Haruki said...

getting distracted with a glass of single-malt whiskey around you is...

like watching a rerun on TV...

instead of listening to an orchestra of angels.

Do you regret it?

Enjoy the price of this deal...

as much as you can.

(Episode 1)

Raising 10,000 dollars.

It's 10,000 dollars to call.

10,000 dollars, call.

Call.

It's 10,000 dollars to call.

And I raise it by 20,000 dollars.

It's 30,000 dollars to call.

- All-in. - All-in.

So?

Is she dead?

He has a week mind,

but he got involved with a nasty girl.

She doesn't have much,

so I'm sure it'll be a piece of cake.

I don't think I can help you.

An ill-mannered businessman like me tends to be very simple.

We do not make any deals...

with someone that lost our trust once.

So what? You can't help me out?

When I took care of your daughter's illicit admission,

the National Tax Service...

came after me with a club in their hands.

I had no choice...

because the prosecution gave me so much pressure...

You came a long way,

but I'm sorry I couldn't help you out.

Please help me out, Chairman Song.

Goodness, how embarrassing.

The director of the National Tax Service is...

kneeling down to a construction worker like me?

Great place.

What a huge mess. A huge mess.

Darn it, this is so annoying.

Call 911 immediately.

And report it to the police too.

My dad called you here to stop me from doing that!

That's why you need to make a report, you idiotic son,

if you don't want to go to prison for special violence and rape...

and destroy your father's career as a public officer.

What did you say, jerk?

And clean up this place first.

Tell them you were both wasted.

And you know...

Tell them she consented, that it wasn't forced.

She got a little hurt...

while you two fooled around after getting wasted.

And you won't remember anything that can be used against you.

If she wakes up, try to settle the case first.

- If she reports it, it'll be... - It's a rape.

I was raped.

Please come quickly.

(Criminal Division 2 Courtroom)

Ms. Jang Young Mi...

followed the defendant, Do Yong Jin, back to his house...

because he agreed to lend her his book...

which she wanted that was no longer being printed.

However, the moment they entered his house,

the defendant became aggressive...

and started assaulting her.

Witness, you have testified...

that you clearly refused his approach.

How did he react to that?

When I refused,

he tore my clothes.

And then, he put his hand...

inside my skirt.

That's enough.

It's a painful memory for her to look back on.

The witness considered the defendant...

nothing more than a senior from her school.

She agreed to drink with him so she could talk about her career.

She never imagined something so horrendous would happen to her.

Mr. Do Yong Jin severely assaulted Ms. Jang Young Mi,

and she had to receive treatment for two weeks.

On top of that, he raped her.

Given that his sperm was found inside of her,

her two weeks' worth of treatment,

and his past two records of the same crime,

it is clear that he needs...

to be charged with special assault and rape.

That is all.

("A Wealthy Family's Son's Shameless Actions")

("High-Ranking Officer's Son's Sexual Assault Case")

The defense may begin their questioning.

Have you ever had a boyfriend?

Sorry?

Have you ever been in a relationship?

That's ridiculous.

No one has claimed to have gotten hit,

so of course, there's no case of assault here.

Then I'll take it that you've understood me.

Sure thing.

Also,

he's the son of an assemblyman.

He's connected with the higher-ups as well.

I'll take care of it.

(Chief Prosecutor Cha Nam Sik)

Yes.

I've been in relationships.

Then I'm guessing you've shared intimacy as well,

given that you're an adult.

Your Honor, this has nothing to do with the case.

These are crucial questions that will help us determine...

her state of mind on that day.

Continue.

You and Do Yong Jin drank until late at night,

and the mood was nice.

Afterward, you followed him to his house.

Since you've been in relationships before, I'll ask you this.

That night,

did you truly not expect...

to be intimate with him?

Your Honor, this is a defamation of character.

He is insulting her with provocative questions.

We're talking about sexual assault here.

We need to determine if there was coercion...

or if she was willing.

