Have you eaten?

My gosh! Oh, my goodness.

- What's going on? - Have you eaten yet?

Don't... Don't come close. Don't come anywhere near me!

Try this.

Have you eaten?

What's going on?

Hello.

Have you eaten?

What's this?

What's going on?

Why does that jerk appear in my dream?

This is bad. It's a bad omen.

You were touched.

You expected him to yell at you, but he said that.

You suddenly feel some sort of affection,

and he got you feeling all sentimental.

What if you two end up dating?

What about Kang Gi Seok? A love triangle?

Do you have a death wish?

You aren't making any sense.

Overreacting as well?

Stop it, okay?

What's this? What are you reading?

I'm going to study to become a lawyer, why?

To give some legal advice to kill time.

Who knows?

If you start your own firm, I might become your paralegal.

What with your slave contract, that might be decades later.

That contract is the least of my problems.

I'm my own problem.

What is it now?

I realized only after the trial...

what a useless lawyer I am.

I lost completely to Monster Pervert.

Why do you think he never lost a trial?

There must be a reason.

That's why I'm going to learn for real.

Good for you.

Seeing that you admit you've lost,

it makes me happy that you're growing up.

How about a drink to celebrate?

Okay?

Edgar, this is my private request.

So it's fine if you can't.

Oh, really?

Thank you so much.

You know, I want your help.

Bye.

Hello.

You're so fluent, Mr. Gu.

That was nothing.

I used to advise the FBI...

on East Asian issues.

The FBI?

It wasn't anything glamorous.

I only filled them in on our traditions and customs.

I helped them disguise and assimilate into our society.

Like a spy? Like James Bond?

I signed an NDA.

I can't tell you any more. Sorry.

- Okay. What mission... - Not that either.

An NDA.

Where's Mr. Go?

I think he's in the study.

Why are you asking for him?

It's nothing.

- Did you eat? - I did.

I ate already.

Then I'll bring some tea.

Okay.

Hello.

Bob.

Bob.

Food?

Bob.

Did you eat? Did you eat?

Bob.

I ate already, okay?

Eat what?

Music is to listen to, not eat.

Oh, Bob Dylan?

Seeing how you're not in your right mind,

you're still wallowing in the sorrow of your defeat.

Go to the Rosehill Cemetery in Chicago...

and commune with the spirits with your body language.

- Why? - So you'll wake up!

From now on, I'll do my best.

I will beat you in court one day.

To do so, I must know my enemy,

so I'll learn from you.

I'll do anything you tell me from now on.

Did you just use the subtle skill of mocking and...

confessing your love in one go?

I don't quite like the feeling,

but work hard from now on.

Did you think I'd say that? Sorry.

You'll beat me? When you have no wins yet?

That would make Tom Hanks from "Mission Impossible"...

and Superman who saved the world...

by spinning it the other way both go "no way".

It's Tom Cruise, not Tom Hanks.

Cruise or Hanks.

Before I shoot you with an arrow from...

my 300-year-old bow from a Papua New Guinean chief,

zip up your chirping beak and hone your skill.

If you can't do that, clean the toilet.

Until it shines and sparkles.

I don't deserve applause.

No, you did. It's more than enough.

You crushed Go Tae Rim even though he sent out his minion.

Let's have a drink this evening.

Gosh, didn't you come back all victorious?

You must feel great, Lawyer Kang.

What do you want?

Nothing really.

All I got was abuse even after I beat a great lawyer.

How must it feel to beat...

a rookie in court and be congratulated for it?

I wanted to find out.

If that's all, let's talk some other time.

I'm busy too. I was about to leave.

Okay.

What are you doing?

I dropped my phone.

Oh, it's in my office.

What lovely flowers.

Welcome back, Mr. Victorious.

- To Lawyer Kang. - Cheers.

Drink up.

It tastes so sweet.

Liquor tastes best after a court victory.

- Right, Lawyer Kang? - Right.

What's the matter? It's your day.

We're here for you. Empty your glass.

Go on.

Bottom's up. That's it.

This is the life.

Did you see it?

Monster Pervert left even before the trial ended.

He didn't want me to see his face after he lost.

He was so arrogant and wouldn't stop showing off that he never lost.

He hung his head in shame this time.

Let's all have another drink. Go on.

To Lawyer Kang.

Good, okay.

Okay. Empty your glasses.

This is great.

Bottom's up. Bottom's up.

