So Lawyer Bong was hiding Lawyer Ha's mom behind their back?

How could he be so amazing?

I was so upset that Lawyer Ha's mother was going to die again.

Congratulations, Lawyer Ha!

Thanks, everyone for being so worried.

So now we have to act like your mother passed away.

Acting? We're good actors.

Unni, I'm so sorry about what happened to your mother!

Should we just forget about the law and beat up Cha Moon Sook?

Should I just grab her hair and drag her back here?

I guess I'm not that into plays.

Hey, hey. Stop acting silly and focus on the screen.

Since Nam Soon Ja was arrested, our first plan was a success.

It'd be too cruel to fan the flames if the house is already on fire.

Hyungnim, should we put an electric fan in her house?

How cruel!

I'm thinking of sending them a can of gasoline.

Now that Nam Soon Ja is down,

we can go ahead and attack Cha Moon Sook, right?

No. No. No.There're still some little guys to take care of first.

Hyungnim, If we kill the boss, it's game over, isn't it?

Even when you go to the bathroom for number 1,

if you can take care of number 2 as well, that'd be ideal.

Do you have to say stuff like that when I'm eating?

You can just eat dust.

When I was young, I used to go fishing with my uncle a lot.

And he used to say this to me all the time.

"Whenever you're trying to catch a big fish, use the small fish that you caught in advance for bait."

Are we trying to catch Cha Moon Sook using Nam Soon Ja?

Right.

Don't you know who I am?

No, I don't.

That's why you should just answer my question.

Let's try to be gentlemen here.

You have to at least give her the benefit of the doubt.

This is definitely a plot.

Aren't you supposed to be finding the truth as the police?

What the hell are you doing threatening an innocent person?

- Did you just say threatening? - You'll see!

I'm going to get out of here in an hour and get all of you fired.

I'm telling you, this is all someone's plot!

Have a seat, please.

Did you say 'plot?'

You're just like what Chief Prosecutor Jang said.

You're all stuck up and hotblooded,

and you bite people like a poisonous snake.

Do you know what kind of relationship I have with Chief Prosecutor Jang?

I don't care about that kind of stuff, Nam Soon Ja.

This is too unmistakable to call it a plot.

What, what, what is it?

Did you find evidence that I'm innocent?

Get rid of her.

Throw the body in the ocean so no one can find it.

You want me to kill her?

Yes.

Didn't you hear what I just said?

This, this, this is all a plot! I'm telling you!

It was this guy's trap!

This is the guy who killed her. I was just another victim of his crime!

Are you saying that this man is the criminal of this case?

This bastard!

He's trying to frame an innocent person!

Is that so?

What's his name then?

His name?

If you know him so well, you should know his name.

What are you asking his name for?

I want to make a phone call.

You're going to let her, right, Prosecutor?

Okay then.

We'll turn all the cameras off. Go ahead.

Your Honor.

It's me, Your Honor.

Yes.

I'm being interrogated by the prosecution right now.

Interrogation?

Haven't you seen it on the news?

That thug sabotaged us.

What are you talking about?

I'll explain everything once I get out.

I just need to know that thug's name first. I have to find him right away...

When did I ever remember the names of those people?

Pardon?

Talk with Lawyer Go In Doo for now. He'll take care of it.

I have to attend a trial now.

Your Honor. Your Honor.

Honey.

Honey!

Honey! Honey. Honey.

- Honey. - I took too long, didn't I?

I'm sorry.

Our family is back together now.

Mom. Dad.

This notebook you sent me,

has been very useful to me.

But you missed the ending.

What is it?

Cha Moon Sook's ending.

Okay. Keep working on it.

I'm curious about the ending too.

You took Jae Yi's mother from her twice.

I'll never forgive you.

That has nothing to do with me. And are you sure that

the masseuse was Ha Jae Yi's mom? Do you have any evidence?

I don't expect to get an answer from you anyway.

Something unexpected happened

since I sent you that notebook. I admit that much.

The fact that you got involved with Ha Jae Yi.

That's going to be the flaw in your revenge.

Don't you think it's actually the opposite?

It's going to be the biggest flaw in your plans from now on.

The fact that you couldn't predict me and Ha Jae Yi being together.

