All language subtitles for Watch Norigae- Her Tears (2013) - Free Movies - Tubi

This movie is based on true events.

On my way home,
I met a kitten.

It was so pretty, with big eyes
and white-and-orange fur.

Had a mommy cat
lost her baby?

I waited and waited,
but no cat showed up.

I decided to take
the kitten home.

Heaven would punish me
if I left it on the streets.

NORIGAE : HER TEARS

Hello, everyone.

I'm Lee Jang-ho
from Maenttang News.

I'm standing in front
of the courthouse.

Today is the first day of the trial
regarding actress Jung Ji-hee's death.

Mainstream media are too focused on
actress Go Da-ryung's involvement.

This case is about an actress
who was abused by the powerful.

The prosecution should
charge all of them with sex crimes.

Correct

Correct

Correct
Am I done?

I'm done, right?

- You're done.
- Right?

I'm done...
Wait!

We will be following
this trial very closely.

We'll show you the truth Ms. Jung
sought to expose through her death

as well as the proceedings
of the trial itself.

See you after the trial.

Get some more footage.

That wasn't bad.

You're the king of
alternate news sources.

What's the editor of Korea's No.1
newspaper doing at a place like this?

I heard your last video got
300 thousand views.

Don't be ridiculous.
It was 400 thousand.

That's impressive.

Let's go have some coffee.

Why would I have
coffee with you?

Who knows?

I could help you with your
wrongful termination lawsuit.

Are you admitting Hankook Daily
put pressure on them?

No, I'm not.

But we could put in
a good word for you.

Don't you want to return
to a news network?

I still have access
to news networks.

Wow...

You need a lot of money
to afford suits like that.

Someday, you should be able to
wipe your ass with checks.

See you.

Jang-ho, wait!

Will you be okay?

No, I feel like
I'm about to die.

Where are my anxiety pills?

No, I'm talking about
the president of Hankook Daily.

Should you go after him?

He's the owner of Korea's
biggest newspaper.

You could get hurt.

Criminals must be investigated,
indicted and punished.

Yes?

- Hello, one and all.
- Mr. Lee.

Looks like the police prosecutor
and trial prosecutor are strategizing.

- Should I leave?
- No.

It's fine.

Then, excuse me.

It's a circus outside.

My anxiety pills...

I still can't believe you
indicted President Hyun.

This is your chance
to get in the spotlight.

The one getting in the spotlight
will be Prosecutor Kim.

Really?

Defendant Choi Chul-soo
is a movie director.

On May 14th, 2012 at a room salon
called "Inferno" in Apgujeong...

He touched the victim's breasts
under her shirt.

And put his hand on her underwear.

He is being charged
with indecent assault.

- Prosecutor.
- Yes?

Are you okay?

Now, I feel like I'm dying.

I'm fine, Your Honor.

Continue.

Oh...

What's wrong with her?

This is her first ever
criminal trial.

Defendant Cha Jung-hyuk is
the CEO of Cobest Entertainment.

On June 7th, 2012 at Inferno,
he threatened the victim by saying

'Show him a good time,
or I'll kill you.'

He also beat her over
the head multiple times.

Thus, she was forced to do
something outside of her duties.

He is being charged
with coercion.

There's the big fish.

Defendant Hyun Sung-bong is
the president of the newspaper Hankook Daily.

He was one of the individuals being
entertained at Inferno on June 7th, 2012.

He knew the victim was being forced
to do something outside of her duties.

He is being charged
with aiding and abetting.

Thank you, Prosecutor.

Counsellor, let's hear your
opening statement.

First, I'll address defendant
Choi Chul-soo's allegations.

Jung Ji-hee was cast in
his movie 'Goodbye My Love'.

Defendant Cha Jung-hyuk
wanted to thank him for that.

While the defendant
was singing and dancing

his hand brushed against
the victim's body.

It wasn't intentional
sexual harassment.

The allegations against defendant
Cha Jung-hyuk are also untrue.

He never threatened her or used
violence to force her attendance.

He simply told her to
make a good impression.

He was lecturing her as the CEO
of her agency.

- Counsellor Yoon?
- Yes, Your Honor.

Honorable judge...

First, I'd like to pay my respects
to the dead victim, Jung Ji-hee.

Defendant Hyun Sung-bong
is the president of Hankook Daily

which is the biggest
newspaper in Korea.

For the last 30 years, he advocated
for the freedom of the press.

He fought against authority
and for the people's right to know.

A tabloid isn't a newspaper!

Order in the court!

Please continue.

It's true that the defendant attended
the gathering in question.

But I'm not sure his attendance
equals aiding and abetting.

Your Honor, I'm sure you'll
judge on this matter wisely.

Here they come!