- Bottom's up. - Bottom's up.

This is just great. I love it.

Have some more.

Drink. Come on.

- Drink, drink. - Drink.

Bottom's up.

Come here you punks.

You can't leave like this.

I'm not good with liquor.

Mr. Bang arranged it for you.

Aren't you being rude?

Like someone said,

I don't deserve the praise.

- Who said that? - Bye.

Hi. Can you spare me some time?

What is it this time?

Does Mr. Bang want you to spy on me?

Don't be like that as soon as you arrive.

You owe me for the apology from Judge Do.

You told her, for me? More like for yourself.

You've struck my nerve, and I'm lost for words.

Forget about that.

He had this tattoo on his neck.

- Who? - The man who hit you.

Don't mention that.

Oh, no, the trauma.

I almost got him last time.

You wasted your time.

Ask Sang Koo or Mr. Bang,

and they'll give you his number and address.

Why are you pretending to appease me?

I suspected them both, but it's neither of them.

What's clear is, whoever is behind him...

wants to pitch you against my law firm.

Then that means I got attacked because of B and G Law Firm.

Are you saying he attacked...

my precious body, face, and seventh rib...

just so he could use me?

Don't jump to conclusions.

I'm going to start looking into it.

But in order to do that, we need to catch him first.

I never understood why Jae In always got confused...

about whether she was an attorney or a cop.

But I guess she got that trait from you.

I'm not interested in finding who was behind it...

or who's in the center of all this...

because I'm already over it.

Gosh.

I'm okay. I'm fine.

My gosh.

I'm pretty good at imitating sounds.

That's an angry puppy.

That's a puppy pretending to be a wolf.

This is nice.

Ma'am, one bottle of soju and some Pacific saury, please.

I'll be paying tonight, so order everything you want.

Let's get wasted tonight.

Cheers.

Hey, you can't cancel on me now.

I'm almost there.

I'm sorry. You know my dad's temper.

He said he'll close down the cafe if I don't attend today.

- Cut me some slack. Bye. - Hey.

Gosh, this brat.

Welcome.

Gi Seok.

I didn't know you drank alone.

Am I drunk? Why am I seeing things?

What?

You're not seeing things. I'm really here.

It's me, Jae In.

Is it really you, Jae In?

What? Is there something wrong?

Why did you drink so much?

Yes, something's wrong.

Here.

Everyone congratulated me for winning the trial against you.

Isn't it so funny?

I even got a huge bouquet of flowers.

- Where did you get this? - I got it as a gift.

It was to congratulate my win.

I was totally full of myself.

I wanted to declare war, but I was totally blindsided.

- Are you talking about Mr. Go? - Yes.

That can't be. I gave this back to Mr. Hong.

That's why Tae Rim is so great.

He always has his eyes on everyone...

and throws a punch right when you least expect it.

He leaves you with no exit.

I also feel like I got blindsided.

But you see, I'm also thankful.

If I didn't get this photo,

I would've made a fool of myself in front of you.

I was the fool.

Throughout the entire trial, I kept getting swayed...

and couldn't decide whether I should trust my client or not.

Are you trying to console me?

What are you talking about?

Regardless of who won the trial,

you eventually got what you wanted.

Ms. Choi apparently called Mr. Hong...

and told him that she doesn't need any compensation.

Plus, Ms. Choi already set a date for her wedding.

It's exactly what you wanted. A win-win situation.

You are trying to console me.

- No, I'm not. - Hey.

Wait.

What do you say...

we become friends instead of being fellow attorneys?

Sure, let's be friends.

Nice.

Then let me ask you something as your friend.

Didn't you feel upset when your client canceled the suit?

Not at all.

It's hard to explain this.

But I learned something way more precious.

Something precious?

Is that so?

Can I also ask you something?

Why did you get a job at B and G Law Firm...

to start a fight against Mr. Go?

You could've gone to another law firm.

That's because...

Because...

Tae Rim is the only person who can prove my competence.

In order to become a self-made man instead of being Tae Rim's mentee,

it was the only choice I had.

I'm so selfish, aren't I?

No.

I think I kind of understand.

Anyway, I lost the trial fair and square.

Let's stop talking about the past.

And let's just drink as friends.

Here. Cheers.

What? Gi Seok.

Gi Seok. My goodness.

I didn't get to drink at all.

Wait.

Gi Seok. Gi Seok.

Mr. Gu.

Goodness, you're up.

Can I have some honey water?