How's it going with Nam Soon Ja?

Her prosecutor is going to be Chun Seung Bum.

Nam Soon Ja's in trouble now.

Okay, thank you.

We got Nam Soon Ja, but we don't know what An Oh Ju's going to do.

We can't get caught in Cha Moon Sook's trap either.

What are you doing here?

I heard that you got a case that I'm interested in.

So, what do you want to know?

I heard that there's a video clip as evidence.

Did you by chance get it from Chief Prosecutor Jang?

Did you...

Did you have a bug now in the prosecutor's office or something?

I wouldn't do that.

Have you thought about where Chief Prosecutor Jang might have gotten it from?

- Are you saying that it was Judge Cha Moon Sook? - Yes.

Why did Judge Cha Moon Sook have crucial evidence to get rid of Nam Soon Ja?

So, are you saying that this has to do with Judge Cha Moon Sook as well?

I just want to tell you this one thing instead of answering that question.

You need to see through this case like an owl who sees through the darkness.

You don't think Cha Moon Sook will be in Nam Soon Ja's trial?

No.

She's probably choosing a judge that she can trust.

There's only one such person.

Nam Soon Ja's case was assigned to you, Judge Hong.

I heard that the defendant is someone very close to you.

Something like that shouldn't affect the verdict. Just do what you think is right.

Okay, Judge.

I never would've thought I'd see this sight.

A round of applause!

This isn't something to be applauded for. It's nothing.

I just got interested in the law all of a sudden.

- Is that so, Geum Gang? - Yes.

Hyungnim. I work at a law firm too,

and I should read the law book at least once.

You guys should study too! If you don't want to end up being locked up again.

Lawyer Ha. I have a question.

What's a good verdict to you?

I became curious while reading the law book. Very curious.

It's a good verdict if someone like you who has no knowledge of the law could understand.

And it's a bad verdict if someone with no knowledge of the law can't understand it. Don't you think?

She must really be a lawyer. How could you be so cool?

Unni, you're so well-spoken.

I was already sad about failing to pursue Lawyer Bong...

So you meant that there's no need to read this difficult book, right?

Thank god. I thought my head was getting numb.

Why don't you just use it as a pillow? That suits you better.

Today's the pretrial for Nam Soon Ja's case, right?

Yes.

It probably just started.

Good luck.

See you later.

We'll get going as well.

The bodyguards are coming!

See you later.

How about Prosecutor Chun Seung Bum?

It seems like we need to further investigate evidence item No. 4.

Do you think an investigation is really necessary?

Let's just have some testimony instead.

I think that should be enough.

Do you have anything else to say?

Let's call it a day then, Lawyer Go.

Of course, Your Honor.

Aigoo, look at the time.

Do I need a new watch or what?

It's been so off like this lately.

- You should get a new one then. - Anyway...

Is this really Ms. Nam?

I almost didn't recognize you.

What are you doing here, Bong Sang Pil?

Isn't this the first time just the two of us have talked like this.

In order to take my case, are you trying to act like a lawyer?

I'm not interested in defending you.

What are you here for then?

How about you? Why did you decide to meet me here?

Just get to the point quickly and leave.

I want to make a deal with you.

A deal? You and I?

I don't have anything to discuss with you.

I know that you've been in charge of Cha Moon Sook's borrowed-name accounts.

You're the guard of her safe.

I don't know where you heard that from,

but it has nothing to do with me.

Too bad.

That could've been the only thing that could save you from this swamp.

Do you think there's a lawyer who's more informed than me

about your situation in all of Gisung?

Cha Moon Sook was behind all of this.

Although you probably know that.

Don't you dare try to sabotage Judge Cha.

She's not that kind of a person.

Okay. Do as you wish.

Keep holding on to that frayed rope.

Oh, right.

Give a second thought to what happened to the great An Oh Ju.

Hyungnim, let's go. I found a motel.

I think it'll be safe since it's on the outskirts.

No Hyun Joo was the only card

who could attack both Bong Sang Pil and Cha Moon Sook.

Well, the card is already gone. What can you do?

Just forget about it, Hyungnim.

What?

You little bat. You're such a kid. Do you think you could forget, bastard?

No matter whether it's power or politics,

nothing is more honest than these guys.