Did you receive
sexual favors?

President Hyun, did you
receive sexual favors?

We'd like an answer!

President Hyun, did you
receive sexual favors?

Did you...
Hey, wait!

You've worked hard to become
a prosecutor like your dad.

I'm so proud of you.

How are you managing?

That's not why you
asked to see me.

You're right.

Mi-hyun...

Drop the charge against
President Hyun.

You've embarrassed
yourself enough already.

A prosecutor and a lawyer shouldn't
discuss a case outside of court.

You and I both know
that it's a long shot.

What about the footage
from the room salon entrance?

You should take care of that
before you try to negotiate.

There are useful evidence
and useless evidence.

Useful evidence can
be rendered useless.

The opposite is
also possible.

That's the power you hold.

Will the people think
that footage is useless?

The trial isn't up to the people.

It's up to us.

Public opinion is important
in this day and age.

Why are you being
so stubborn?

Why should we care
about one actress?

Witness, how did you
acquire this document?

I got it in the mail
the day after her funeral.

Who sent it to you?

The name and address
were fake, so I'm not sure.

What did you do after you
acquired this document?

I checked if that's really
Cha Jung-hyuk's email address.

Then, I went to the room salon
and interviewed the owner.

I verified the facts by watching
the entrance footage.

Then, you reported on it
on your PBS news show?

Yes.

Your Honor.

We'd like to submit the last e-mail
the victim wrote to the defendant as evidence.

Let's look at the evidence.

Mr. Cha, you're the devil.

I tolerated things when
Director Choi mistreated me.

I had to give him sexual favors
because he promised to cast me.

Sexual favors aren't part
of his charge, correct?

That's right.

How can you call
yourself a prosecutor?

Order, please.

You saw what President Hyun
did to me last night.

If I leave your agency, you'll make it
impossible for me to work in this industry?

Why don't you try it?

I wrote about every single person
I was forced to pleasure in my diary.

If you don't let me go,
I'll show it to the police.

- What about this diary?
- We couldn't find it.

Counsellor, you may
cross-examine the witness.

Witness...

The defendants sued you for defamation
because of your broadcast, correct?

Yes, it's a civil suit.
You're the opposing lawyer.

Please answer only yes or no.

Yes, but in my opinion
it's a strategy for this trial.

What do you mean?

You brought a civil suit against me
in order to influence this trial.

- Witness...
- Witness, I'll be the judge of that.

Counsellor, you may proceed.

How many times have you
been sued for defamation?

That seems irrelevant.

Objection, that question
is irrelevant to this trial.

It's a question about his
qualifications as a witness.

Let's hear it.

Witness, answer the question.

34 times, but I've never lost.

You lost the 2009 suit about
your broadcast on National Tax Service.

That wasn't because
the facts were wrong.

It was a partial loss, all because
I called government employees pigs.

You said you never lost.

The judge told the prosecutor to change
my charge to insult and fined me.

My broadcast was accurate,
so the government employees...

Your Honor, please keep in mind that
the witness has been fired from his network.

I'm currently suing them for
wrongful termination.

That's enough.

Do you have any more
questions for the witness?

No, Your Honor.

No, Your Honor.

Witness, you are excused.

- Is witness Go Da-ryung here?
- No, Your Honor.

Order!

Prosecutor, do you
insist on summoning her?

Go Da-ryung was the star actress
of Cha's entertainment agency.

She was also present the night
Hyun was being entertained.

We'll convince her to
attend the next session.

Please do so.

Counsellor Yoon.

Will defendant Hyun Sung-bong
attend the next session?

Yes, Your Honor.
I'll make sure of it.

- Hey, how's Mi-rin?
- How's Mi-rin?

How can you ask that?

What's wrong now?

You promised to stay out of trouble
until your lawsuit is over.

This is no time to be doing
an internet news show!

To make matters worse,
you got Jin-tae involved.

Do you want me to
fight with my sister?

Oh, Jin-tae?

He's doing great.

Don't be ridiculous.

Isn't it enough that
we have to live apart?

Why are you so selfish?

Just get over here.

Don't you feel
sorry for Mi-rin?

- I'll think about it.
- Think about what?

- We should just get divorced!
- Hello, hello?

- This isn't a family!
- I can't hear you.

- I'll call you back.
- Lee Jang-ho, I'll kill you!

Uncle...

Someone's been following us.

All the way from Seoul.

Who is that?

Now...

What the hell?

Catching fish instead of
criminals again?

You scared the fish away.

If you can't help,
don't get in my way.

Did you catch a lot?

- The diary...
- Where's the camera?

It's all the way over there.

Your face will be
too small to recognize.

Is Jin here, too?

Why are you interviewing
me separately?

Why would I work
with that bastard?

