(Episode 1)

You're here.

I came first today.

You owe me five minutes. All right? Okay?

Really?

Other than that, did you forget anything else?

I'm not sure. What could it be?

What could I have forgotten?

Ta-da!

Congratulations on our second anniversary!

Goodness, my baby.

Are you disappointed because you thought I forgot?

Is that it?

Congratulate me too. Come on.

Come on.

Don't you love it? Don't you?

Give me my present too.

Hey! What are you doing?

No, what do you think you're doing?

Do you have no idea what you did wrong?

What is it? What is it this time?

- What? - Why do you complain so much?

You turn me into the worst jerk whenever I'm with you.

I'm sick and tired of hearing you ask me what I did wrong this time.

I'm sick of it!

You really are a jerk, aren't you?

- What? - You should change your name...

from Lee Jae Sang...

to Lee...

Jae...

- "Sap". - Hey!

Even couples need essential manners.

- How dare you swear at me? - Well, it's a fact.

It's over.

Si On, where do you think you're going?

Hey, Si On!

Get back here.

Get back here while I ask nicely.

3, 2, 1.

Do you think I can't catch you?

Yes, I can't catch you. Seriously. Have you gone crazy?

Get back over here. We should talk about this.

Si On!

Since he can only be punished...

for embezzlement and dereliction of duty,

many have said that he can't...

technically be stopped until his sentence hearing.

Moving on.

The son of the owner of a mid-sized firm...

who committed a brutal assault...

caused public outrage...

when it was revealed that he told the police...

he wasn't aware of any wrongdoing.

Hongwoo Group is a company with six subsidiaries...

that surpassed 2.2 billion dollars in sales.

It is one of Segyeong's main business enterprises.

However, the owner family's conduct...

does not match the level of its high standard.

Seok Kyung Min, the son of the owner,

sexually harassed a female college friend last month.

He then assaulted a male student...

that tried to stop the assault...

and took a video of the beating.

Moreover, he posted the video on social media...

You all did good, guys.

That rich imbecile...

behaved like he was above us, didn't he?

There is also evidence of narcotics...

Why are you just standing there? Let's head to court.

Of course. We should go.

We should witness that jerk being put behind bars.

Si On, why do you seem so glum though?

I just have a bad feeling, that's all.

Why would you be when there's more than enough evidence?

It's because of that jerk, Lee Jae Sang.

(Hongwoo Food)

Lawyer Lee, just like you asked,

Chairman Seok made time especially for you today.

You know what this means, right?

I know he's my son and all,

but the whole family showing up in court...

means that the trial isn't exactly going in our favor.

That's exactly how one should think.

Any decent human being would.

I'm actually talking about the presiding judge.

Judge Go, who is leading your son's trial,

is a man of ambition.

I already relayed word...

that Hongwoo Group is looking for a partner.

You and your wife...

aren't going to court to show your son support.

You're auditioning...

the next possible legal advisor of Hongwoo Group.

Was there a formal apology?

- Any words? - What are your thoughts...

on the leaked video?

Please don't avoid the questions and give us an answer.

Do you or your son not feel guilty at all?

Please say a few words!

(Court of Korea)

(Counsel, Defendant)

(Prosecutor)

(Judge)

Mr. Oh Young Sik,

please tell us what happened that day.

Finals were right around the corner,

so I was on my way home from studying late at the library.

I was on my way to the back gate.

That's when I heard weird noises coming from behind the building.

Do not make noises.

What do you think you're doing?

What the...

Are you all right?

Get lost, you retard.

Are you drunk? Don't make things worse and go home.

Don't order me around, you loser!

What do you think you're looking at?

You lowlife!

He kicked me around for an hour.

If the security guard hadn't spotted us,

I might've died.

What happened afterwards was more humiliating though.

I begged on my knees for him to stop,

and he recorded it.

He then uploaded the video online.

I turn in Oh Young Sik's medical record...

as evidence.

(Photo evidence)

As you can see,

he suffered from internal ruptures, damage to his knee,

broken bones in his arm, and a concussion.

He has to be hospitalized for at least 15 weeks.

Also, Seok Kyung Min...

has been smuggling and abusing amphetamine,

a known stimulant drug.

Your Honor.

The defendant clearly has no moral boundaries.

I plead that you teach him how following the law...

is at least...

the bare minimum required.

Counsel may redirect.