Hyungnim.

As long as we have these guys,

there are tons of other countries we can live in. We can be more well off than Cha Moon Sook.

Should I find a boat somewhere?

You little bat.

Are you telling me to run away my whole life?

I would've gotten killed at the fish market already

if this was the end of me.

What's your plan then?

Well,

I need to put everything back to the way it was before.

- Go get a coke and cigarettes with this. - Okay.

Gisung's mayor An Oh Ju was impeached by a resolution of the disciplinary committee today

for damaging the reputation of the office

and not fulfilling his duty as mayor.

Therefore, An Oh Ju lost his position as mayor.

Gisung lost two mayors

from murder and recently lost another one

with dishonorable removal in the last three months...

Hello.

Lawyer Ha, long time no see.

I heard that you'll continue to stay in Gisung.

Yes.

I was assigned to an important trial.

Your Honor.

You killed my mom, didn't you?

You ruined my whole family.

You already forgot about the things I did in good faith for you.

Good faith?

- Shut up, you hypocrite. - Jae Yi.

Don't call my name.

Now I'm going risk everything I have to bring you down.

What's wrong with her?

- Hyungnim, by chance...

There's only one thing that could make Bong Sang Pil

not able to do anything.

Ha Jae Yi.

She's my last card.

If things go wrong, everything will be over, Hyungnim.

Whether I live for a day,

or just for a minute or even a second,

I have to be myself.

Like An Oh Ju, Kid.

What?

- Is that really true? - Yes.

My mother is alive.

That's a wonderful news...

Did Lawyer Bong Sang Pil do this too?

This is why I'm bringing this up.

Could you trust us and give us some time?

There's something we need to do.

You want me to pretend for a while that I don't know that your mom is alive?

Yes, Detective Kong.

Ladies and gentlemen, inmates and prison guards, I hope you have a good day.

Hey, Bong Sang Pil.

How have you been?

Hey, An Oh Ju.

You sound well.

Being a fugitive suits you.

Whatever. Why don't you have a look at this.

Isn't that your girl, whom you love dearly?

You, what are you trying to do right now?

Since you're busy hustling around everywhere,

I should be on the lookout for you.

You bastard.

You're the one who made me this way.

How could you call me that?

You'll have to fix things back the way they were for me as well.

Understand?

Hey, Lawyer Bong.

Jae Yi.

Is everything okay?

Huh? Yeah.

I'm with Detective Kong now.

I see.

Manager Tae's next to you, right?

Manager Tae? Yeah, why?

Nothing. See you back at the office.

Let's go.

What's going on, Mom?

Yeon Hee.

You're here as my daughter, right?

Yes.

Tell me.

I think you need to meet Judge Cha.

You want me to meet Judge Cha Moon Sook?

Send her my message, Yeon Hee.

Welcome, Prosecutor Kang.

Please help my mom.

Yes, I heard the news.

My Mom did everything that she could do for you her whole life.

- You know that. - Yes. It's a shame.

I also don't understand why she had to do something like that.

I would like you to do something for her.

There's nothing I can do right now.

I visited her in prison today.

She said that she has the ledger for the Cha Byung Ho Foundation

and she needs to give it to you.

Now that

your mom was put into a corner, Jeez...

she's threatening me indirectly.

How dare she do that to me.

Ms. Nam is making a bad decision on top of another bad decision.

I want you to persuade her.

If you want to be a great prosecutor,

you have to endure the pain of cutting off your own flesh.

Your Honor.

If you're here to hear my response, go tell her

to admit her crimes to and pay for them.

In the future it's going to be the biggest flaw of your plans.

The fact that you couldn't predict me and Ha Jae Yi being together.

Aigoo, Your Honor.

I'm so sorry for making you come to a place like this.

Your Honor. We need to find that thug as soon as possible.

I'm worried that you'll end up being hurt if we don't do anything.

I already commented on that.

Your Honor, you should help me prove my innocence.

This Nam Soon Ja has been taking care of everything for you.

Yes. What you just said is correct.

You did everything. I didn't do anything.

Pardon?

Aren't you afraid of me? I know everything you've done.

And the ledger for my father's foundation,

what do you think you could do with it?

It'll just add to your crime.