Sure. I'll get you a glass.

What... What am I doing here?

Hey, I can't exactly remember what happened last night.

Why am I here?

You're going to use your condition as an excuse...

after you broke into my place in the middle of the night...

and woke me up in the middle of my sleep?

Hello.

Gi Seok, did you sleep well?

Well, yes. By the way, didn't we drink together at the street bar?

Yes. You were really drunk,

so I brought you here.

I'm sorry.

Do you think this place is a hotel?

Why did you bring a stranger to my place?

He's not a stranger. He used to be your mentee.

What? He was never my mentee.

I'm going to deduct his lodging expenses from your paycheck.

Fine, go ahead.

I have to work here for 15 years and 3 months anyway.

An additional month won't make much of a difference.

While you're at it, you can also charge me for his breakfast.

- Here you go. - Oh, right.

Thank you.

Did you add royal jelly to his drink?

Gosh, don't be so cold-hearted.

It's so delicious.

Mr. Gu, your cooking skills are still incredible.

- I always missed your food. - Thank you.

Is that what a polar bear says when it's worried...

about penguins but hungry at the same time?

I can see that you are...

still very pessimistic like adolescent teenagers.

Geniuses who left behind incredible accomplishments...

won't be able to get acknowledged by good-for-nothing punks like you.

I prefer normal people.

Because that's how I'll be able to become an attorney...

who can communicate, understand, and console my clients.

That's what incompetent lawyers say after they lose a trial...

just so they can rationalize their incompetence.

That's better than being a lawyer who makes their clients cry...

even if they won the case because they have to pay a huge legal fee.

That's enough.

Stop fighting and just eat your food.

You're not wearing a tie yet, so that means we're still friends.

Yes. I'm really sorry about yesterday.

But thanks to you, I got to meet Tae Rim and Mr. Gu.

I had a fun time.

It's nothing compared to what I did to you.

How about we come to a settlement...

and agree to forget about our embarrassing pasts?

Sure. I would love that.

But let me do this one last time before I forget.

- Stop it, Gi Seok. - I'll be off now.

You should keep this, Jae In.

It's the symbol of your first win.

Gosh, don't say that. It's not true.

The client wanted to throw it out, so I'll discard it.

It was very nice to see you two just like the old days.

Even back then, you and Mr. Kang used to get into arguments...

during your meals.

Whenever you won a trial, both of you got so excited.

You two drank and chatted away all night.

That jerk even ruined those memories for me.

Yes, Edgar.

What? Really? You sent it?

Oh, good. Thank you so much.

I won't forget your help.

Never. Yes.

Could you come with me?

I got the image restored after the incident...

at the police station, thinking that it might be helpful.

It wasn't easy, but they managed to restore it.

What?

So it's not him? It's not Byung Tae, right?

That's right. It's not him.

Thank you. Thank you, Mr. Gu.

Keep it down, will you? What's all the fuss about?

It's not him. Byung Tae isn't the killer.

I guess you'll no longer bring garbage here.

You've been making all the fuss with such terrible eyesight?

Put the eye chart on the back of 3,780 goats...

in the Mongolian Plateau and follow them around.

He looks nothing like Kim Byung Tae.

I've already sent it to the police.

It was the same guy.

- What do you think? - My gosh, it looks incredible.

You sure are a top-notch expert.

I'm glad you're happy with it.

Thank you.

Sha-la-la

I will pluck, pluck, pluck for you

Oh, my lunar star

To the universe

The song that's playing right now. Whose song is it?

- Pardon me? - Whose song is it?

This song.

Excuse me, miss.

Please calm down. What's the matter?

Someone stole my song.

The song that's playing now is mine!

So...

someone plagiarized your song?

Then you'll have to file a copyright lawsuit.

Can we have a chat? Just the two of us.

Well, I guess the three of us.

Oh, look at this syrup.

Stir it well.

I'd rather eat this.

I'm the vocalist of the band, Andromeda Sophia.

I'm the guitarist of the band, Django Antonio.

Why didn't you name yourselves Titanic DiCaprio...

or Uranus Hathaway?

The name of our band is Self-destructive Souls.

My song's been stolen.

In other words, her song got plagiarized.

They'll need a copyright lawsuit.

Why is this lady here?

I brought this case to you.

You helped us at the police station, so I wanted to help this time.

Since when did my firm's reputation got damaged to the point...

that we needed help acquiring cases?