Where's the diary?

How should I know?
Ask the police prosecutor.

You're the No.2 prosecutor, so
you know everything about the case.

Stop pretending otherwise!

Stop scaring the fish away!

This whole thing is
against our wishes.

The police prosecutor wanted to
indict Hyun, so we just let her.

Really?

What if Hankook Daily retaliates?

It's all thanks to her father.

They're scared of him because
he's a Supreme Court Justice.

Do you want me to steal it
from the evidence room?

Where's the diary?

The police ruled it
as a mere suicide.

No preservation, no forensics.
There wasn't even an autopsy.

They re-opened the case after
the funeral because of you.

How should we know
who took the diary?

What about the sexual favors?

You found evidence, right?

Come on, I'm trying to fish!

Listen...

She's already dead, so who would
confess that they slept with her?

You know that!

- Damn it...
- Fine, you win.

I guess I should
change my angle.

I heard all about
your sponsor in Busan.

I should go see him.

Lee...

If I don't get a promotion,
I'll have to resign.

Damn it!

I'm off.

About Cha Jung-hyuk...

Three years ago, he was
accused of something similar.

He fled abroad, and only
returned when things got quiet.

That's why this time,
he's being held without bail.

I heard Cha liked to
drink with his actresses.

Is that true?

It happened all the time.

He drank with one
of us every night.

Did you all have to attend?

Actresses have to make
their faces and names known.

We couldn't refuse if a TV producer
or a movie director were involved.

Then...

When actresses are meeting
with all those people

sometimes they're forced
to provide sexual favors, right?

Are you curious
about that, too?

Another journalist asked
me the same question.

Do I have to answer?

Can't you tell the truth now?

Time has passed, and you're not
in the industry anymore.

It would help young girls
who dream of acting.

Why should I tell
my story for their sake?

Will they change their minds
about wanting to become stars?

I doubt it.

Even though this is my life now,
I still have my pride.

Let's end the interview.

Edit it well, and don't forget to
blur my face and mask my voice.

I'm appearing on TV after so long

But I can't tell
my mom to watch.

On May 14th, 2012...

Did defendants Cha and Choi
come to your room salon Inferno?

They did.

Director Choi was about
to make a new movie.

So, he had met with actresses.

- Director Choi...
- Huh?

What are you doing?

Sorry, I guess
my hand is too cold.

Director, you're so naughty!

I was just dancing...

That was before Go Da-ryung was
cast in the leading role, right?

I'm not sure about that.

Witness...

Cha asked Choi to cast
Go Da-ryung in the lead role

and the victim
in a supporting role.

You told the police yourself.

Did I say that?

I don't remember.

Witness, does the karaoke machine
change the room's lighting?

Yes, it becomes dark.

You testified that you turned around
when you heard a scream.

That's right.

It was dark, so you couldn't
spot them right away.

Did you see the defendant's hands on
the victim's breasts and underwear?

Well...

What if his hand had accidentally
brushed against the victim?

Maybe the victim just
overreacted out of surprise.

Objection!

The counsellor is
leading the witness.

Sustained.

Counsellor, please
change the question.

Here's my next question.

How did the victim seem to feel
after returning from the bathroom?

Objection!

He's asking the witness to
speculate how the victim felt.

Let me rephrase
the question.

After the incident, what
was the atmosphere like?

Objection, that's irrelevant
to the trial at hand.

Despite what happened,
the victim didn't leave right away.

The atmosphere could indicate
the victim's emotional state.

Overruled.

Counsellor, continue.

I'll ask again.

After the incident, what
was the atmosphere like?

The atmosphere was fine.

I think Jung decided to assume
it was a drunken mistake.

No further questions.

It's strange.

When I was a prosecutor, I mixed
liquors because I was so busy.

I'm a lawyer now, but
I still drink it this way.

What do you
think of this trial?

I don't have much to say
about my defendants.

But I feel sorry for
President Hyun.

You feel sorry for him?

He shouldn't have
been indicted.

It was just because
of public outrage.

In the past, they would have
settled down after a while.

But not anymore.

Nowadays, every single idiot
has a voice on social media.

You know, this trial...

We all know what
the outcome will be.

Your defendants' reputations
have already suffered.

I can't let that happen
to my defendant.

Do your best only when
the situation calls for it.

You don't want to be
a lawyer forever, right?

Witness, were you the stylist
at Cobest Entertainment?

Yes.

On May 17th, 2012...

Did you go to 'Studio Feel'
for the victim's photoshoot?

Yes.

You said you heard the victim say that
Choi is no different from other men, right?

Objection.

The prosecutor is asking the witness
to provide hearsay evidence.

Sustained.

On May 26th, 2012

were you and the victim
at the set of Choi's movie?