Your Honor.

Just rely on Lawyer Go In Doo. That's the only way.

Your Honor. Your Honor, Your Honor!

Yes, Gwang Su.

Hyungnim. I think Jeon Gal Hyungnim was ambushed.

- What? What do you mean ambushed? - I think they found out.

Okay, I'm on my way.

Hello.

- Are you ready? - Yes.

You're so cool as a cucumber in court,

but you become a hot-blooded man when you fight.

I'm not afraid of anything if I'm with you.

I don't want you guys to fall for me.

- I'm already taken. - Ah, what a shame.

You completely blend in with us.

Is that a compliment or an insult?

Listen carefully, Hyungnim is a crane among chickens!

Of course.

You move like a crane too!

It sounds like you're all planning to hide behind my back.

You'd better do your best.

Yes!

Let's go!

Okay!

True power means

the power that's used from the very top.

I'm not satisfied with

the power that was given by Dae Woong Hyungnim.

You son of a b****!

I'll remember those as your last words

since you used to be like my little brother.

Jeon Gal Hyungnim is too young to have last words yet.

Kwon Man Bae!

Bong Sang Pil, bastard.

Hey, bastard!

Go ahead!

- This bastard! - Put your head on the floor.

Kwon Man Bae.

Why did you betray Dae Woong Hyungnim?

Bong Sang Pil.

Do you think I'm your friend now?

You betrayed my uncle and the rest of the gang.

Why would I still call you Hyungnim? Don't you think?

I hate your stupid tongue.

I've always hated it since you became a lawyer.

I studied hard so I could fight with the law as a lawyer.

But guys like you distract me from my true calling.

It's so annoying.

We'll take care of the traitor in our way.

Hyungnim.

Gwang Su.

Let go!

Hyungnim.

What would you choose?

Do you want to be punished by Jeon Gal Hyungnim right now,

or do you want to be punished with the law by me?

There's a significant difference between those two.

I know you understand.

Would you mind if I take care of him?

Okay. I can't stop you if that's what you want to do.

Thank you, Jeon Gal Hyungnim.

Lawyer Bong.

Did something happen? Did you get hurt?

Yes. Jeon Gal Hyungnim was in danger.

I couldn't just do nothing.

Lawyer Bong.

Do you know what I think whenever I see you like this?

What? Is it because I fight and get hurt all the time?

Lawlessness.

It's really hard for people like us to fight with just the law.

Fighting against people with money and power, I mean.

We're still better off.

We have the title of lawyer.

That's why we have to fight well.

You're right.

I don't think the wound is so bad.

Why?

Did you win?

What do you think?

Well, since Bong Sang Pil showed up at today's fight

the result is obvious.

Do I have Ha Jae Yi's approval now?

I'm so flattered.

Here's your coffee.

Thank you, Ha Jae Yi.

It's not sweet but still flavorful.

By the way, did you look into Judge Hong?

He came to Gisung District Court because of Cha Moon Sook

and he's a messenger between her and the party delegate.

We'll get rid of Judge Hong and put Cha Moon Sook in his place for the trial.

- You want Cha Moon Sook for Nam Soon Ja's trial? - Yes.

I'm going to destroy her

while she's wearing the judge's robe.

You're going to give the most appropriate ending for her.

Yes.

Fine. I'll find out more about Judge Hong.

I'll find something useful if I follow where the money is.

You're the best as I expected.

Here, Fighting!

You did everything.

I didn't do anything.

Do you think there's a lawyer

who's more informed than me about your situation in all of Gisung?

I can't be the victim anymore.

I need that bastard.

Hello,

Hello, hello!

I need to make a phone call!

Aren't you going to sleep?

I need to call my daughter, Prosecutor Kang!

It's an emergency.

[ Lawless Law Firm ]

Aigoo.

What's Prosecutor Kang doing here early in the morning?

Didn't you already expect me to come here?

You're here to give me the answer from your mother.

She decided to accept the deal.

So, what did you bring?

This is the ledger she kept for the Cha Byung Ho Foundation.

How am I supposed to believe that this isn't going to hurt my mom?

If you don't want to believe, please don't, Prosecutor Kang.

I'll tell you this one thing.

I'm going to make her get the punishment that she deserves.