Mr. Oh,

you refused the settlement offered by my client.

May I ask why?

The one who should apologize didn't even show up.

The head secretary did.

I was told that money was the apology...

and was accused of being a scam artist.

I see.

During those meetings though, someone accompanied you.

Who was it?

I asked you who it was.

It was my father.

Hongwoo Group offered a settlement of 50,000 dollars.

However, your father demanded 200,000 dollars.

My father only said it because he was angry!

Besides, it's what I want that matters.

Your father said it...

out of spite?

Darn.

This is the criminal record of Mr. Oh's father, Oh Bong Gu.

- Is he a conman? - He was caught on three charges...

of insurance fraud.

Objection!

His father's past criminal cases have nothing to do with this trial.

I beg to differ.

Oh Young Sik and Oh Bong Gu...

have been pressured to repay debts...

that were taken out to cover the mother's hospital expenses.

The amount? 200,000 dollars.

It's the exact amount Mr. Oh Bong Gu asked for.

Your Honor.

Counsel is misleading this court by blowing the facts out of proportion.

Your Honor.

This case could've just ended with a settlement.

I'm here to prove why it came to be on trial...

which is why I call In Na Rae to the stand.

(Witness)

You're the sole witness of this crime, right?

You were questioned by the police...

as the victim that was sexually assaulted.

Yes.

You refused to give a statement at first.

May I ask why?

Because...

It's because...

I wasn't sexually assaulted.

No way.

What?

You weren't assaulted?

Then what exactly happened that night?

Kyung Min and I...

were interested in one another.

After the group project,

we went out for drinks.

Then we...

We get the picture.

So you went from flirting to showing more of your affection,

is that right?

Yes.

Why did you tell the police that you were sexually assaulted though?

Well...

I was scared to be painted as a girl...

who throws herself at rich boys.

Also,

the detective kept hounding me for an answer,

so I told her what she wanted to hear.

You were coerced,

- is that it? - Yes.

The detective?

It's a lie.

He...

must've bribed the witness.

Don't be stupid.

Then, why did Oh Young Sik...

come between you and Mr. Seok Kyung Min?

Young Sik...

had a crush on me.

He kept texting me that he loved me.

That day too, when he saw me with Kyung Min,

he pushed Kyung Min aside out of jealousy...

and started the fight.

Young Sik pushed first?

Then the first one to assault the other...

was Oh Young Sik.

Your Honor.

Only the plaintiff's injured. The assault was one-sided.

Add to that,

the defendant posted a clip of the plaintiff begging for his life.

That's an incredibly cruel crime.

That was...

an accident that happened when...

Seok Kyung Min was suffering from the side effects of a drug.

What do you mean?

While he was studying abroad,

Seok Kyung Min was treated for depression and ADHD.

Adderall which contains amphetamine...

is a drug commonly prescribed in America.

It was brought into Korea via airmail...

from a friend to control his depression.

Unlike prosecutions suggests,

he had no intention of smuggling the drug into Korea.

When taken with alcohol,

Adderall can cause mania, excitement, and hallucinations.

In other words, Seok Kyung Min...

suffered from hallucinations caused by a drug...

and were incapable of rational thought.

Here,

I submit his doctor's letter.

(Judge)

Your Honor.

Whether Seok Kyung Min broke the criminal law...

or just failed to take medication responsibly,

I plead that you make a wise decision.

- No way. - Si On.

Si On.

This isn't right!

Si On rushed all over the place just to get this guy.

They assaulted each other?

That's enough.

Are you as distraught as the victim?

Our work being in vain is nothing.

Why is that nothing?

Thanks to his parents, Seok Kyung Min will...

be released after just paying a fine.

What is wrong with Lee Jae Sang?

Darn it.

The jerk.

Darn him.

- Hey. - Darn.

- Hey. - Si On!

Get her.

Si On!

Si On!

Well done.

You're pretty good.

- Join me for a meal soon. - Sure.

By the way,

Hongwoo Food' franchisees...

seem to be preparing to sue for damages.

We lined their bellies with fat...

and they got stupid.

They are out of their minds.

I'll call you.

Goodbye, ma'am.

Darn you. You fool.

You're such a slowpoke. Move faster.

I should just fire you.

Darn you.

Lee Jae Sap.

Aren't you ashamed to face the clear sky on a day like this?