You can't do this.

There was no sex
scene in the script.

As I told you,
we changed the script.

In this scene, Won-jae gets drunk
and rapes Da-ryung's friend.

This deepens the conflict
between the two leads.

Don't you get that?

Still, how can you demand something
like this without prior discussion?

Hey, assistant director!

Yes, sir!

Director Choi...

Who do I need
to run it by?

Your CEO, Cha?

This is fucking embarrassing.

Cha...

Have you eaten?

Listen...

We made some
script changes.

We need Ji-hee to
do a sex scene.

Why?

Does it matter?

Because it's fucking necessary!
Isn't that enough?

I'll get her on the phone.

Take it.

Right now!

Why is art so fucking
hard to make?

Yes, sir.

But this is too much...

Then, they cancelled the rest
of her scheduled scenes.

She was deeply hurt by that.

I think she felt used.

I see...

I have one final question.

Did she ever mention
providing sexual favors?

We were close, but
we were still work friends.

She wouldn't have told me
something so shameful.

I guess you're right.

Let's end it here.

Thank you for your time.

- Wait...
- What is it?

The night she died,
she called me.

But I'd just gotten home after
working with Da-ryung.

I was so fast asleep that
I didn't hear my phone ring.

If I had only answered it...

I feel so guilty.

Director Choi thought nothing of
making Ji-hee take off her clothes.

I drove her home, and
left soon afterwards.

But I had forgotten
my keys at her place.

Why are you back?

I left my car keys.

Didn't you hear
the doorbell?

I was busy with something.

What?

Ji-hoon, stop this.
You've got it all wrong.

Let go of me.

- Kneel down.
- Stop this!

Get it all out!

Why didn't you
mention this before?

You didn't ask.

Did you tell
Cha about this?

No, Ji-hee wouldn't let me.

You should have told him.
Taking care of actors was your job.

Step outside for a while.

Okay.

What good would
it have done?

Mr. Lee

Ji-hee finally killed herself
to escape Cha.

But Cha and these powerful people
that abused her...

Those devils are still alive.

Seems you know the identity of
those devils, right?

No, I don't.

I have to go now.

Okay, see you.

Hey, wait...

I have one final question.

You discovered her body,
so I thought I'd ask.

Haven't you seen
Ji-hee's diary?

No, I haven't.

All right.

You can go now.

Thanks.

It's time to give up.

But it's finally starting
to get interesting.

What's the point of finding
a dead bitch's diary?

That's pretty harsh.

We couldn't find it.
Neither could the prosecution.

What makes you think
you can succeed?

It would be fun
if I did, right?

They'd all piss themselves.

It won't change anything.

It'll just give you a headache.

Hey...

I'm not expecting
things to change.

But it's the only way
to scare your boss.

I'm saying this as a friend.

Stop this.

Think about your wife and
daughter in the Philippines.

Are you trying to
turn this into a thriller?

Is that a threat?

Here's your order.
Please enjoy.

You've changed.

What happened to
the activist I once knew?

Don't patronize me.

All right.

- Well, then...
- Where are you going?

Buy me drinks once in a while
if you're going to keep following me.

Hey, Jang-ho!

Drink up.

Let's keep it civil.

Bye.

- Hello, Jin-suk.
- Go away.

- Wait...
- Get lost!

Get that camera
out of my face!

Come on...

Jin-suk, don't be like this.

I had to move to this
countryside because of you.

How dare you show your face?

Leave, I'm warning you.

Your dead sister wouldn't
want you to bury your feelings.

Whoa...

Uncle, are you all right?

Why'd you hit him?

- Are you okay?
- My eye...

Sorry about that.

But it's your fault for
making me sue them.

Why did you close
your Chinese restaurant?

Once I sued them, journalists
wouldn't leave me alone.

I got more interview
requests than food orders.

It was too bad for business.

But did you really
have to close?

I started hearing voices.

That owner's sister is Jung Ji-hee.
She sold her body to powerful men.

I couldn't take it.

That's why I decided to close.

I heard that she came here
a week before she died.

These offerings are pathetic.

Mom will be
so disappointed.

She'll say she didn't
raise us right.

Then, why don't you
do it yourself?

Can't you just get married?

What?

Introduce me to
a nice girl, then.

Have you ever
looked in the mirror?

I can't do that
to my friends.

- What?
- What what?

Next year, I'll just
pay a professional.

No way!

I'll try my hand at it.

- Are you serious?
- Sure.

Jin-suk...

Should I quit acting?

Why, is it too hard?

No...

I guess I'm just a little tired.

Mr. Lee

People will mention Ji-hee whenever
a female celebrity commits suicide.

Maybe we should expose
the truth and clear her name.

I want you to be the one
to tell Ji-hee's story.