Not any more or less.

Is that so?

In deciding between a bad choice and a worse one, Mom chose the lesser of two evils.

Kang Yeon Hee.

Why was Kang Yeon Hee here?

Did you get an answer from Nam Soon Ja?

Yes.

She gave me the ledger.

The ledger?

Hyungnim.

You're back.

- Nam Soon Ja finally bit the bait. - The bait?

Yes! We got her!

This is the ledger for the Cha Byung Ho Foundation from Nam Soon Ja.

All the records of those dirty slush funds must be in there.

How do you know all that stuff?

Cha Moon Sook's name is not in this ledger.

Of course, there's no trace of Cha Moon Sook.

But there's something for certain.

I think I know what you mean.

She was sending a sign that the evidence of her corruption was in her possession.

She sent that message to you.

That's it.

That's why I have to start making a fair trade with Nam Soon Ja.

Did you send bodyguards to my house?

I couldn't just relax considering

the masseuse incident and that you're the candidate

for Chief Justice of the Supreme Court.

Thank you, Chief Prosecutor Jang.

But An Oh Ju's still a fugitive.

That's what I'm worried about.

You never know what that thug would do when he goes crazy.

Keep this in your house for protection.

I'll teach you how to use it.

We're all set.

Did you get my message?

I'm officially your defense lawyer starting from today.

Do you know what that signature means, Bong Sang Pil?

Of course.

Nam Soon Ja, who's been the gatekeeper to get to Cha Moon Sook for 30 years

is breaking up completely with Cha Moon Sook.

Yes, that's right.

Tell me what you're going to do for me now.

I'll make sure that you won't get punished for the crime you didn't commit.

Cha Moon Sook ordered you to do all these things, right?

That's right!

I didn't do anything. She made me do all this!

How could I make such decisions?

I'm just a housewife!

She signed faster than I expected.

Nam Soon Ja's thinking of me as insurance.

Do you think we could trust Nam Soon Ja?

Let's go.

Since we got the case,

we'll have to meet our dear enemy.

- Prosecutor Chun Seung Bum? - Mmhmm.

I've been curious about this for a while,

what kind of relationship do you have with Prosecutor Chun?

Relationship?

I'm sorry, Hyungnim.

All by yourself, you knocked seven people over and put them in the hospital?

But those guys attacked my brother first.

Prosecutor.

It's all my fault.

- He didn't do anything wrong. - Why aren't you being quiet?

I'm sorry, Hyungnim.

You guys are just kids.

All the brother talk is grossing me out.

You watched too many movies. What do you know about loyalty?

Do you mean you don't care if thugs get beaten up and end up dying?

- Sang Pil Hyungnim. - They almost killed my brother.

What do you think would've happened if I didn't show up?

It was self-defense! Self-defense!

Self-defense?

You think you could say that about anything?

Are you snowy white in innocence?

Hey.

I heard that you're the rising star of the Dae Woong Gang.

Why are you hitting my Hyungnim?

Prosecutor.

Isn't this what they call physical coercion?

You're interested in the law. A young thug.

My hyungnim is studying to be a lawyer.

What?

A lawyer?

You didn't know that there was a security camera there, did you?

Even if you fought without a weapon, it's still assault.

You had a baseball bat too.

Let's add the word 'aggravated' in front of assault.

I'll put the other guys in jail as soon as they get out of the hospital.

Otherwise, it won't be fair to you.

Okay. That sounds about right.

Dae Woong gang.

I can't wait for you to get caught.

There's nothing I won't do. I'm not scared of thugs.

Prosecutor Chun hasn't changed at all.

So that was the beginning of your relationship.

Now I need to fulfill my purpose of bringing him to Gisung.

Yes?

Good day, Prosecutor Chun.

Bong Sang Pil.

What do you want today?

I'm Lawyer Bong Sang Pil, who will be representing Nam Soon Ja starting today.

What?

You'll be surprised often from now on.

What exactly are you two guys?

As you already know, we're lawless lawyers.

I won't stand still if you're thinking of using me for revenge.

I know that your goal as a prosecutor is achieving justice.

Am I mistaken?

I don't think Bong Sang Pil is thinking of using anyone for his revenge.

I confirmed that myself.