Right, since someone lost a trial.

If someone stole your song, who stole it?

I had no idea "Lunar Star" would become this popular.

Never in my wildest dreams did I expect it.

I owe it all to Sweet Girls, who have been working very hard,

as well as their supportive fans.

I love you, everybody.

We'd like to sincerely thank the genius songwriter,

Mr. James Park, for writing such an amazing song for us.

And all of our fans.

- We love you! - We love you!

Get out.

It's just a girl group's song. You want to file a lawsuit?

At my firm, we don't waste our time with petty cases,

trying to take chump change from young girls.

Get out. I said, get out. Don't you hear me?

What is this? You said this firm would take it on!

What's your problem? Why did you bring us to this worthless place?

What? "Worthless"?

Hey.

Sweet Girls is...

- extremely popular... - Just a moment.

- What do you want? - in China and Japan...

as well as all over Southeast Asia.

- Their album sold millions of... - Stop!

Stop, stop, stop.

Well, we'll make an exception and take on your case.

You told us to get out.

I was just testing your rock spirit.

I only accept true rockers as my clients.

All right, let's sit down and talk.

So you're saying that girl group...

copied your song, right?

The title of their song is "Lunar Star", right?

The title of our song is "Crazy Love in Andromeda".

What? "Andromeda"?

They copied the whole song from beginning to end.

Let's hear your song first.

Gosh, it's so loud!

What part is similar?

Chirp Chirp, tell them that no one would ever steal their song.

What?

Goldfish. Chirp Chirp.

Seo Jae In.

They clearly plagiarized the song.

What?

Come again? I beg your pardon?

Yes.

About the last two measures...

It goes from D to A, right?

No, D to A minor.

I see, D to A minor.

This is it.

Oh, my. You wrote down all the notes as soon as you heard the song.

Back in the old day, I worked as a folk singer...

at C'est Si Bon in Myeong-dong for a short while.

C'est Si Bon.

C'est Si Bon?

It was hard to compare as Sophia didn't follow the notes exactly,

but I can see they're very similar now that I'm looking at the scores.

Mr. Go, we'll take this on, right?

What's your budget for all the legal fees?

Our fees are quite expensive.

We can spend up to 500 dollars.

Stop joking around.

This reminds me of someone.

That's a lot of money for them.

It'll cause quite a stir because of James Park's reputation.

It'll also help us gain more celebrity clients.

We'll take the case.

No deposit needed.

No deposit?

But if we win and get compensation,

I'll take half of it as a fee.

Isn't that too much?

Let's do that. Thanks a lot.

Let's crush this James Park.

Type up the papers, Ribbit Ribbit.

"Ribbit"? I'm a frog now?

Not a tadpole anymore?

Are you pleased?

No. Who's pleased?

I'm so annoyed.

Mr. Bang.

- Mr. Bang. - Go away.

Sorry, sir.

It's really urgent.

You know James Park. The famous songwriter.

From DParks Entertainment who signed a contract with us.

They got sued.

- What? - I told you not to mess up.

I said make the press write about Monster Pervert's fall.

I did.

Did you? Did you?

Reporter Yang told me all about it.

You got drunk and said...

beating a novice isn't worth writing about.

I'll kill you today!

Wait, wait.

That's not the issue right now.

You can hit me later. Right now, Tae Rim...

I was told about that already!

You were?

That fool.

This time, we must...

beat him in court properly.

That just sounds like a monkey in heat.

Does it?

It sounds amateurish but it's better than I thought.

Although I'm sure they're just childish youths...

who want to gain fame by suing someone famous like you.

Didn't many others pick on you like this before?

Dirty. I don't actually want to deal with them.

What kind of lawyer would take a case like this?

There is one...

who's more like a thug who hides behind his lawyer license.

A hyena. Oh, dirty.

Mr. Bang, you'll take the case yourself, right?

Leave it to me. This is my specialty.

I can win...

an intellectual property rights case with my experience alone.

It's not personal.

I want to repay you for everything.

I will stake my life on this.

You staked your life and hand on a case and then backed out.

What will you stake now?

You said you have regrets.

You'd rather live a meager but long life.

It'll be different this time.

It's the shot I'll get in my life as a lawyer...

Hello.

The statistics on intellectual property rights cases.

Lawyer Jung...

has the most experience and wins.

Let me see.

Yoon Sang Koo...

25th out of 30 lawyers?

No way. That can't be.