I don't have a family anymore.

And here, no one
recognizes me.

So, it's all right.

From April to June of 2012

you worked at Inferno
as an escort, right?

Yes.

Were you with defendants
Cha and Hyun on June 7th, 2012?

Yes.

Hyun arrived first
that night, correct?

Yes.

It was a little over
ten o'clock.

Madame and President Hyun
were already in the room.

Mr. Cha arrived about
thirty minutes later.

Did he come alone?

Hello, President Hyun.

No, he brought a girl.

This is one of our talents.

I'd just started working there, so
I thought she was another escort.

But later, I found out
she was Jung Ji-hee.

What was the atmosphere like?

I'd never seen anything like it.

That girl wouldn't say a word!

Oh, what should I call
the dead actress?

Victim is fine.

President Hyun, what an honor.
Thank you for making time for me.

- Here you go.
- Thanks.

Da-ryung isn't the only
talented girl at my agency.

She didn't seem like
a haughty person.

But she did seem angry.

Here you go, President Hyun.

Objection, the witness is making
assumptions about others' feelings.

Witness, how much longer
did you stay in that room?

About thirty minutes.

I pretended to go
to the bathroom.

I couldn't stand
the icy atmosphere.

Witness, before defendant Cha and
Jung Ji-hee entered the room

you were with defendant
Hyun for thirty minutes?

Yes.

Did defendant Hyun say that
he asked for an actress?

No.

Did you hear defendant Hyun
calling defendant Cha

And asking to bring an actress?

No.

No further questions.

Conversely, did you hear Hyun saying
that the victim shouldn't have come?

Your Honor, the prosecutor is
making a far-fetched claim.

According to the witness's testimony,
my client was simply meeting with Cha.

Cha just happened to
bring the victim.

It was clear that the victim was
being forced to drink with him.

And yet, he did nothing.

The prosecution hasn't even proven
defendant Cha's coercion charge.

The witness has made it clear
that it was against her will.

Yes, I get both of
your arguments.

Please calm down.

Do you have further questions?

- No, Your Honor.
- No, Your Honor.

Witness, you are dismissed.

I understand the defense
requested a witness?

Yes, Your Honor.

I swear to tell the truth,
adding nor hiding nothing.

Or else, I will accept
the charge of perjury.

From October 2011
to June 2012

you worked at Cha's agency,
Cobest Entertainment?

Yes.

What was your job title?

I was a road manager.

On June 7th, 2012
at around 7 PM

did defendant Cha
summon you to his office?

Yes.

What was he doing
when you arrived?

He was talking to
Ji-hee on the phone.

What did the defendant
say to the victim?

He told her to prepare to meet
with someone important.

Did defendant Cha swear at
or threaten the victim?

He didn't.

That day, why were you
summoned by Cha?

I'm not sure.

Who went to pick up
the victim that day?

Mr. Cha did.

You drive her around on
official business, correct?

Yes.

Does that mean it was
unofficial business?

I'm not sure.

When we interviewed you...

You said that on
June 2nd, 2012

the victim came by the office and
argued with defendant Cha, right?

Until when do I have to
support Da-ryung?

It's up to you to improve
your acting skills...

Do you think
I'm slacking off?

I do every dirty thing
you tell me to do.

Be careful, or
everyone will hear.

I want you to let me go.

Let you go where?

I want a fresh start.

Then, shall we review
your contract?

Actually, I've memorized it.

You'd have to pay a penalty for breaking
your contract and canceling projects.

Do you have that
kind of money?

You spent what I helped you make
on clothes, food and leisure.

And all your brother has is
a shabby Chinese restaurant.

Are you seriously
doing this to me?

Choose your stance carefully.

Do you want some sympathy,
or a legal fight?

I think she asked him to
cancel her contract.

Objection, that's
just an assumption.

No further questions.

Witness, you are dismissed.

- Is there another witness?
- No, Your Honor.

Prosecutor, what's going on
with witness Go Da-ryung?

She's abroad right now,
but she'll return soon.

We can't wait forever.

Next session, we'll finish
with the witnesses.

Are there any objections?

Your Honor, I think we should
serve her another subpoena.

We'll see if we can
get in touch with her.

Prosecutor, wait.

Don't you want to
win this trial?

What do you mean?

The trial is almost over.
Where's your trump card?

Do you think
this is what I want?

I can't get in touch
with Go Da-ryung.

How have you been
contacting her?

Through her mother.

You're way too naive.

You should have left this
up to the trial prosecutor.

- Mr. Lee.
- What is it?

Have you found her diary?

I'm looking for it.

How did you
know about that?

Journalists are only
interested in such matters.

Stop telling me what to do and
focus on your own problems.