I'm relieved that Lawyer Ha's saying that.

If you're here to get some information about Nam Soon Ja's case,

I've got nothing to tell you.

I don't think Lawyer Bong is trying to prove something to his opponent.

You're going to be seeing Bong Sang Pil in court now.

I'm here to tell you that you don't need to get nervous.

Kid. I don't let anything get in between me and my trials.

Let's find the truth in an honest way.

We're always moving forward and Prosecutor's always staying in the middle.

I like that.

I trust him for that reason, but I hated him when he was in your trial.

How do you think I felt? I still get upset about it.

Yes, Geum Ja.

Okay, I'll be right there.

Geum Ja?

Geum Ja's following Judge Hong.

Following?

It's about time for her to get used to our style.

Nice, Lawyer Ha.

Bong Sang Pil is starting to become a real lawyer now.

I've never seen you show your true feelings.

I thought he was filled with nothing but personal resentment.

It is resentment.

Both Bong Sang Pil and Ha Jae Yi

went through tragedy because of what happened 18 years ago.

Both of them?

Have a look.

[ Missing person ]

The day Bong Sang Pil's mother died is also the day Ha Jae Yi's mother went missing?

Yes.

Hey.

Honey.

What?

Are you really going to be like that?

You're telling me to move out now?

Oh my god, Daebak. What's this?

Is that your place?

Is it your apartment?

You said you're going to put it under my name!

Things have changed since then.

Situations can change, so can feelings.

You should've made me sign a contract if you were going to be so upset about it.

Seriously?

Oh my god!

I've been treating you too nicely. How dare you try to hit a judge?

That woman...

She's a potential threat to Judge Hong,

and a melting pot of information for us.

Things are working out so perfectly.

I heard that it's been less than a year since he got divorced.

He already had three girlfriends in six months.

What a talent.

How impressive.

They say you never know what men feel.

Unni.

Let's never change our minds.

Lawless!

Lawless.

Hyungnim, let's say 'lawless' too.

Hello.

[ Lawless Law Firm ]

I'll change all the tears you shed for Judge Hong into cash.

What did you say?

Forgiveness is a luxury for a judge like Judge Hong.

Get a big compensation and make him regret

whenever he pays you.

Excuse me.

My Unni is an extremely capable lawyer.

Aren't you angry?

You have to teach someone like that a lesson by a lawsuit.

Compensation! Get it!

Thank you.

You said you'll take this instead of the fee, right?

Yes. I'll take a look.

[ Registration certificate, owner: Hong Woo Seok ]

He received a bribe to fix the trial.

Yes.

This contains all the internal details of the transaction.

Thank you.

I'll make sure that you win the lawsuit.

Compensation! Get it!

Fighting!

♫ Haven't seen you in a while

♫ You came back after a long wait

♫ You're someone I've been waiting for forever

♫ You're someone I've been waiting for

♫ in my dreams

Mayor An, Mayor An!

Mayor An.

I'm sorry, okay?

♫ What did you do wrong?

Oh Ju, Hyung's sorry.

- ♫ Please answer me - I said I'm sorry!

♫ Please say something

Let's talk!

I said lets...

♫ What did you do wrong?

Hey, Go In Doo.

Hey.

Read this aloud.

What does it say?

Read it aloud!

Gisung's mayor...

An Oh Ju.

That's right.

Why don't you go

and tell Cha Moon Sook

that she's next.

Do you understand?

Gwan Dong.

Cheese.

Kimchi.

Good.

Bye.

Your Honor.

The hearing is coming up soon.

The representative is excited about it as well.

I took care of most things,

but there's one thing left.

I'm thinking of taking care of it

when Nam Soon Ja's trial is taken care of.

That means I'll have to do a good job taking care of this trial.

Just the way you like it.

I don't want you to feel pressured.

- Just do as you normally do. According to the law. - Yes.

By the way,

Your Honor.

Nam Soon Ja

got a new lawyer.

She did?

Why are you telling me this now?

Is it Bong Sang Pil?

Yes.

Your Honor.

This is what happens when you betray me.

[ Lawless Law Firm ]

Cha Moon Sook.

I never would've thought you'd come here by yourself.

According to you guys,

Nam Soon Ja instigated the murder.