Aren't you ashamed to face me?

You're a prosecutor because of me.

- What? - During training,

if I'd applied to be a prosecutor, you'd have become a lawyer.

You barely became a prosecutor because I didn't apply.

Let's say you're right.

The thing is,

when I see you, I wonder if lawyers are meant...

to con people, not defend the righteous.

Here's a riddle for you.

A judge, prosecutor, and detective...

all go into a bar.

Do you know who foots the bill?

The answer is...

the bar owner.

What are you saying?

I at least don't abuse my authority like you do.

That's why the public has slang nicknames...

for judges, prosecutors,

and policemen.

Is that so, you son of a witch?

Darn you.

- Darn it. - I'll kill you.

My gosh.

What are you doing?

What do you think?

This police officer's abusing her authority.

- Get up. Stand up! - Hey.

- Hey. - Get off him.

- Don't. - Let me go!

No, don't. Talk it out.

My gosh.

- Hey, that really hurts. - Does it?

Go on and stop her.

My arm!

Are you human?

Let go of me!

- Why are you so aggressive? - Let go!

How many times has it been?

How dare you attack him?

He had it coming.

Why do you always take him on whenever you meet in court?

He'll never sue me for assault.

He didn't last time or the time before.

That's why you're a coward.

You beat him up because you know he won't sue.

What else should I do?

He keeps letting the criminals off.

The pitcher who broke four of his wife's ribs.

The jerk got him off and the pitcher signed with the LA Dodgers.

He pitches great and still beats up his wife.

That's why you should've done better.

Us and you, all of us.

Hey. It's not the first time the powerful got themselves free.

Will you keep beating people up?

You might feel a little better,

but what about the bad reputation you give us?

I apologize.

What a fish brain.

Get lost. I don't want to see you.

[VIU Ver] MBC E01 'Welcome 2 Life' "Invicible Lawyer Lee Jae Sang" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-

- Good job. - Well done.

Goodbye.

(Forensics)

Hey. I went to the scene of a knifing.

Gosh, the blood could've filled a river.

The stench of it was just...

Let's go. I'll buy the drinks.

Forget it.

If I get drunk, I might cause a crime.

Gosh. Oh, well.

You two have it rough.

Min Hee.

I'm not sure anymore...

if I'm doing things right.

I think there are only two ways to live.

You be diligent and evil...

or just go with the flow.

At least you don't live like me.

Lieutenant Ra.

The prosecutor suggested I appeal,

but I just settled.

Thank you for everything.

I believe Madam Shin told you.

Hongwoo Food' restaurant franchisees' class action suit.

We'd like you to take the case, Lawyer Lee.

Many of his classmates...

work at the Fair Trade Commission.

He'll do fine.

Before that, there's a troublesome issue.

Madam Shin hired someone to assault...

the representative of the franchisees who are suing.

I understand.

Send over the details of whoever she hired.

I will. Goodbye then.

Ms. Yu.

Your sense of fashion amazes me each time.

Your bag too is just perfect.

Thank you. Goodbye.

How odd. Where did I see it before?

- What? - The accessory on her bag.

Is it from her boyfriend?

Whatever.

You did pretty well this time.

How did you pull off that tough one?

You're invincible.

That's more magic than it is me being invincible.

Ouch.

What happened to your face and wrist?

Was it Lieutenant Ra again?

Yes.

Last year, didn't she hit you with a judge's hammer?

- Well done. - You too, sir.

- See you back at the firm. - Okay.

- Good job. - Lee Jae Sap!

Mr. Lee! Mr. Lee!

That was three years ago.

Last year, she pulled my hair.

It's good to...

- Let go. Let go! - Come with me.

Hey. Let go of me!

- I warned you! - Just this once!

Not my hair!

- Let me off this once! - You jerk!

Sue her from now on.

You can't forgive her forever.

It's fine.

I can barely handle my case load already.

Figures. You'll become twice as busy from now on.

There's the illegal support case of Samgong Produce's convertible bonds.

And come tomorrow, you'll be made a partner.

- A partner? - Yes.

I got the confirmation from our investors to become the co-CEO.

Let's talk about your stock option tomorrow.

Mr. Kang.

You know...

my final goal is to be in politics.

You'll be in charge of this law firm from now on, Mr. Lee.

No, I mean,

CEO Lee Jae Sang.

Thank you.