The weight must be all wrong.

That could be true. The numbers are from the last three years.

Right?

No wonder. I was amazing three years ago.

What about after that?

You were busy gambling your savings away in casinos.

You lost everything.

Why would you bring up the past?

Out, out.

Don't pester me with your whining.

Get out. Leave.

Shall I call Lawyer Jung?

We're up against Monster Pervert.

Do you think a normal strategy will work?

The plagiarism case. Is it yours?

I don't know. I was just asked to come in.

Shall I recommend you for the job?

Gosh, no.

- Any proverbs for the day? - No.

Why not? You always talked about Africa.

Yes. I bet you feel intimidated.

You're up against the real deal.

Your mind will have gone blank. Out of anxiety.

Go, Monster Pervert. Beat him, Monster Pervert.

Crush him, Monster Pervert.

B and G took the case...

and it's a big one. We'll meet Mr. Bang, right?

Mr. Go.

What's that?

Why are you interrupting my skin care time?

How soft.

The trial matters more than your skin.

Their lawyer...

Him? He'll never take it.

He knows I'll win,

so he'll send out just anyone as a sacrifice...

and then fire him.

Mr. Go, this came from B and G Law Firm.

Who did they appoint?

Kang Gi Seok.

Gi Seok is the scapegoat.

You'll get to see a sparrow get torn in two...

trying to keep up with a crane.

You spent two years together.

Even if it's 15 years and not 2, an enemy's an enemy.

I'm sure it is.

That's why you gave him this photo...

to congratulate him on his win.

You can't let anyone celebrate, can you?

You are bothered, aren't you?

No. It's the opposite.

I always dreamed of this moment.

An African proverb says...

It'll go one way or the other this time.

- If you lose... - If I lose,

I won't be needed anymore in this firm.

I wasn't going to stay for long.

I came here just to go against Tae Rim.

Win-win.

As long as we each get what we wanted.

If that's what you think.

Why would you ask when the outcome's obvious?

I'm sick of putting up with the old men who grumble that...

I'm paying a kid too much.

I got it today.

Why you agreed so readily...

when I suggested we hire Gi Seok.

You didn't care how many cases he'd won.

When Tae Rim first saw him,

he had a different look.

My heart sank.

But Gi Seok didn't show any emotion.

This is the situation you wanted to create.

You knew Tae Rim would waver.

He badmouthed Gi Seok...

and called him names just to put on a show.

Despite that, I could see right through him.

Even if it's his trash,

he can't stand someone else taking it to shred it to pieces.

Love him or hate him, Gi Seok is his apprentice.

Tae Rim was yours too.

That's why I'm trying this hard, okay?

I taught him wrong.

Crushing him is my way of making amends.

If he fights to crush his own,

Gi Seok will end up a failure of a lawyer...

who isn't worth his pay...

despite betraying his mentor.

Who would care for someone like that?

Mr. James Park or Park Nan Bong...

Say it properly.

It's Nam Bong, not Nan Bong.

Please be silent.

Counsel, please continue.

Sure.

Park Nam Bong's composition "Lunar Star"...

seems to be...

plagiarized from "Crazy Love in Andromeda"...

by Andromeda Sophia, Son Hye Jung.

We demand that all sales of the song be halted...

and 70 percent of the profits be paid to my client...

by Mr. Park and DParks Entertainment.

The approximate amount is 2,950,000 dollars.

You liar.

First of all, both songs have similar themes.

For example, these are a few lyrics from "Lunar Star".

"I will pluck, pluck, pluck the stars and moon for you."

"Oh, my Lunar Star."

"This is my, my, my signal from outer space."

Meanwhile, here are a few lyrics from "Crazy Love in Andromeda".

"I don't want the stars or the moon. Nothing from Andromeda."

"I threw away my bloody pus in outer space."

Now, let's take a look at the chorus.

This is from "Lunar Star". "The cute rabbit, rabbit, rabbit."

"What are you going to do with my heart..."

"that's bouncing on the moon?"

"I'm helpless for you. Oh, my Lunar Star."

This is from "Crazy Love in Andromeda".

"The dark bat, bat, bat."

"The crazy love in Andromeda. Let's just throw away..."

"my foolish love and regret as far away as I can."

They practically copied everything.

And not just the lyrics.

The melodies of both songs are also very similar.

On the left, you can see the score for "Crazy Love in Andromeda".

Let's compare that with "Lunar Star" which is on the right.