You're still getting
beat up at that age...

I let him hit me.

I'm too shy
to hit strangers.

Hey, are you listening?

Da-ryung is a victim, too.

Do you know how much
emotional pain she felt?

She couldn't eat for days.

I'm not happy with
the press at all.

They claim she became a star by
using the dead girl and pleasuring men.

My daughter was already getting
lead roles before joining that agency.

Right...

She's been summoned
as a witness many times.

She's a victim, too.

She even needed therapy.

The press kept badgering her,
so she went abroad with her sister.

Is there no chance
she'll attend the trial?

That's up to her.

She has been getting
court documents.

But she hasn't mentioned
returning to Korea.

The prosecutor said that
they can't get in touch with her.

What?

How strange.

I thought they were
contacting her directly.

I've worked with top stars
over the last ten years.

I don't run my
agency that way.

INTERVIEW: YOO YOUNG-SOO
FORMER ACTRESS FROM CHA'S AGENCY

When I signed the contract,
I thought I'd become a star soon.

But I had no work
for six months.

No matter how proud
you are, you get desperate.

I'll work hard.

For any job at all.

If you drink with them,
you can get small gigs.

That's the trap.

THE INNOCENT YET SEXY
NEW TALENT: JUNG JI-HEE

There are millions
of girls like you!

You need to give
in order to receive!

I just had a drink with
an actress I cast.

Is that a crime?

Once again, I'm standing
outside the courthouse.

The trial regarding Jung Ji-hee's
death is coming to an end.

Last week, I promised to expose
the secrets around this case.

Today, I'll tell you all about
Jung Ji-hee's prior suicide attempt

and the prosecutor's
lack of trial preparation.

Please watch
the following video.

Let's go, Uncle.

Yeah, let's go.

Damn it!

They took all of
our hard drives.

This drink is half the price
of what you've done.

The other half is
letting me punch you.

- Come here.
- What do you mean?

You bastard, do you
really have to ask?

Damn it...

Jong-chul...

The world will change,
no matter what.

So, don't think you
made a big difference.

I'm off.

TOO BAD. WILL YOU GIVE US
AN UPDATE TOMORROW?

HANG IN THERE!
WAITING FOR YOUR NEXT VIDEO!

DON'T YOU POST ON THURS?
STOP SLACKING OFF!

Yes, honey?

What are you doing?

Searching the web
for a new job.

- Aren't you too old?
- I guess so.

Maybe I should
tutor kids again.

They wouldn't like you.

You're ugly and you smell
of cigarettes, right?

How did you hear
about my situation?

Do you follow my channel?

Do you think that's the only
way to keep tabs on you?

I guess Jin-tae told you.

What are you
going to do now?

I don't know.
I'm just freaking out.

You're too old to use
slang like that.

How's Mi-rin?

She's sleeping.

She's tired of
waiting for you.

She wants to go
back to Korea.

Tell me if anything happens.
We'll return right away.

Okay.

I will.

Good night.

Please allow Go Da-ryung
to give witness testimony.

It's time for a verdict.

She has already refused to
attend numerous times.

The prosecution is just
trying to delay the process.

She promised to return to
Korea by the next session.

I talked to her
over the phone.

Counsellor Yoon,
what do you think?

I agree with
Counsellor Kim.

Then, I'll arrest defendant Hyun for
not attending the trial sessions.

I want to cross-examine him.

The trial is almost over...

All right, I'll allow
the witness testimony.

If she doesn't attend this time,
I'll announce my verdict.

Is that agreed?

Yes, Your Honor.

By that time, there were
a lot of stars in our agency.

I was just a girl
who tagged along.

What took you so long?

- You told me to rest.
- You can rest when you're dead.

What more can we do?

We have a source
they don't know about.

Huh?

Trust me.

Ji-hee finally killed herself
to escape Cha.

But Cha and these powerful people
that abused her...

Those devils are still alive.

Finally she killed herself

But Cha and these powerful people
that abused her...

Those devils are still alive.

Where's her diary?

Four days before she died,
I got a phone call.

Someone wanted to report
an unjust contract.

But I was on vacation, seeing
my family in the Philippines.

So, I asked her to call
me again in a week.

The next week, when
I went back to work

everyone was talking
about Ji-hee's suicide.

So, I forgot about
that phone call.

Can you guess who
the caller was?

It was Ji-hee.

I keep thinking...

If only I had met
with her right away.

She might not
have killed herself.

That's why I feel so guilty.

For not helping Ji-hee.

Hiding the truth
won't do any good.

Only mold can grow
away from the sunlight.

I call witness
Go Da-ryung.

- Go Da-ryung?
- She's finally here!

Considering the relationship between
the witness and the defendant

it will be hard for the witness
to testify freely in front of him.