I will do even better than what you expect of me.

Let's have a good run.

Si On.

Why are you wearing the traffic police uniform?

What do you think? She's getting disciplined.

We're under intensive watch for DUI cases.

They needed help, so she'll be working with them for two weeks.

And he added two weeks of night duties on top of that.

That's not very good.

Are you complaining about your duties?

I'd rather be on duty than in prison.

Hey, wait.

I can sense that you just can't let me go.

Clean your eyes first, you ugly kid.

I know that my discipline isn't the worst...

because you put in a good word to the chief for me.

I'm so sorry for all the trouble I cause.

Hey.

I didn't do this for you.

Violent Crimes Unit always needs more people.

If you get sacked, it'll cause more stress for us. Get it?

Yes, I know that very well.

It's time. Get lost.

Yes, sir.

Our beautiful land of Korea

With beautiful rose of Sharon

Excuse me. Drunk-driving control...

Oh, a cop?

You need to state your name and affiliation first.

I'm sorry. Lieutenant Ra Si On of Segyeong Police Station.

This is drunk-driving control. Please do cooperate.

Gosh, this will definitely take over 12 weeks to recover.

Why can't she keep it below five weeks?

The lady of this family is the catch. The biggest catch.

Who?

Oh, the lady of Hongwoo Group?

Yes.

Her son just got off of his trouble. Why is his mom doing this too?

Like mother, like son.

Anyway, do I have to drive to your appointment ceremony tomorrow?

Of course.

My wrist looks like this right now.

I'm a paralegal, not your driver.

Go ask your assailant to drive you.

- Where's your attacker now? - Hey, let me go.

She's right there.

What are you saying? Are you insane?

No, look. The police officer at the DUI checkpoint.

Isn't that Detective Ra?

What?

Do you think I'm a fraud?

Go ask your chief, okay?

Bring your chief. Let's ask him...

Sir, you are under arrest.

You're arrested for obstructing the drunk-driving control.

- You may consult an attorney... - I didn't do it.

- or choose to remain silent. - My gosh, I didn't do anything.

That hurts.

Hey, what are you doing? Let go of me. Let's talk.

(DUI Checkpoint)

Excuse...

Goodness, good work.

This is drunk-driving control. Please do cooperate.

- Thank you. - Hey...

Thank you for your cooperation.

No, hey. Hey, wait.

Hey.

- Hey, stop the car. - Now?

Hey, we have to park the cars that get caught over there.

Hey! Wait, I mean...

Excuse me!

What are you doing?

Hey!

What's wrong with my car?

Hey, Ji Ho.

Call my insurance company.

They'll be here in five minutes, right?

You have exactly five minutes, okay?

I'll call them in five minutes.

What are you doing?

I turned on my blinkers.

My car is obviously broken.

Hey, Lawyer Sap.

Get your car out of here while I'm still nice.

"Lawyer Sap"?

Don't you think you're a little too much?

What?

Do you see my hand? Do you?

I let you slide for assaulting me three times.

Shouldn't you at least apologize to me once?

It's not for an assault. It's for causing damage.

You aren't a human being.

- What? - Press charges.

I'll just pay the fine and let it go.

This is why you've been living like this for over a decade.

- What? - You're probably considered...

a troublemaker at work too.

Right? Everyone is annoyed by you, aren't they?

- Do you want to die? - If they think you're competent,

why do you think you're still a lieutenant?

I'm living a much better life than a jerk like you, so get lost.

I might seem like a jerk to you, but this is my job.

The Korean people have a right to be represented by a lawyer...

no matter how serious their crime is.

It's only human nature...

for my clients to defend themselves, and my job is to help them.

Gosh, man. It sounds like a dog just became a vegetarian.

- What? - It's complete nonsense, you idiot.

What? "Idiot"? Goodness, you're...

Do you remember?

The victim, Mr. Oh Young Sik was...

in the exact same situation as you were in 12 years ago.

Do you know what I regret the most in my life?

Do I have to know?

I shouldn't have worked so hard on the first case...

that I ever worked on.

I should have just ignored the first civilian...

whom I saved for the first time.

I still regret that to this day.

(12 years ago)

Clause 37, Article 2. Clause 37...

Help me, please.

- Help me! - What? What are you doing?

Even if you're in a hurry, you can't do this here.

Please help me.

Hey, come here, you brat. How dare you bite my lips?