All right. Continue.

Did you really not expect anything?

I... I was very drunk.

And it's true that I felt comfortable around him.

But I didn't expect such a thing.

Then what did you expect?

Holding hands?

Yes.

So you only expected some hand-clapping games.

Did you hear that?

Are you sure?

Did you only expect to hold hands?

Did Chief Prosecutor Cha talk to you?

Of course.

Wrap it up. I'm busy.

Sure.

You assaulted a driver with a beer bottle,

not to mention, habitually.

Habitual cases of special assault will put you behind bars.

Sir, please indict him right away.

Yes, ma'am.

Habitual assault and special threat will raise the sentence to...

What are you doing? Don't you know my father?

Don't you know mine?

(Candidate for Minister of Justice, Seo Dong Suk)

Do you remember that lady?

Yes, I do.

She was a customer at our store.

How do you remember her when you have so many customers?

She was looking for something unusual.

"Unusual"?

What kind of store do you own?

It's a lingerie store.

Did she purchase underwear?

- Yes. - You just mentioned...

that she was looking for an unusual type of underwear.

Could you explain to us what kind of underwear it was?

That is a private matter,

and he is defaming her character.

Her answer will help us determine...

whether or not the sexual intercourse was coerced.

Continue.

What kind of underwear was it?

It was a black, mesh lingerie.

The back side was tied.

And the G-string had laces...

One minute.

That's so provocative.

I can't believe she bought that.

Is this what she had purchased?

Yes, it is.

Your sales statement says...

that she bought this on June 9. Is this correct?

Yes, we have statements for each day, so it's accurate.

I see.

I'd like to ask Do Yong Jin now.

When did you meet Jang Young Mi?

It was on June 10.

That means she purchased this one day before meeting him.

Your Honor, he is making provocative speculations...

to distort the truth.

It's a reasonable suspicion.

The defense may continue.

Is this the same underwear she wore that night?

Yes, it is.

I will now conclude my interrogation.

Prosecution, would you like to ask some questions?

I'm not ready yet, Your Honor.

The witness may return to her seat.

She expected to be intimate that night.

(Additional witness: Employee at the lingerie store)

This is all a lie. It's all a lie.

I had to play the role of a prostitute for my audition.

I wanted to focus on the role.

I bought it to boost my confidence.

- I was a prostitute for... - Right.

What she's claiming could be true.

In order to focus on her role for the audition,

she wore the provocative underwear. It could've been a coincidence...

that she drank with him that night.

She wore such underwear, was intoxicated,

and followed him to his house when she met him for the first time.

We can't tell that she had certain intentions...

just because of that.

We need to focus on the essence.

Late at night,

two young and good-looking man and woman were together.

And then, it happened.

Isn't that natural?

Is there any evidence?

Is there any proof that he assaulted...

and raped her?

Unfortunately, the only so-called proof that we have...

is her testimony.

She needed two weeks' worth of treatment for her injuries.

You could get that much for a scratch.

Is there any proof that it was...

a one-sided and coerced assault on his part?

Are you saying that the witness harmed herself?

She could've been too rough while being heavily intoxicated,

bumped into something,

or...

they could've had some sort of a fetish.

Your Honor, he's defaming her character...

with uncertain assumptions.

I'm just saying that there are many possibilities.

It may not have been a one-sided and coerced assault...

on his part.

Which one of you wanted to meet first?

It was her.

Why did she want to see you?

She said she was a junior at our club...

and was training to become an actress.

She had a favor.

What was the favor?

She knew...

that my older brother was a movie director.

She wanted me to introduce her to him.

("Self-Fabricated Scenario by a Rookie Actress")

("Intentional Approach for Screen Time")

- Sir! - Sir!

- Please comment! - Sir!

- What happened? - Please tell us!

I'm glad the truth was unveiled.

I hope this case will speak to society...

so that such a wrongful incident won't ever happen again.

Calumny will only ruin...

- one's life. - Sir.