Defendant Cha, please
leave the courtroom temporarily.

On June 7th, 2012
at around 11 PM

did you go to
the room salon Inferno?

Yes.

Who told you to come?

Mr. Cha did.

What were you doing
when he called you?

I was meeting my friends.

But he suddenly called, and
told me to come immediately.

Because the president of Hankook
Daily wants to see me.

If you don't come,
it will be the death of me.

He kept saying such things,
so I had no choice.

What was the atmosphere like
when you entered the room?

Ms. Go Da-ryung!

- Nice to meet you.
- Hello.

I enjoyed your TV drama.

Da-ryung, sit down.

I wanted to meet you,
so I pestered Mr. Cha.

No worries, sir.

She's my company's treasure.

Nice to meet you, sir.

Come on, have
a drink with me.

I can't drink alcohol.

She can't drink at all.

It's her one and only flaw.

President Hyun...

My name is Jung Ji-hee.

My name is Jung Ji-hee.

I'm 25 years old...

What are you doing
in front of him?

My name is Jung Ji-hee.

I'll become a great actress.

What else happened?

President Hyun left
for a little while.

You crazy bitch!

How dare you ruin
this occasion for me!

Mr. Cha, stop!

Shut up!

Was even that too much?

She's her, and I'm me.

Why can't I get
some attention?

What the hell...

Can't you read the room?

Da-ryung is here, so
you just have to sit there!

And let him have
sex with me?

- You bitch!
- Please stop this!

Ji-hee, are you okay?

Hey...

Ji-hee...

Show him a good time,
or I'll kill you.

What happened next?

He did drugs.

Just shut up and watch.

How does it feel?

Wannabe-stars like her
are supporting your career.

Is it painful to watch?

It'll be over soon.

And then, you'll reach even
higher levels of success.

If I had been a little braver,
Ji-hee wouldn't have died.

But I was scared.

I thought my acting
career might end.

I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry.

This testimony is unrelated to
the charge against my client.

Your Honor

I'd like to subpoena defendant
Hyun for cross-examination.

Furthermore, motion to amend
the complaints against Hyun and Cha.

Article 303, sexual intercourse
through abuse of authority.

- It's a sex crime charge!
- Hooray!

- Objection, Your Honor!
- It's too late to change charges!

Order!

Order!

Order!

Mr. Lee

I felt guilt and fear, too.

I also failed to prevent
Ji-hee's death.

I couldn't believe what
she had gone through.

It made me scared
of Mr. Cha.

And I didn't want her death
to be dishonored.

I still don't know if this is
the right decision.

If it isn't...

I'll ask for Ji-hee's forgiveness
when I meet her in heaven.

Cue!

Hello, everyone.

I'm Lee Jang-ho
from Maenttang News.

I'm coming to you
via livestream.

I have a scoop regarding
Jung Ji-hee's case.

In my hand, I have
Jung Ji-hee's diary.

She recorded her dark
experiences in detail.

We should look at the entries
starting from December, 2011.

That's when her boss started forcing
her to drink and have sex with men.

She had to pleasure men
in the entertainment industry

as well as politicians, prosecutors,
businessmen, bankers and media moguls.

My name...

Do you remember it?

Do you remember
what my name is?

You're quite feisty.

Why should I remember
such a thing?

But my body might
remember you.

If it does, I'll come
find you again.

My name is...

Jung Ji-hee.

Please leave a message...

You useless piece of trash!

In this country, you can't
give anyone an inch.

Violence is the only answer.

Counsellor Yoon...

Do you have
anything to say?

I'm sorry it's getting
so messy, sir.

Can't you take care of
one female prosecutor?

Because she's the daughter of
a Supreme Court Justice?

How long do I have to
endure this humiliation?

She's just a silly girl.

President Hyun...

Do Korean prosecutors
seem like a joke to you?

You're paying me
a lot of money.

So, please trust me
to do my job.

If there's nothing else,
I'll go do some damage control.

By the way...

Why don't you ask me
if I slept with her?

That doesn't matter to me.

I don't need to know.

I just help you get
the results you want.

Come in.

Prosecutor Kim,
take a seat.

What's going on?

We need to discuss
something regarding the trial.

Your Honor, as you know...

Prosecutor Kim's father is
Justice Kim Gi-young.

I've known him
for a long time.

We went to college together.

We also passed the bar and
became prosecutors together.

He's my oldest
and dearest friend.

So, I've known Prosecutor Kim
for a long time as well.

One time, she got mumps.

I had to fill in for
her father in court.

About 20 years ago...

Her father asked me
to go drinking with him.

I'd never seen him
drink so much.

When I asked the reason...

He said his daughter
had been raped.

At his house.