That man over there. He tried to rape me!

It seems like you two are acquainted.

Please excuse me.

- No, wait! - Hey, stop.

Who are you? Get lost.

- You won't get lost? - My gosh!

What? Darn you.

You jerk!

What are you talking about?

I randomly assaulted a man who was just walking by?

Yes. That's what he claims.

Detective.

I am completely falsely blamed.

I was just helping a woman from almost getting raped by him.

Hey.

Where is this woman that you speak of?

Do you know her name, number, or where she lives?

We went to the crime scene, and we didn't find any weapon.

You should just settle the case.

What are you talking about?

I didn't do anything wrong. Why should I give him 10,000 dollars?

The victim has an orbital fracture and four of his molars are cracked.

He has to get four new teeth.

I told you many times that I was only defending myself!

I'm the victim!

And why aren't you looking for the woman with a tattoo here?

Why are you bullying the real victim?

Do you expect me to ask every single woman to pull down their shirts?

Do that!

Go tell all the women to pull down their shirts!

This is driving me insane.

What is this?

Wait, you only brought 5,000 dollars.

Hey, look.

This won't even pay for my implants.

I'm truly sorry.

Please settle the case with this.

This isn't good.

I'll make a call to the training institute.

I'll say a future lawyer beat up a man and wants to make a run.

- What's their number... - Wait.

Good sir, please stop here.

Let's settle the case here.

Make the call.

You can sue him for defamation.

She's a student on training from the National Police University.

She went to public baths day and night to find the witness.

You should thank her.

Excuse me.

What happened?

Thank you so much.

It went very well.

Really?

Thank you. Thank you so much.

What?

Sir, you are...

the hero of the first case I resolved.

It's a huge honor that I could help a man who is as righteous as you.

Oh, really?

People say you never forget your first case.

Sir, please become an awesome man in the field of law...

who fights the evil with your law books.

I'm so thrilled that I've just resolved my first case.

Oh, congratulations.

Yes! I resolved a case!

Yes! I can't believe I just resolved a case!

(Segyeong Police Station)

It feels as if there is a tiny splinter is stuck in my head.

Darn it.

(Episode 2 will air shortly.)

(Episode 2)

I heard you're on a roll now.

It's all thanks to you.

I haven't been...

thrilled like this since the time...

I proposed to my wife.

Looking great.

Okay, Lawyer Lee Jae Sang.

You have been made a partner of Yulgaek Law Firm...

and promoted as the co-CEO.

- Congratulations! - Congratulations!

Congratulations!

- Congratulations! - Thank you.

- Great work. - Great job.

(Traffic Police)

(Criminal Department)

- Excuse me. - May I help you?

Thank you.

Sir, calm down and tell me.

Why do you think something bad happened to your daughter?

I run a tiny corner shop.

I was about to close around 11:00pm,

and that's when she called me.

Dad, where are you? Are you at home?

I'm still at the shop.

I'm closing a bit late tonight.

Dad, I'm on my way home now.

I'm at the alleyway right by the hardware shop.

Dad, can you come and get me right now? Hurry.

Why? What's wrong, Yeong Ju?

I think someone is following me.

- What? - Today, I...

Hello?

Yeong Ju.

I left the shop open and ran out right away.

Yeong Ju!

But she already disappeared!

- Yeong Ju! - I went home,

and I called her friends too.

But I can't seem to find her.

This is all I found at the place where she went missing.

But...

this isn't enough to file her as missing.

You can report her for not returning home, then...

What if something bad happens to her?

But there isn't enough evidence to prove that she was abducted.

She may have hung up suddenly...

because her phone battery died.

And this button has nothing to do with this case, sir.

It does have a connection.

These alphabets are the initials of her boss.

Seok Myung Hwan.

Seok... Seok Myung Hwan?

Wait, the chairman of Hongwoo Group?

Yes, that man.

My daughter works in his secretary's office.

One day, she suddenly grew anxious and said something like this.

"I think I might die because of the chairman."

"I'm sure I'll die one day because of the chairman."

I figured that she was having a tough time at work...

because that family is known for overusing their power.

Something is...

definitely not right.

Well, I...

I ask of you, please. Just this once.

- Please help me out this once. - Jae Sang.

Just this once.

Will you investigate this just one more time?

Yes, Detective.

The case has been closed. What is it?

