work.

You'd better not lose to Mr. Yoon Sang Koo...

and chant those martial arts novel jargons.

In my lexicon, words such as "defeat", "surrender",

"succumb", "lose", and so on simply do not exist.

All right, this tea is great for combating fatigue.

I hope this tea perks you up.

- What about royal jelly? - I put it in, of course.

Two spoonfuls, right?

Actually, I put in one spoonful each.

From now on, put in two spoonfuls, only in my tea.

This amateur lawyer who brings in no revenue doesn't deserve it.

I've already sketched out 4,570 tactics...

that can ensure our victory,

but you're wallowing in the thought of losing...

before you even get started, so I won't tell you what they are.

I'm not wallowing in the thought of losing.

A man who grabbed a woman's buttock on the bus asked us to defend him.

I don't want to do it.

This is precisely why I keep calling you an amateur.

You're like a tadpole that can barely open its eyes.

Everyone is bound to be biased to a certain degree,

but blinded by your biases, you already judged...

your potential client when you're not even a judge.

That is not true at all.

You mustn't lose as long as you're with my firm.

If you lose, you'll be fired on the spot.

Where are you going, Ms. Seo?

I want to focus on my work...

at a place where someone can't bother me.

Sir.

Is there a reason you're so concerned with Ms. Seo's case?

Jae In.

No! Gosh, why did he come all the way here?

Don't be like this if it's because of what happened that day.

Gosh, this is crazy.

Jae In!

Coach, Coach!

Jae In, what's going on?

I mustn't get caught.

Someone's chasing you? Who is it?

It's not a person.

I must run away from my humiliating memories.

- Your memories? - Yes.

Memories that I don't want to be reminded of ever again.

Jae In!

Wait, just a second, please. Who are you?

I'm here to speak with Jae In.

- Jae In! - Wait.

It's my duty to protect our members.

What should I do with this guy?

Tell him to leave.

You should leave now.

Ms. Seo, let me formally introduce myself!

I'm representing the plaintiff...

in the wedding photoshoot case. I'm her attorney, Kang Gi Seok.

Pardon? Then are you Ms. Choi Hyun Ji's...

Yes, Ms. Choi is my client.

If meeting the defendant's attorney is this hard,

how are we going to go to trial?

So she's refusing to settle?

Yes. For her, the objective of this trial...

is revealing the truth, not money.

She wants to clear her name in front of her fiance and family.

Right, I get it. I completely understand how she must feel.

I have to meet with another client of mine, so I should get going.

Wait. I apologize, Mr. Kang.

I did that twice, not even once.

It's okay.

To me, it's actually a fun memory, so don't worry about it.

Also, I'd prefer it if you could just call me by my first name.

You said you think it's ludicrous...

that you have to address me politely when we're around the same age.

Sorry? I said that?

Anyway, I won't go easy on you in the courtroom.

You'll have to come prepared.

I'll see you at the trial, then.

Okay.

Hey, isn't that guy the lawyer you told me about, Kang Gi Seok?

He is, right?

He's not just good-looking. He looks like a model.

People would believe him if he told others he's an actor.

My gosh, from his style to his looks...

I just found out I have to go up against him in this trial.

A showdown between Monster Pervert's two mentees.

I'm not his mentee.

Then what is it? His mentee versus his slave?

Is this funny to you? Because you have nothing to do with it?

Hey, the fierce fight in the courtroom...

might turn into romance.

Who knows?

I just can't lose.

Why? What's going to happen if you lose?

You'll die!

I hope you're ready for that.

Yes, sir! I will make sure I won't let you down.

If you beat Monster Pervert, you'll become a star.

No one will remember the old Yoon Sang Koo.

You'll be reborn as the human rights lawyer,

Yoon Sang Koo, who beat the lawyer with a 100-percent win rate.

Ta-da! You'll be the winner!

I will...

I'll put my everything on the line, from my neck...

to my wrists, to make sure we win the trial.

Do it properly and in style.

Do your best!

Yes, sir!

Gosh, that clumsy fool.

His neck and wrists? As if.

Gosh, what is this?

None of the verdicts makes sense.

Are they saying employers can get away with abusing their authority...

and not giving overtime pay?

What's to blame? The judge or the law itself?

They're both to blame.

And lawyers like us who cater to the powerful because of money...

have been contributing to it as well.

I know, I'm aware. Even little kids would know that.

I'm just frustrated, that's all.

What brings you here?

Did you stop by to see if I was putting on a circus or what?