By his own cousin.

It's tragic, but I think that's why
she's obsessed with this case.

Kim...

Prosecutor Kim.

That's why I'm saying this.

You should stop
coming to the trial.

Of course, sir.

How horrible...

I had no idea what
she went through.

Excuse me...

I understand how you feel.

But think of your father.

We need to protect
his reputation as a justice.

Do what he says.

Let me ask you this.

No matter what, this time
I'll send these defendants to prison.

Have you ever thought that?

Have you ever had
a case like that?

That's what this case is to me.

Uncle Yoon

You can spread that story.

I didn't come this far
just to back down.

What the counsellor just said
has nothing to do with this trial.

I have no intention
of giving up.

Ji-hee...

She keeps appearing
in my dream.

Da-ryung, what's wrong?

Mom...

Getting a conviction
might be difficult.

The only evidence we have
is your testimony.

Still, we have to try.

You should stay
abroad for a while.

That's the only way
I can protect you.

They didn't care before, but
now they all want the scoop.

What a bunch of hyenas.

Everyone, please rise.

You may be seated.

Whose is that?

Whose is it?

Sorry about that.

Bailiff, escort him out.

Stand up.

Anyone who causes a disturbance
will be escorted out immediately.

He's acting weird today.

Before we start
today's trial session

let's review the prosecution's
motion to amend the complaints.

A complaint can be amended
only when it's a similar charge.

Even when it's a similar charge,
it must be the same degree of severity.

The defendant must also be allowed
to prepare an adequate defense.

All of these factors must be
taken into consideration.

What's he saying?

In this particular case, if I were to
permit the prosecution's motion

it would be against
due process.

Therefore, I cannot permit
the complaints to be amended.

Your Honor,
please reconsider!

As I already explained, you
need a separate indictment.

Your Honor!

It's time for defendant
Hyun's cross-examination.

Defendant, sit at
the witness stand.

Prosecutor.

Prosecutor!

On June 7th, 2012

did you drink with defendant Cha
and the victim Jung Ji-hee?

Yes.

Did you ask defendant Cha
to bring the victim?

No.

Did you know she was
being forced to attend?

No.

Have you heard what witness
Go Da-ryung testified about that night?

Yes.

What do you think
of her testimony?

I swear to God
that I know nothing about it.

For the last 30 years, I've run
my newspaper ethically and honestly.

I have high moral standards.

That's why I've always been
vigilant about such matters.

This security camera photo is from
Inferno's entrance on June 7th, 2012.

Witness, is this you?

Yes.

And is this also you?

Ten minutes later, you
were holding a suitcase.

What was in it?

Prosecutor, what are
you trying to prove?

I'm asking what was
inside the suitcase.

What does that have to do
with aiding and abetting?

If you'd let me continue
cross-examining him...

Answer me.

How is this related
to his charge?

Why are you interrupting
her cross-examination?

Bailiff, escort him out!

Order, order!

This evidence is inadmissible.

- Ask him something else.
- But, Your Honor...

Have you forgotten that
I'm in charge of this trial?

If you have no further
questions, we'll move on.

Counsellor, it's time for
redirect examination.

I haven't finished
my cross-examination.

We'd like to submit
new evidence.

Objection, we haven't been
informed about this!

We don't even know what
she's intending to prove!

I intend to prove his charge.

Please check the marked page.

HANKOOK DAILY PRESIDENT HYUN, SEXUAL FAVORS.
DA-RYUNG, MR. CHA SAW US.

What is that?

Order, please.

Your Honor!

Turn that off!

Prosecutor Kim,
how dare you!

Order!

Settle down, or
you'll be detained!

Hey, hold a fair trial!

Turn it back on!

Court is adjourned!

Turn it back on!

Your Honor, I haven't finished
my cross-examination!

Give it your best shot.

I didn't reveal the last page on
my livestream, for your sake.

Prosecutor...

You did great.

I haven't finished
my cross-examination...

COURT

I haven't finished
my cross-examination!

PUNISH THE SEXUAL PREDATORS!

THE PROSECUTION SHOULD
REVEAL THE TRUTH!

REINVESTIGATE THE CASE!

I've reached a verdict for
Case 2012-Go-Dan-7465.

Before the announcement,
let me make something clear.

This is a verdict on the complaints
brought against the defendants.

It is unrelated to the allegations
of forced sexual favors.

I sentence Cha Jung-hyuk
to one year in prison.

I also sentence Choi Chul-soo
to one year in prison.

However, I grant them two years of probation
starting from the date of this sentencing.

Finally, I find defendant
Hyun Sung-bong not guilty.

45.3% of actresses have been
forced to serve and drink with men

and 62.8% of actresses have been asked
to provide sexual favors to influential figures.