- What? - Let's make a toast.

- Cheers. - Congratulations.

Please excuse me.

Yes, this is Lee Jae Sang.

What is it at this late hour, Ms. Yu?

What?

You're here.

You're such a slowpoke.

Move faster. I should just fire you.

She claims that Chairman Seok has abducted his secretary?

I've never seen such an insane brat.

Ignore her.

I think it's overreacting for both you and me to step in.

There's a reason why I'm asking you to do this.

Back during my son's case,

do you know how that crazy brat tore up the entire company?

When my kid refused to speak, Detective Ra, that crazy brat,

barged into the shareholders' meeting too.

Is that really everything?

- What are you saying? - You can just ignore this,

but you're overreacting way too much.

Hey, what's with you too?

Overseas investors will begin their inspection starting tomorrow.

But that crazy brat, Detective Ra,

may cause a scene in front of the inspection team,

so I'm concerned to death about that.

And on top of that,

there's something that the investors can't find out.

So Detective Ra, you'd like to meet the chairman?

- Yes. - He's abroad on a business trip.

You mentioned that it happened at 11:00pm,

and he wasn't in Korea.

May I see a proof of reservation of his ticket out of Korea?

Do you have a warrant?

She's not even reported for an abduction, right?

Detective Ra, you are way ahead of yourself.

You brought Lawyer Sap right away...

for a lousy investigation like this?

You're way ahead of yourself too.

Darn it!

Hey, Chairman Seok...

isn't someone that people like you can meet.

What's with you people?

And what did you say? An abduction?

An abduction?

If he wanted to abduct anyone, do you think he'll do it himself?

We give people orders.

We don't carry them out,

you lowly lives, get it?

Then what did Ms. Seo mean by what she said?

She said she might die because of the chairman.

Hey.

Detective Ra.

You're unbelievably rude.

You do this every single time and make me want to kill you!

What do you think?

Did it just sound like...

I wanted to kill you?

Did you ask why we are overreacting to this?

Because Chairman Seok and Ms. Seo were...

having an affair.

What?

A history of text messages from Ms. Seo's company phone.

The messages she shared with the chairman...

look very loving and naughty, don't they?

- I can't believe this. - What I can't believe...

is what you are claiming, sir.

Why would he abduct his mistress that he slept with yesterday?

Doesn't that seem a bit odd?

In that case, you can confirm the truth for us without a burden.

Please call the chairman immediately.

You!

I can't understand why she said she might die because of him...

if she was his beloved mistress.

We've been patient with you until now.

If you want his statement, issue a subpoena first.

- You. - If you begin an investigation,

I will file for an objection to protest against that,

saying you are conducting an investigation as revenge...

for losing the trial against Mr. Seok Gyeong Min.

- What? - You do know that...

once your investigation is confirmed as a retaliation,

you will be tried...

for slandering and defamation.

(Hongwoo Food)

Detective.

This is our company's souvenir for all visitors to our headquarters.

I can't understand how she said she might die because of him...

if she was his beloved mistress.

It's me.

Can you check Chairman Seok's immigration record?

Right now. Yes.

What do you think you're doing?

You jerk.

You're an expert at being the worst, aren't you?

A retaliation, you say?

That's what you're accusing of on top of police coercion?

Hey.

Why are you mad at me for the IA investigation?

The detective kept hounding me for an answer,

so I told her what she wanted to hear.

Is this a threat?

You're telling me back off if I don't want to be fired.

It's too bad though...

because I don't intend to quit.

Let me ask you one thing.

Why are you worked up over a girl...

who just didn't come home for the night?

You'll be humiliated when she returns.

I'd rather be humiliated...

since the golden time for abduction cases is seven hours.

If she has truly been abducted,

then that only leaves us with four hours.

We'll be lucky if she's still alive.

This is all just a theory!

That's all we went on too when I saved you 12 years ago.

Just a theory.

Then...

you should've given up.

- What? - You're like...

a paranoid person who always holds onto the what-ifs.

It's how you can become a hero.

I hear they have a name for such people these days.

Right, the hero syndrome.

Darn, my back.

We had better not cross paths again...

or I'll make sure to break it next time.

What did I tell you about using violence?

Gosh, my back!

Darn!

My back...

Give me a pen.

- What? - Give me a pen!

- What are you saying? - Darn.

What are you doing?