This part, this part, this part, and this part.

You can see that there are so many similar melodies.

- Really? - They're identical.

Then can I hear the songs?

Okay, then. I will now begin.

Pluck, pluck, pluck

I will pluck, pluck, pluck the stars and moon for you

Oh, my Lunar Star

This is my, my, my signal

From outer space

The cute rabbit, rabbit, rabbit

- What are you going to do - Wait.

Are you singing "Lunar Star"?

Yes, it's "Lunar Star".

What are you going to do with my heart

- That's bouncing - Excuse me.

Can you please follow the music score?

That's what I'm doing, Your Honor.

What are you going to do with my heart

That's bouncing on the moon?

This is my, my, my signal

Lunar Star

This is a function graph that mathematically analyzed...

the similarities of the melody between the two songs.

"Lunar Star" is the x-axis.

And "Crazy Love in Andromeda" is the y-axis.

Then we calculated the similarities of the melodies.

Oh, I see.

If we convert this into a percentage,

the result is 33.7 percent.

In other words, it means only one third...

of the entire song coincides with the other song's melody.

However, all the past songs that got ruled as plagiarism...

had a percentage of 50 percent or higher.

I think there was a problem with the calculation method.

Function graphs are...

Please stay quiet.

Your Honor.

This is a proverb they say in Kenya.

"A puma doesn't get jealous over a leopard's spots."

That's because their hide prevents them from getting hunted.

It's natural for humans to be jealous of beautiful things.

But we should also know that our jealousy could get us in trouble.

Welcome back. How did the trial go?

It's a hard fight.

That's all because of you.

What? What did I do?

Do you really not know? Can't you sense what went wrong?

What? What exactly are you talking about?

Forget it. I'm the one to blame for making you do it.

Did something happen?

No, nothing happened.

It looks delicious.

Your face looks so empty compared to before.

Don't you know what a gap is?

Why did you want to see me?

You need to make an oral statement during the next trial.

I've been waiting for that.

You must wear a suit, okay?

Let's try to prove that he wrote his song based on yours.

What? What's that supposed to mean?

It all comes down what the plagiarism was based on...

and how similar they are.

And the prior one means we need evidence to prove...

that his song was based on yours.

Can you try to remember if you had any kind of connections...

with James Park?

I didn't have any.

It can be anything.

We just need to prove that he knew your songs.

Do you think he once came to one of my live shows?

That will be hard to prove that.

Or maybe he listened to my music online.

We looked into it, and not a lot of people downloaded your song.

And it also won't be easy to prove that.

Then I don't know. How would I know?

Then how about this? Let's say you sent your song...

to James Park as a means to promote your band.

It could've either been via mail or USB.

- Did you do that? - Of course not.

- Yes, you did. - No, I didn't.

Just say you did. He gets thousands of mail every day anyway.

He probably throws away most of them without even opening it.

No, my pride as a punk rocker won't allow me to do that.

Okay, then how about this?

Let's say someone from your family...

or a friend of yours sent it to him for your sake...

as a means to support your music...

because your song really doesn't sell well.

Mr. Go.

Do you think that's a bad idea? I guess it is.

Okay, I'm sorry.

This was my first time hearing about...

Self-destructive Souls.

It was my first time.

Then have you never heard any of their songs?

Of course. I never once listened to their songs.

I tend to remember every song I listen to even just once.

It's obvious why people call him a genius.

Then let me ask you something.

What's your opinion on this lawsuit?

"Lunar Star" has become a very popular song...

not only in Korea but also in China and Japan.

A big hit.

It acted as a new wind in the music industry...

and has made the entire world to go crazy about Korean culture.

A new wind.

How can they say an incredible song like this was plagiarized?

It's very heartbreaking for both me and our country.

It breaks my heart.

That is all.

Aren't they here yet?

No.

Make a counterargument. We need to buy more time.

Pardon? Oh, okay.

Hey!

Hi!

Nice.

I'm Andromeda Sophia, a punk rocker.

Please tell me your real name.

My name is Son Hye Jung.

What came to your mind when you first listened to "Lunar Star"?

The moment I heard it, I knew someone stole our song.

You can tell just by listening to all his past songs.

He always made sad love songs...

by singing about street lamps, tears, fallen leaves, and nostalgia.

So why would he suddenly sing about outer space? It's nonsense.

Stop nitpicking.

James Park always created songs of different genres.

Defendant, please refrain from making rash comments.