Were you going to take a photo of it,

blow it up, and put it up in the lobby?

Why are you so twisted?

I actually thought it was great.

It's much better than prying, eavesdropping,

and talking behind their back.

You looked like a true lawyer.

Goodness, you're making me cringe.

Did you not consider me a lawyer before that or what? Goodness.

Anyway, what brings you to my office?

Are you beating around the bush because you have bad news for me?

Don't tell me I'll be replaced by Mr. Kang...

Our secret weapon.

I went through hoops to get it.

Analyze the situation and use it only when it's absolutely necessary.

Why is Ms. Min helping me?

Wait, does she have a crush on me?

Goodness.

Gosh, ladies just love me.

Is she head over heels for me or what?

Gosh, it's so cold.

What are you doing here? What brings you to my neighborhood?

Mr. Kim Hyung Tae, you're the assistant sales manager.

You've been insisting that you were transferred...

unfairly because you complained about the animal marketing,

but it was because of your affair with a female employee of a firm...

the company did business with.

Does your wife know about it too?

Sorry? What?

Don't you worry. You regret what you did,

and you're focusing on your family now,

so I have no interest in jeopardizing you.

But if the situation gets worse,

what do you think will happen?

Will the company be able to keep your secret hidden forever?

I'll have another glass of this.

This drink is on me.

What's going on? What are you doing here?

Mr. Hong Seung Joo.

You've been the assistant purchasing manager for three years.

Immediately after Mr. Park's accident,

you instigated your co-workers...

to go on strike.

So what? Is there a problem?

No, how kind and thoughtful of you.

But the problem is...

the fact that you were being internally investigated...

for fudging cost and your business trip expenses.

I'm innocent.

You bought an imported sedan six months ago.

And on your vacation three months ago,

you bought your wife a designer purse in Europe.

Did you win the lottery?

How is that possible on an assistant manager's salary?

You got busted, so you had nothing to lose.

Hence, you probably thought...

there might be a way out if all the management got replaced.

My kids are still very young.

If I get terminated from my job at this age,

how will I earn a living?

That's why...

the company decided to be understanding and generous.

You'll sell the imported car and designer purse...

and partially pay back the money you embezzled.

The rest will be taken out of your salary as monthly installments.

The CEO promised that you won't face any disadvantages.

You said I'd find out eventually. Was this it?

You only think about winning...

and knocking out your opponents, right?

For money.

Is there anything wrong with it?

No.

Someone said you're probably after something more profound...

and that you must have another side you're hiding.

I let myself be fooled by such words and decided to trust you,

and I feel so pathetic for doing that.

What is it? Is something wrong?

No, it's nothing.

You used to tell me everything.

I feel left out.

I'm just worried if I can do well in this trial.

It's my first time going solo.

And I'm up against the famous Kang Gi Seok.

- Do you want a tip? - Yes.

Observe a winner.

How he wins and what he does to win.

He's close by.

Winning isn't everything.

Shall we have some soju? It's been a while.

- Hello. - Hello.

- Please help. - Sign our petition.

Please sign this.

How much longer must we put up with...

being treated like animals?

Join us.

We must fight for our rights.

- Sign our petition. - For a pig's tail,

one had to put up with the humiliation...

of being dragged 20m like baggage.

Will you turn a blind eye?

Fight with us.

Join us.

We stayed up through the long night

Dewdrops are on every leaf

They are more beautiful than pearls

Just like dewdrops in the morning

Keep on singing.

I like this one too.

Expensive items exude dignity.

Which do you like, Mr. Gu? This or this?

I think that...

with the simple design and almost analog qualities,

this one is nicer.

Were you a master watchmaker in Switzerland?

No.

I once worked in Salzburg, Austria...

as a designer.

I like this one too.

Should I buy both?

This is Go Tae Rim's law firm.

Daesun Group?

Mr. Go is out at the moment.

I see.

Sure, I'll pass it on.

Over 70 people are protesting at Daesun Group.

They want you to call back.

I'll buy both.

You might have to return both.

The weak become strong with numbers...

and that can bring justice.

Nothing's as pathetic as doing nothing,

thinking time's on your side.

Shall we go and witness the true nature of the justice you speak of?

Follow me. The trial doesn't even have a date yet.

Fine. That's what I want.

As you see, our numbers are growing.

So, what are your conditions?

You know better than anyone how this will end.

Our conditions to settle...

- Yes? - don't exist.

What?

What? You won't settle?