These might not be Seok Myung Hwan's initials.

What are you saying?

Look at this pamphlet.

It's one about the subsidiaries of Hongwoo Group.

Hongwoo Security.

It could be the logo of this subsidiary.

If he wanted to abduct anyone, do you think he'll do it himself?

I heard a rumor...

of big companies setting up fake security companies...

so they can hire gangsters to do their dirty work.

Is Hongwoo Security one of them?

You have one wild imagination.

Jae Sang.

If you truly are a decent lawyer, you'll help me.

- What? - You said so yourself.

Protecting a client is a lawyer's main job.

Preventing your client from receiving a bigger sentence...

falls under that job description.

Inciting a murder or attempted murder,

which will receive a better sentence?

Prevent your client from committing solicitation of murder.

I'll find my victim and you can protect your client.

We'll both be doing our jobs!

Jae Sang.

Please.

Can you slow down a little?

Hey, Si On.

Slower! Slow down!

Slow down!

[VIU Ver] MBC E02 'Welcome 2 Life' "Secretary Gone Missing" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-

I could've crashed my car. Were you trying to kill me?

It's what I'd like to say to you people.

You're about to kill someone too.

What?

"HWS".

These are the initials of Hongwoo Security.

Did these people abduct Seo Yeong Ju?

Who are these people?

Do they operate on Chairman Seok's orders?

Where is Chairman Seok?

Chairman Seok...

is on a business trip abroad.

Seriously?

Will you only talk when one gets hurt?

I looked into it...

and Chairman Seok is in the US.

- His flight left at 21:30pm. - Hey!

She's telling the truth.

Chairman Seok isn't in Korea.

What?

It was Madam Shin, wasn't it?

While he was out of the country,

she wanted to get rid of the mistress, right?

I found it odd...

that the audacious lady would get involved in something like this.

- You see... - Wake up, Ms. Yu.

Your life will be ruined too once the truth comes out.

That...

Where is Seo Yeong Ju?

I don't know.

All I know is that the people of Hongwoo Security...

are former members of a big gang from Incheon.

There must be a place where they operate!

The company owns a warehouse in Seogyeong-dong.

It's an abandoned warehouse...

that hasn't yet been reported as closed.

Die!

Hi.

What?

What are you saying? An abduction?

It seems like she was abducted four hours ago.

Her life already hangs in the balance.

Please send reinforcements.

It's locked.

I don't see any movement inside.

What do you think you're doing?

Hold on.

What is it?

This...

This smell.

What smell?

It's gunpowder.

(Segyeong Police Station)

We failed to save your daughter.

I apologize on behalf of my team.

As soon as the autopsy's over,

we'll arrange the body so that...

it's fit for burial.

Mr. Ku.

What should I do from next year onward?

It looks like I'll have to...

host my own daughter's memorial service.

She should be the one honoring and remembering me.

It looks like...

I'll have to bow to her photo.

How am I to...

go on living like this?

Did you see the subpoena as a witness?

- Yes. - I gave a reason for your absence.

I also submitted your statement.

Why would the firm give my statement?

I said that you unwittingly ended up at the crime scene...

because Detective Ra hijacked your car.

- What? - Madam Shin's involvement...

in the crime is just Detective Ra's opinion.

Ms. Yu and I agreed that your opinion differs.

Read and memorize it.

What are you doing?

Are you going to make Si On look like a nutcase?

Why did you complicate things?

If you knew Madam Shin was involved, you should've talked to me first.

Why did you take her?

I complicated things?

- I did? - Get a grip.

You represent Hongwoo Group.

Do I need to remind you that you're sworn to secrecy?

Do you want to lose your license?

If you lose your mind again,

you'll end up fighting our law firm.

Will you go home?

Are you running away?

I'll wait for you in the car.

I guess. You'd have to run away.

Detectives will keep knocking.

- What do you want? - I have a question.

Do you still dream of failing the bar exam?

Why do you ask?

You must've studied so darn hard.

That's why you still have those dreams.

That's how precious your lawyer license is.

You'd do anything to protect it.

Seo Yeong Ju was shot by a hunting rifle.

She had three holes in her face.

It was so terrifying that...

we couldn't ask her father to confirm her identity.

Have you ever seen such a body before?

No wonder you threw up.

- Stop it. - The coroner said...

the estimated time of death is around 2:30am.