Stop making comments.

Sophia, do you know a pop song called "Moonlight Highway"...

- by any chance? - No.

Then what about "The Moonlit Seine"?

I don't know that one either.

These two songs were made with the same theme.

Creation is based on many things starting from the lullabies...

you heard in your mother's arms as a baby...

to all the songs you heard both consciously and unconsciously.

And as those songs constantly pile up in your memory,

a moment comes when something suddenly comes to creation.

Those are the words of James Park.

You also might've heard these two songs in the past.

And that would've been the basis of your creation.

But no one would ever call that plagiarism.

My song is the original song.

This is what they say in Mozambique.

"The tears that fall into the Zambezi become one with the river."

I don't know what the Zambezi is, but I know that's my song.

Hey, give me back my song. Give it back to me!

- It's my song! Give it to me! - Please calm down.

If you don't, I will have to make you leave.

Be quiet! Give it back!

Give it back to me, you thief!

This may be a court

But the truth is gone

And people are lying

- Give it back to me. - I sing my fury

- What did I do wrong? Give it back. - Do not disclose the truth

People are blinded by lies

You'll lose the trial at this rate.

Don't put your guard up. I'm just trying to help.

If Kang Gi Seok loses this trial, he'll get kicked out of B and G,

and he'll be ostracized from the legal circle.

I hate that jerk so much.

I just...

hate him.

You owe me now.

I knew that idiot would cause trouble.

What were you two thinking?

Who sings in the courtroom?

It was fun. It's such a great song.

Mr. Go.

Also, I asked you to wear a suit today, Sophia.

I told her to dress like a rocker.

- The rock spirit! - Spirit!

Why did you say that to her?

You know how conservative those in the legal world are,

and the presiding judge of the trial is particularly conservative.

Look at that. Who wears that to the courtroom?

You may think that now.

I'm back.

What's going on?

Hey, what are you guys doing in my office now?

What's going on? Let go.

Let go, okay? Let go!

I'm Yoon Sang Koo. You'd better let go of me!

Do you guys want to get fired?

You, I'll be sure to remember your face.

Both of you, I've seen your faces.

You two are totally fired.

What's going on? What is it?

What is that?

What is it?

Have a look.

54 percent...

So he copied the song. It's considered plagiarism.

Gosh, what is that?

Oh, this.

I was just curious.

I got my acquaintances who are good with computers to do this for me.

Only I have seen this.

He saw you...

giving it to Jae In at the court earlier.

The melody, harmonies, rhythm, beat, tempo,

lyrics, and so on.

In songs, there are too many variables...

for them to be analyzed mathematically.

One analysis shows 58 percent.

This one is 47 percent.

One of them shows 33 percent, the one that was used in the trial.

You can change the percentage by altering the values slightly.

In other words, unless you can prove its objective credibility,

this cannot even be considered evidence.

Then we shouldn't be worried about how Monster Pervert has it now?

It might actually help us.

Really?

Yoon Sang Koo.

Yes, sir. Did you just call me?

It doesn't mean what you did will be forgiven.

Okay?

You brought a piece of garbage again.

Why is that garbage?

The probability is over 50 percent.

You're so gullible. You believe everything you hear, don't you?

Then what? Are you saying he intentionally...

Whether it was done on purpose or not, relying on such things...

won't help you win.

He's hiding something.

That's why he keeps on trying to distract us.

Kang Gi Seok, try and use your brain all you want.

You're still in the palm of my hand.

Mr. Gu, if Mr. Kang loses the trial,

what will happen to him?

It can't get him fired from B and G or ostracized...

from the legal world, right?

Such preposterous things won't happen, right?

I'm not sure.

That will happen if worst comes to worst.

Really? Things will get that bad?

Reputation is everything in this industry.

Fantastic.

No wonder Mr. Bang recommended you as the best lawyer in his firm.

You're very impressive.

- Amazing. - Gosh, I'm flattered.

You don't need to be so modest.

I know what kind of lawyer we're going up against.

I heard he's never lost a single case.

Thanks to you, he'll experience his first defeat this time.

Well...

That being said,

could you do an interview, Mr. Park?

There they are.

Mr. Park, please say a few words.

Sweet Girls, how do you feel about the lawsuit?

We feel terrible for making our fans worry about...

such an incident.

For the sake of our song, "Lunar Star",

we hope everything gets resolved soon.

I'll tell you whose song it is.