Let me say something just in case...

you have hopes about the trial.

Mr. Oh had no knowledge of the animal marketing.

That was purely a result of the executives...

and managers competing out of loyalty.

Employees who don't return to work tomorrow...

will all be let go.

- What? - Let go?

Do you still believe that empty threats will work?

You have no sense of reality.

Other than the employees here,

over 100 people...

signed a petition demanding...

the CEO's resignation.

Do you still insist on stalling?

Strength in numbers. Is that true?

Is there anyone who wants to...

return to work but fear to do so...

in case they're branded as traitors?

Will you let yourself get...

carried away and give up your job and family?

Do not waver.

I'm sorry.

I don't think I can do this.

- Sorry. - You can't just leave.

My kids are still young too. Sorry.

Where are you going?

- Don't go. - How could he?

- Calm down. - Sit down.

I actually...

just returned from the Canada office.

I don't know what the protest's about.

And for all I know, those people there...

are here to avoid the massive workload.

- What are you talking about? - You said so.

"Those who protest get to slack off all day."

"Why should we cover for them?"

You said you'd be better off protesting with them.

And the one dozing off next to him.

You want to go on a date tomorrow,

but your boss won't let you...

take a day off, so you're here.

- That's not what I meant. - Let go of me.

- You said that. - That's not right.

The rule of the rotten apple.

Just one rotten apple...

can turn all the apples in the barrel rotten.

You're the one who's rotten.

How could you?

Follow me!

Wait!

Our secret weapon.

I went through hoops to get it.

Analyze the situation and use it only when it's absolutely necessary.

Guess what this is.

So far, Mr. Oh denied knowledge.

He said...

his employees did it out of loyalty.

But minutes of an executive meeting...

held a year ago.

These papers...

prove that it was a blatant lie.

The truth's finally coming out.

The truth no one can stop.

Let's take a look at this.

Mr. Oh...

wanted to expand the animal marketing campaign.

There were reports that those...

who refused would be trained.

He didn't know?

Your cruel CEO...

denied what he said.

He's a despicable man who humiliated his employees!

Well done.

Did I win?

Did I beat Go Tae Rim?

Well done.

- That's it. - Did I win?

Did I beat Go Tae Rim?

Too bad.

You have minutes of the meeting.

I can hide it no longer.

One month prior to that meeting,

foot-and-mouth disease and avian flu...

caused your sales to drop to 25 percent.

The company was in a crisis.

Here's a list of employees that the head office...

ordered your CEO to fire.

- Kim Chil Gu. - Yes.

- Bang Eun Myung. - Yes.

- Na Dong Man. - Yes.

- Park Jae Sung. - Yes.

This list contains over 150 names.

Yet you all still work here.

Why? Because of Mr. Oh's offer...

mentioned in those minutes.

"I'll imitate an animal..."

"to overcome this crisis."

"So please..."

"protect the employees who are like family."

That's the length that your CEO went to...

as he clung to the chairman's leg...

to plead with tears streaming down his face.

Liar. You're lying.

Don't you dare lie.

This is what Mr. Oh did...

in the meeting.

Are you ashamed?

Were you ashamed to wear a fake nose?

What's really shameful is the fact that...

the employees who trusted their CEO...

were threatened to be let go because of a drop in sales.

Not knowing what happened,

you people put your pride first...

and belittled the ducks,

chickens, and pigs that kept you fed...

and put them straight in the trash.

Monster Pervert. What nonsense are you spewing?

People. This is a blatant lie.

Don't fall for it.

Don't fall for it. Don't.

- No love, no honor - No love, no honor

- And no hate - And no hate

That's not all.

Mr. Yoon Ki Yeong, you're the representative.

Didn't Director Lee promise you...

that you'll get promoted...

once CEO Oh Chul Soo resigned?

That's why you started the strike as soon as Mr. Park got injured.

No, that's... That's not true.

He's lying!

I looked into why the title of the petition was...

"The Resignation of the CEO"...

instead of "Animal Marketing".

And it turns out Mr. Yoon Ki Yeong was the one who created it.

No, that's not true. I'm telling the truth!

- Are you serious? - My gosh.

- What's going on? - Is that true?

Hey, Ms. Seo.

Yes?

I think I was mistaken.

I couldn't say anything to my son...

because I was embarrassed myself.

From now on, I'm going to stop feeling embarrassed.

And of course, I'll be careful of the pigtail.

Okay. I'll be off now, then.

Yoon Sang Koo. Yoon Sang Koo, you punk!