That means if you hadn't used the law to drag things on,

she could've survived.

Don't be silly.

You wouldn't have found her if not for me.

You realized when you were in the chairman's office...

that things were going wrong.

That's why you pulled Chairman Seok's departure records.

If you'd caught him in his office,

if you'd corrected things then,

Ms. Seo...

would have a smile on that pretty face.

- That's enough. - You never say this in court.

Because you must keep your precious lawyer license.

You must make more money.

Hey!

Hit me a few times and let it go like before.

Don't waste my time with such nonsense.

Beating only works on human beings.

Are you happy to make money...

on the price of a life?

It's Lee Jae Sang. Let's meet up.

The news reached the chairman in America.

We must sort it out before he returns.

Darn it.

That cunning fox of a witch ruined my whole life.

- Your life is ruined? - Mr. Lee.

Why did you mess it up so badly?

Is your brain made of soggy noodles?

Why did you take the crazy Detective Ra there?

I wanted to prevent...

my client from becoming an instigator of the murder.

Who instigated murder?

Someone else committed the killing.

- What? - So,

I talked it out with Hongwoo Security's CEO.

A subsidiary employee...

stalked Ms. Seo...

and then killed her. That will be our story.

Here are the details of the subsidiary employee.

Read that and come up with a likely scenario.

What?

If this doesn't work out,

my brother-in-law...

is a doctor at the cancer ward in Hankuk Hospital.

Let's say he has stage two cancer and get a stay of execution.

If he's to look like he has cancer,

how long must we starve him for?

Sort it out properly this time. Don't complicate things again.

Hey. What are you doing?

My gosh.

Why does everyone...

want me to stop complicating things?

Who is it that messed everything up?

What got into you?

Yes. You're right.

I did complicate things.

The law and institution are simple,

but I complicated things to get people like you off the hook.

What are you talking about?

What do you think?

I must correct things when I can.

Simply.

A subsidiary employee stalked Ms. Seo...

and then killed her. That will be our story.

What... Are you crazy?

What... This is... Have you lost your mind?

Mr. Lee, do you think I'll let you do this?

I can get your license revoked!

I can hold you down with lawsuits that'll last your lifetime!

Lady.

What? "Lady"?

Have you forgotten?

I'm Lee Jae Sap.

The mad lawyer.

Even without my license,

it's not illegal for me to defend myself.

I have the best lawyer ever.

Lee Jae Sap.

What? "Lee Jae Sap"?

You darn fool.

Let go of me.

When the mad lawyer isn't your representative...

but the opposing witness,

wait and see what happens then.

What?

I will...

take you down.

Hey, Mr. Lee.

He's crazy.

- Go to Segyeong Police Station. - Okay.

What? Not home?

Hey. Stop that lunatic right now.

Are you deaf?

(Lee Jae Sap)

- Hello? - Si On, it's me.

What is it?

I'm on my way to you right now.

I'll fix things.

What?

I thought I was living a good life,

but I was wrong.

Everything got tangled up like a ball of yarn.

So I need your help.

I can only do this with your help.

So...

So...

Hello?

Hello?

Hey! Hello?

Hey, Jae Sang!

Hello?

Yes, Jae Sang. You're...

Where are you? Where are you right now?

Lee Jae Sang!

Hello?

Go.

Lee Jae Sang!

The more you try to undo tangled yarn, it only gets worse.

Si On.

Am I too late?

Why am I in paradise?

Why does an angel...

look like that?

What?

Where am I?

You. It's you.

You're up.

What have you done to me?

What did I do?

Did...

Did you do that to me?

I was unable to move and resist, and even injured.

Did you violate me?

What are you saying? We can only punish female rapists...

when there are more than two women involved.

You can charge me for molestation, though.

But is there a precedent in Korea where a woman was...

punished for molestation in a married relationship?

"Married"? Who?

Honey, you need to stop joking around.

"Honey"? My gosh.

Hey, what's that?

What? Our wedding picture?

We got married?

(Welcome 2 Life)

What happened?

I must be dreaming.

What's with everyone? Why am I a prosecutor?

Ms. Seo Yeong Ju is alive?

Hey, Chairman Seok will leave the country in a few hours!

You darned lowly lives. How dare you tell me to come here?

A prosecutor, man.

If I'm dreaming this out of guilt, I'll make sure I stop this.

Tell everyone...

to gather round.