You'll be receiving a fridge soon.

All right.

Okay.

Legal fee?

Of course, we only take cards.

We run a transparent business.

My gosh, sir. Don't you know the era we live in now?

We don't take any incentives for winning the criminal cases.

Listen. We are very different...

from those lawyers who don't have a clear conscience.

No, no.

I should thank you.

Okay. Why don't we grab soju some other time?

Bye.

This looks nice.

You jerk.

That's not true.

I trusted him because we go to the same college.

And I only went there because he said...

he would give me useful materials for my acting.

I didn't want to do that with him.

But you turned me into a prostitute...

who would sleep with men for a role in a drama.

Everything that jerk said was a lie.

I know.

I'm sure he wanted to sleep with you from the get-go.

He probably knew how to set up a trap...

for aspiring actresses like you.

You knew everything, but how could you...

So what if I knew?

- What? - What did you expect?

Did you expect a sense of justice from a man...

who defends a sexual offender?

You saw everything that jerk did to me.

Why is that important here?

Don't you know who his father is?

Don't you know how powerful he is?

But what about you? I'm sure you know your place.

Whether what he did to you...

or the truth is,

the outcome of the trial was set from the start.

The world is a trashy place.

So put yourself together.

Without power, the world will trample on you.

Don't be a fool who dreams about bringing him to justice...

or revealing the truth.

Scumbag.

Give up on the appeal...

if you want some settlement money.

I heard that the kid was a piece of trash.

I don't care if he's a piece of trash or rubbish.

I had to get him out.

You gave me this case, after all.

No, no.

This is good.

Good job.

Don't mention it.

I got handsomely paid for it.

By the way, shouldn't we charge Director Do a bit more?

He's a regular.

Hello, sir.

I owe you big time.

No.

Gosh, don't say that. It's between us.

I think you'll be able to start the construction...

for the Island Tower.

I can't help you much...

as the director of the National Tax Service.

The least I can do is lessening your worry for taxes.

Welcome, sir.

My party members are pestering me to scout you to our party.

Please give it some thought.

I'm sorry.

How could a mere construction worker work for this country?

Democracy Fighter, Song Woo Yong!

Isn't this common knowledge in Korea?

That's part of my embarrassing past.

Gosh, will you be getting into politics?

Does it mean I get to take your scoop?

You were great today.

You won the sexual assault case with a thong.

Sir, he must be a genius.

You must feel reassured.

Gosh, how did you find this gem?

All right. Why don't we take a seat?

Let's have some fun today.

Okay. Chairman Song, you invited everyone to this beautiful meeting.

To his good health! Cheers!

Cheers. Cheers.

Cheers.

- Cheers. - You were great.

Cheers.

Scumbag.

Bring him back.

You have to bring him back, you jerks!

Let go!

I'm going to kill you all!

How can this be the law?

Let go! Let go of me! Bring him back, you jerks!

Come here, you scumbags.

Come here!

Darn it. You scared me for a second.

Goodness.

Hey.

Why do you come to my house...

more frequently than you go to your house?

I booked a VIP medical checkup at Hanjoo Hospital.

It's in two days.

Gosh, my health is just fine.

You went to sleep this morning, didn't you?

You'll die if you don't sleep after drinking that much.

That's not a bad idea.

What is it this time?

Get this thug out from prison.

It looks like he got himself arrested for an assault case.

Thug?

Come on. If he's a thug, he has to stay in the slammer,

so he doesn't lose his edge.

You'll spoil him if you keep getting him out.

I'm thinking of building the tallest building...

at the most expensive area in Korea.

I can't let my company's reputation getting marred because of a thug.

I don't want to risk it.

He's the small fry. He just provides me labor.

The tallest building at the most expensive area in Korea?

There's a piece of land that I want too.

(Episode 2)

(True correction, bright future)

(Visiting Room 1, Visiting Room 2)

Name, Yang Chul Ki. Occupation, a gangster.