Just go.

Please just go.

What are you doing?

You managed to put on a creative act.

But that's not going to work on me.

Follow me.

Okay, let's begin.

Begin what?

You bet your life on this case saying that you'll win.

It just meant that I was going to do my best.

I didn't mean it literally.

Who in the world would actually cut their wrist?

Are you seriously going to...

give excuses until you breathe your last breath?

- Dae Han. - Shut it.

You were always a nobody.

But this might get the press to write an article about you.

Stop hesitating and just end your life once and for all!

I... I'm not...

interested in mass media.

I... I want to live a long life.

I... I still...

want to live.

Please let me live.

I'm so sorry.

I'm really sorry.

I'm sorry.

Ms. Seo, does the food not suit your palate?

Oh, it's not that. I'm just not that hungry right now.

Good work.

Thank you.

I'll be off now.

You should have some more.

No, it's okay. I already had two servings.

Bye, guys.

Was it all true?

Did Mr. Oh really try to stop the restructuring?

Did the employee representative really make a deal...

to get a promotion?

You know what? It doesn't matter if it's true or not.

You find people's weaknesses and use those against them.

Is making people turn on each other with lies a part of lawyers' job?

You don't even care at all about Article 1, Protocol 1...

of the Attorneys-at-Law Act...

which is the fulfillment of social justice.

Do you know what this is?

This woman's husband used to run...

a Daesun Meat and Poultry retail store in the suburbs.

But he died due to an accident,

and she's now trying her best to raise two kids all on her own.

She's doing everything she can...

to protect her husband's store and the employees who work there.

But after the press started writing articles about the strike,

she's been losing money every day.

She didn't actually say this,

but I could sense that she might even kill herself...

if the strike continues because she wouldn't be able to endure it.

- What? - If we allowed the employees...

to continue their strike,

we would've brought misery upon not only this woman...

but also her kids who would've had to witness her death.

This is a receipt for your watch.

- I made it up. - You made it up?

It was all a lie.

I don't know that woman.

What are you doing right now?

What just went through your mind?

Didn't you suddenly wish the company would do well...

so that this woman would be able to live a happy life?

Well, yes. But it was all a lie.

How can you be sure that no one's going through...

something like that at the current moment?

You keep talking about justice,

but it's just pity derived from belittlement.

All you're doing is just pitying people...

who seem weaker than you.

Then where can I find justice?

We're not deities, so we'll never know the answer to that.

I personally think justice only exists in superhero movies...

or lame comic books that are read by elementary school kids.

Doing everything you can to fight for your client.

That's the only thing an attorney can do.

The moment you forget that, you lose your right as an attorney.

Do you understand, Chirp Chirp?

Eat up.

Okay, thank you.

This is so good.

Your client's waiting for you. Aren't you going to come?

A man who grabbed a woman's buttock on the bus asked us to defend him.

I don't want to do it.

Everyone is bound to be biased to a certain degree,

but blinded by your biases, you already judged...

your potential client when you're not even a judge.

I think this is enough.

I'll see you on the day of the trial.

Why are you suddenly so different?

Pardon? What do you mean?

Is it because I'm wearing different clothes?

My hair hasn't changed.

No, I'm talking about the way you're treating me.

You didn't seem to believe me that day.

So I was going to meet you today...

and see if I should switch to someone else.

Oh, I see.

But...

I'll just stick with you. I hope you can help me out.

I'll do my best.

I'll be off now.

What's wrong?

What's the matter?

You really are different. Even I noticed that.

You really didn't want to work for him before.

Did something happen?

No.

I just figured I should try to believe him.

After all, I'm an attorney, not a judge.

Monster Pervert must have a very unusual talent.

You're normally really stubborn, but he managed to tame you.

What are you talking about? He didn't tame me.

I found it.

Really?

What do you mean you can't identify him?

We won't be able to find him with just a photo.

What about his whereabouts?

Fortunately, we were able to find the garage...

that lend him the motorcycle.

But he used a fake name,

so we won't be able to find him unless we stake him out.

Okay, let me know the address of that garage.

Thank you for your work.

Bingo.

Welcome.

The apples...

Who are you? Why are you tailing me?

I wanted to talk to you in person.

- Are you a detective? - Something like that.

You're one brave woman.

I know, right?

I was a bit of a punk back in my day.

Shall I teach you a lesson?

Darn it. Running is my only weakness.

Gosh, I'm exhausted.

I should really start exercising.