It belongs to all of you, Sweet Girls' fans.

Completely ignoring that fact and demanding money...

is an act of insulting all the fans as well as the song itself.

It's sad, indeed.

They launched an attack first.

He sure is your mentee.

Don't call him my mentee.

It's not like a singing parrot can become a singer.

These days,

I'm seeing many comments online that may work to our disadvantage.

That won't affect the trial at all.

Well, the situation seems to have changed a little.

These are some of the comments posted by Sweet Girls' fans.

"The band, Self-destructive Souls,"

"insulted Sweet Girls just to promote itself."

"I want that band gone from this planet."

"We must kill that corrupt, money-grubbing lawyer first."

"Let's raid his office."

Mr. Go, they even posted a map here.

Gosh.

I can't read these terrible curse words out loud.

They're all basically about wanting to kill us.

Don't let that little stone scare you.

Call the police!

Tell them we've been attacked. This is an attack!

Tell the police to send us the SWAT team.

This is urgent, Mr. Gu. Call them now!

Who did this? Come out!

Don't hide like a coward. Reveal yourself!

Come on out. Don't hide!

Stop it.

Don't.

There may be another attack, but the police aren't sending cops over.

Does this make any sense to you?

Do you have to walk around wearing that?

So? What brings you here?

We want to drop the suit.

What? Sophia, take your time and think about it again.

That's what they want.

I'm concerned for our safety. I heard you were attacked too.

Didn't you say you're a rocker?

Where did your rock spirit go?

Drop it if you're scared.

All you do is wear your showy makeup.

After all, you're fake rockers who have no rebellious spirit...

or interest in making a change in the world.

She wants to drop it because she's worried about you people.

Bring it on. Tell them to hurl more stones or even boulders at us.

My gosh, Mr. Go!

- Mr. Go! - Mr. Go.

My gosh!

Mr. Go! Are you all right?

- Pull out the rock. - Oh, okay.

Mr. Go, we won't drop the suit.

We will fight until the end.

No, I'm done. I can't do this. I'm too scared!

Mr. Go.

You should stay somewhere safer for the time being.

- Sorry? - Just until the trial is over.

That's what the police are suggesting.

What's going to be your counterattack, Tae Rim?

What was that?

You're up.

Good morning.

"Good morning"? How is this a good morning?

I might get a herniated disk because of that cheap sofa.

And this place is so cramped that it's suffocating.

On top of that, there are even cockroaches crawling around.

How do you live in such a lowly place?

I lived just fine until now.

Watch what you say. You're living under my roof now.

I finally understand...

why your soul always felt so filthy and indecent.

It's a lot better than a soul that cares about nothing but money.

Of course.

Goodness. Hello, Judge Song.

Long time no see, Mr. Gu.

We haven't met ever since we ran for charity three years ago.

Yes, you're right.

Tae Rim, this is my house.

If you don't like it, you can fight with me.

Mr. Gu, what's Judge Song and Chirp Chirp...

I mean, how does she know Jae In?

She's the house owner, and she's a tenant.

You knew that, and you never told me anything about it?

Why? Would you have fired Jae In if you knew?

Goodness, of course not.

Jae In, you should've come upstairs. Why did you sleep here with them?

It was so late.

Anyway, it seems like you slept over because you needed to.

But if you're going to complain about my house like that,

you can pack up and leave.

Now that I look closely, it's a very classic house.

The sofa's comfy, and the place is tiny but cozy.

And judging by the bugs, it must also be nature-friendly.

I envy you.

Lower your head.

We might get attacked if someone sees us.

Okay.

They're over there! Catch them!

See? I told you that this was a bad idea.

You're the one who was after the compensation.

What? What's going on?

Most people in the industry know about this.

It's a list of ghostwriters who work for James Park.

Ghostwriters? Does that mean they write songs for him?

No, never. That's never happened.

Who's the person...

that brought you Self-destructive Souls' song?

Anthony called a while ago.

He said he found something very important.

An idol group once used these lyrics in their song.

"Handstanding underneath the Joshua Tree."

Those lyrics are from a song we wrote three years ago.

That means it's been three years...

since James Park started referencing those songs.

I didn't make that song.

Charlotte made them.

- Char... - Lotte?

Why are you telling me that now?

Please give me Charlotte's number.

Mr. Gu, drive as fast as you can.

Perseverance. Perseverance.

Perseverance. Gosh.

Who didn't flush the toilet?