Seven previous convictions.

What an expert.

Are you planning on becoming a professional?

So some thugs got into a fight because of a holdout problem...

and you got arrested in the action.

You were arrested immediately because of your previous charges.

Gosh, your uniform fits you perfectly.

It's pretty much tailored for you.

Goodness, what an honor.

A star attorney came here.

Do you know me?

Then I won't beat around the bush.

I will make the story about how a poor thug...

got into this case by accident trying to make a living...

for his sick mother, siblings, wife, and even children.

My dear actor, you need to polish up your acting skills.

You jerk. Stop trampling all over me.

Man, you stupid thug...

don't get it because I skipped over the middle, right?

Why do you think...

someone is trying to get a useless thug like you...

out of this case...

by using an expensive attorney like me?

Because...

you're a rotten link.

It's because of the body that's connected to the rotten link.

I'm not trying to get you out.

- What did you say, jerk? - So you must...

do your best to act your part.

If there is trouble because of your acting,

then you will get dropped right away...

so that the body won't get in trouble.

Understood?

Okay.

Mr. Guk, about the indictment of the assembly's son...

You think your boss is a joke, don't you?

"Don't worry"?

You need to withdraw the indictment.

I don't think...

I can do that.

I wasn't going to do my best either.

But he used violence regularly,

and this was special violence because he broke a bottle and all.

I couldn't go without indicting him.

You said it yourself.

That no one said they were beaten up.

I looked into this,

and the victim was his driver.

He was afraid he'd get fired, so he couldn't make a statement.

I couldn't just overlook the truth. I'm a prosecutor.

Your father's hearing is coming up.

Let's not cause him any trouble.

My father will manage his own business.

Even if I turn this case inside out to reveal the whole truth about him,

it'll be stopped by those above anyway.

Even if I end up indicting the case,

the court will find him innocent.

But lately, I've been addicted to social media.

Seo Yeon Ah!

But a case that involves this kind of boys isn't exactly my style.

What do you want?

Wait, Mr. Lee!

- What? - This is bad.

The prosecutor for the trial was just reappointed.

Who is it?

Long time no see.

Hello.

What has gotten into you?

You're a star attorney who defends the top one percent of this country.

Why are you defending this useless thug?

Right.

Yang Chul Ki works for Bumjung Construction, right?

Have you been well?

We haven't met since our days in the Seoul Eastern District Office.

Thanks to you, I was transferred to a place with awfully fresh air.

You're the ace prosecutor of Seoul Central Prosecutors’ Office,

and I'm worried you might work too hard over some thug's case.

Chairman Song, it must be annoyed to have these thugs cause trouble.

Why don't you quit your business and start a law firm?

I heard you're the only way that Mr. Lee will take any cases.

You'll make much more than your current construction company.

I need to think carefully before I change my business.

I can just do something that'll make a lot of profit.

Figures. You're very good at business.

A company that only has capital of one million dollars...

manage to get construction projects worth 200 million dollars, right?

Let's go.

While we're at it, Mr. Lee.

You'll have to use the actual law to deal with this case...

instead of using your dirty tricks.

I'm not going to give up...

even if we both end up rolling around in a ditch.

You know me, don't you?

I never let anything go once I take a bite.

Goodbye.

She's still so cool.

Aren't you here to look at the trial?

I'm just here to visit the top floor.

(Customs)

Witness, you bought just 7m² of land...

in the redevelopment site of the defendant's company.

And you requested 30 percent...

of the construction profit for selling your land to them.

This is called a holdout technique.

- Is that correct? - It's not exactly a holdout.

Just answer with the facts.

Did you request to get 30 percent back or not?

I did. I did but...

Because of this wicked trick,

the construction plan began to get postponed.

Finally, the defendant, an employee of the company, stepped in.

Why?

Because many laborers' livelihood depended on this construction.

If the business gets canceled,

they have no choice but to live out on the streets.

Some of them need to look after their sick mother.