My stomach hurts. Gosh, I'm so exhausted.

Where did he go?

I knew it.

You can't find anybody with a blurry photo like that.

Didn't you see earlier?

The owner was so surprised to see this photo.

Are you saying she lied?

She certainly seemed to know something.

Let's say she does.

What are we going to do if we actually encounter him?

After taking a closer look, I don't think it's Byung Tae.

Is this scent from skincare products?

That tattoo?

Things were going well when I was working on it alone.

But that document Ms. Min gave me.

The minutes of the meeting or whatever it is.

That's what got me.

As soon as I pulled it out,

Monster Pervert turned the tables on me as if he was waiting.

This cannot be a coincidence.

Who are you?

- Hey, sister. - Hey.

Who was that guy just now?

He runs my personal errands for me. Why do you ask?

- "Errands"? Like what? - Vetting my clients.

Oh, it's not because I don't trust the investigation team at B and G.

Some things are a bit difficult to ask.

Can you give me information about him?

No, that will be hard.

There are rules that must be followed.

Well, then. I have things to finish off.

See you tomorrow, sister.

I heard you asked for me.

Did I make a mistake or something?

That guy. What do you think of him?

"That guy"? Who are you referring to?

I'm talking about Kang Gi Seok.

Oh, I'm doing my best to assist him well.

He never reveals what he's really thinking though.

I can't trust him.

Pardon? No.

I'm really doing my best to support Mr. Kang in every way I can.

I'm talking about Kang Gi Seok.

I knew it. So you've been thinking that too?

I guess you made me his assistant to monitor him.

Don't jump to conclusions.

- Sorry. - I'm sure Monster Pervert...

will control Seo Jae In while staying behind the scenes.

Find out what he's trying to do and what his strategy will be.

Me? Why?

Are you fine with continuing to assist Mr. Kang?

No. I will find out.

I'll be sure to find out and put my...

Shall I put my honor on the line?

No, don't. Don't put anything on the line.

Don't bother! Stop saying you'll put things on the line!

Okay, I won't say it again.

Well, if you ask Mr. Go sincerely,

he'll probably help you out.

Well, Mr. Go.

My answer is no.

- What just happened? Gosh. - Oh, no.

- Are you all right, sir? - Why did this suddenly break?

I don't think it was hit by anything.

Gosh, this is an ominous sign.

- Something's approaching us. - No, that's not true.

A while ago, a friend of mine...

gave it to me, saying that he made it at a pottery studio.

He probably didn't bake it properly as it was his first time.

But why was that vase there?

And why did it happen to break as I was passing by it?

This is a sign, an ominous sign.

Stop making such a fuss over nothing.

Go away.

Please don't come to me.

Gosh, I can't focus because of you.

If you're that worried, you should've just stayed home.

Why did you insist on coming?

No baseball game takes place without the coach.

Coach, my foot.

Didn't you reject me when I asked for help?

What now?

Is that pigeon poop?

- It must be. - Can you still say it was nothing?

While flying in the vast sky,

why did it have to poop right over my head?

This sure is an ominous sign, a very bad one.

How could you be laughing now?

Gosh.

Is this an elementary school entrance ceremony?

Since when did you need guardians to tag along to trials?

I guess you were worried as well.

You never attend trials like this. What brings you here?

There are things mentors say to their mentees...

they haven't seen in a while.

"You've grown up" is one of them.

It can be a nice way of saying you're rude,

but it also means they think of you as their competition.

But you see, I don't have anything to say to you now.

You know what though?

I'm fighting against Ms. Seo today.

Will you both please stop?

Mr. Kang, let's go inside.

Okay, Ms. Seo.

Everyone, please stand.

Gosh.

Isn't Judge Kim supposed to be here today?

This isn't going to end very nicely.

You've just committed a very serious breach of orders.

- You'll be locked up for an hour. - No.

Don't leave me alone. Don't go.

Can you please let him go?

I will if he agrees to make an official apology.

No way. Never!

There's a saying in Uganda.

"One should fear a drowning mouse more than the claw of a puma."

You really are Monster Pervert's mentee.

Don't use my trial as a means to take revenge.

He won't think of this as a fight against you.

What if I lose?

People will say Go Tae Rim Law Firm lost the case.

"No, that's not true. I'm serious."

Hey, come on. You need to be more emotional.

You need to sound really upset.

But is this really going to get me promoted?

Can't you see the CEO's signature?

Let's try it again.

"No, that's not true. I'm serious."

"No."