Some of them were a father who had to get his baby's formula.

The defendant was...

also a head of a household too.

He could not ignore those laborers and their livelihood.

Please take into consideration that he got involved...

in this assault case against his will.

That's all.

It was a dirty fight.

Who's going to take more?

A bloody survival game between thugs.

If Bumjung Construction actually cared about day laborers,

they wouldn't have created a labor team of thugs...

and gave them...

seven percents as the commission.

Your Honor.

You must know that Bumjung Construction is...

behind this assault case,

who created a team of thugs just for their own benefits.

The defendant, Yang Chul Ki, was the leader of that team.

He has seven previous convictions...

for assault, blackmailing, threat,

extortion, obstructing businesses, and et cetera.

He is also a key suspect of an unresolved murder case.

Goodness, a murder case.

I think we took a big blow.

If she suddenly took this case,

does this mean she did that on purpose?

Can you investigate...

what Yang Chul Ki's murder case is about?

Sure.

(Court)

Detective Kang, you investigated Yang Chul Ki's case?

I see.

You two have been working together ever since she was appointed.

He brought it to me two weeks ago.

It's a case that kept on troubling me...

as I was nearing my retirement,

so I began to investigate it again.

It definitely seems odd.

This is...

the unresolved case from seven years ago.

It seemed very odd.

(Ahyeon-dong Murder Case)

(2012, Ahyeon-dong Choi Soo Jeong Murder Case)

(Ju Hyeon: Take the package straight to the police, and don't be scared!)

She was a 20-year-old actress who had just made her debut.

Seeing how she was stabbed in her vital spot,

the killer seemed to be a professional.

But the murder weapon wasn't found,

and there were no traces of sexual assault.

Yang Chul Ki is the key suspect.

He was the only one who went to her place.

Her estimated time of death and his whereabouts overlap.

On top of that, his prints were found on her body.

But he was acquitted just like that.

Since the murder weapon wasn't found,

there's no proof of the murder.

As for the prints on her body,

they could've been easily explained since he was her manager.

The absence of his motive for murder...

must be a critical fact.

In one week, the police closed down this case.

But what's stranger is that as soon as the case was closed,

the CCTV footages and files related to the case...

were destroyed.

This was intentional.

He was put behind bars for a simple assault case,

and now, she wants to solve a cold case?

What?

That's just like her.

They could've just let me investigate it...

since I was going to retire soon anyway,

but strangely enough, they kept pressuring me to drop it.

I thought seeing a prosecutor would be better than a detective,

so I came to you.

A 20-year-old woman died,

but there was no motive for murder.

Seven years have passed,

but they still pressured you.

That means there's a mastermind behind Yang Chul Ki.

("7 Years' Worth of Ongoing Suspicions...")

(Regarding the Unresolved Ahyeon-dong Murder Case")

("Key Suspect Is an Employee at Bumjung Construction")

People talked about this in SNS for a long time.

Online newspaper companies like ours...

thrive on stimulating news.

There are rumors that the key suspect of that case...

is an employee at Bumjung Construction.

The deeper I dug, the more interesting it got.

One more thing.

While looking into the case, I found that.

That was interesting too.

I heard that many small online newspaper companies...

go under in a blink of an eye.

You're working so hard when it's so hot out.

Thanks to you, I'm working very hard.

I'll be seeing you often.

I didn't kill her!

Why are you all worked up?

Since I was her manager, I frequented her house.

When I went there, she was already dead.

She was already dead?

Yes. Do you think I'm insane?

Why would I report my own murder...

and let the CCTV camera record me on my way out?

The police interrogated me, and I was acquitted.

- Acquitted? - Exactly.

Who acquitted you?

What are you trying to do?

Nothing.

This has nothing to do with me.

I don't care if a thug like you killed someone.

How fascinating.

(Bumjung Construction)

(Bumjung Construction)

Woo Yong, that punk, Yang Chul Ki,

seems to be involved in a murder.

That's not related to this, right?

What if it is?

If it is, you shouldn't worry about that...

and focus on building the highest building in Korea.

It doesn't matter if he committed something worse...

because I'm going to get him out.

We wouldn't care even if he did commit that murder.

Will you be all right?

Prosecutor Seo won't be an easy match.

Don't be ridiculous.

What is this?

It's the lot you wanted.

Woo Yong.

I love that you compensate me so quickly.

What's this cake for?

You should visit him. It's his birthday today.

Ma'am.

While doing the legwork,

I stumbled across this.

- Who is this? - He's a delivery man.

He was at the crime scene during the estimated time of the crime.

Delivery. Are you in?

These are files related to the case.

They were mixed up elsewhere, so they weren't discarded.

(Lee Tae Ju)

(Cause of Death: DUI, Family: Lee Tae Kyung, brother)

Mr. Nam.

I have an awesome piece of land.

Want to see?

There are so many buildings in Gangnam.

Why did you ask for the land here?

Is this where you used to live?

It'd be nice...

if I can fix up this poor neighborhood.

Will this area get redeveloped?

Just bring the car around.

Car? My gosh, you've got a temper.

Why is he upset?

You are an old soul.

Do you like this song that much?

Tae Kyung.

JYP makes the best songs, you know.

You're making me sad

Please don't look at me like that

Are you happy now that you're alone, jerk?

I'm going to stop coming here now.

I'll never come back.

Take care.

(M)

Where are you, brother?

Right.

You know what?

I should buy a building here.

I'll decorate the place really nicely.

I'll be making a huge profit.

Right. Can you look into a yacht for me?

Something that starts with Royal.

You told me that those things make money these days.

You always make money without me.

Gosh, what a great view.

Woo Yong.

I'm going to continue living like this.

I'm going to...

have this lousy world at my feet.

I've decided to stop visiting that punk.

I'll put it behind me.

Seriously. I've done enough.

You know that, don't you?

Right?

I'm going to...

forget everything.

All of it.

Everyone in life...

vanishes after all.

Forget everything.

All you need to do is keep looking straight ahead, Tae Kyung.

(Date of Death: November 21, 2012, around 5:30am)

The delivery man...

died in a car accident the next day at dawn.

Is it possible...

that this is relevant to Yang Chul Ki's murder case?

Well, I've looked into it since that bothered me too.

Well, it was a DUI.

There was an apparent assailant.

The assailant legally paid for the crime.

And it's a closed case too.

(Choi Soo Jeong, belonged to Jang Entertainment)

(7 previous convictions, Yang Chul Ki)

(Prosecutor Office, Seo Yeon Ah, Guk Jin Tae, Park Hyo Lim)

I didn't kill her!

- Is that him? - Excuse me.

- How many times do I have to say? - Excuse me.

I didn't kill her, okay?

It's definitely him.

- Gosh, darn it! - What is he saying?

Sit down.

Do you want to be charged with obstruction of duties?

So why did you start with me?

If someone dies, am I always responsible?

This was an assault case!

Why are you questioning me about a murder case?

This is a violation of human rights. Don't you know that?

I don't, so give me a straight answer.

You met this delivery man on the day of her murder.

I have no idea, Prosecutor!

Do you know him?

Do you know this guy?

I'm asking you.

Do you know him, you jerk?

(A mysterious death of a delivery man)

(Lee Tae Kyung)

(Justice)

A delivery man who was at a murder scene...

died the next day in a car accident.

Are you sure this has nothing to do with you?

I heard a delivery man was here.

Can you check where he went?

Hey, isn't this Yang Chul Ki?

Please explain why the prosecutor in charge has changed.

This is outside pressure.

Do you think the organization is a joke?

Why are you trying to get Yang Chul Ki out?

Nothing will change.

Even if you find out more, the choice we made cannot change.

Do you want to know how your brother died?

You will have to get me out of here.

Defendant's attorney?

I will not make any counter-argument.