And you want to defend her?

I don't understand that.

Just like how we'll never understand you,

you'll never understand our pain either.

Jae Yi's watching all this even though it kills her.

Do you know?

Are you saying Ha Jae Yi accepts the fact that you're defending her?

I told you, it's much more than just defending.

It's a judgment.

The judge in Gisaeng is me.

Don't you know that you're hitting a rock with eggs right now?

Do you think so?

Okay.

Just keep watching.

The rock is about to be split in half.

Okay.

You're going to end up losing

in front of me and the law.

[ The first hearing for false imprisonment and instigation of the murder of the Thai masseuse ]

Mom, are you okay?

The judge is entering the court.

All rise.

Please be seated.

I'll start the trial for false imprisonment

and instigation of the murder of a Thai masseuse.

The prosecution may make your statement.

I have something to say before the trial begins.

What is it?

I'd like to request a new judge for the trial.

I'm requesting a judicial recusal.

What are you doing right now?

Look, Lawyer Bong Sang Pil.

You've requested a judicial recusal in this court before, right?

Yes, that's correct.

I think like last time, that there's a possibility that the judge might give an unfair verdict.

If only I wasn't in court...

Let's hear the reason.

Let's hear it and see

if it's a valid reason.

I'll accept it

if you're willing to stake your license as a lawyer.

I think it's a lawyer's duty to make sure

that the defendant gets a fair trial.

Are you going to risk it or not?

Yes, I'll stake my license as a lawyer.

If I can't prove my point

I'll send in an application to remove my license as soon as the trial ends.

Your Honor.

What's wrong?

The thing is...

Lawyer Bong Sang Pil requested a judicial recusal.

Yeah?

Okay, you can leave.

Lawyer Bong Sang Pil.

Do you understand that what you're doing is an insult to the court of the Republic of Korea?

Of course.

I have a reason to question your qualifications.

May I prove it?

This trial is not about the judge.

But,

as a judge,

to protect my reputation,

I'll give you a chance.

You should know how lucky you are.

Thank you, Your Honor.

Let's hear it.

If it's a reasonable doubt.

Here.

Everyone. What you're seeing on this screen is the images of the most expensive vacation home in Gisung.

Apparently, the recent market price was three billion won.

You're the owner of the most expensive vacation home, aren't you, Your Honor?

Was this it?

What's wrong about a judge buying a country home in this day and age?

There's nothing wrong

with a judge purchasing a country home in this day and age.

But,

what if he purchased the country home that costs three billion won by paying just 100 million won?

What? Who the hell said that?

I mean, who said that?

There's clearly no evidence to prove this.

This is a payment contract for the country home that's supposed to cost 3 billion won at the current market price.

And it clearly says 100 million won right there.

If you look closely,

you can see the signature of Judge Hong Woo Seok as well.

Is that correct, Your Honor?

I think it's all done. Come and eat.

Lawyer Ha Jae Yi.

Did you say that you'll be my defense lawyer?

I want to make an offer that you'd be interested in.

Don't you need evidence to finish Cha Moon Sook?

What?

Why don't you come on your own?

Right now.

If you don't come, I'll go to see your father.

An Oh Ju.

Recently, there was a trial regarding 'emperor's labor,' (where VIP's get out of serving labor sentences)

in which the judgment fine was paid off at the rate of 500 million won a day.

For each night in prison, they were able to pay 500 million won,

and after spending 49 nights, they were able to get 24.5 billion won reduction of the penalty.

The person who received the special treatment was CEO Kang Il Ho from Gisung Construction Company.

The person who made the verdict was Judge Hong Woo Seok right here.

Bong Sang Pil!

Just be honest, you received a bribe and gave him a favorable verdict!

Do you think you can write your novel in this court?

I feel bad toward my client, but

no matter how successful of a lawyer I am,

I'm not wealthy enough to give that kind of present to the judge.

It's very likely that the verdict will be determined based on

his personal interest regardless of my ability.

That's why

I'm requesting a judicial recusal.

Your Honor, whom I deeply respect.

I think what the Defense just stated should be considered on the prosecution's side as well.

We also request a judicial recusal.

- I don't see Lawyer Ha. - She left earlier during the trial after receiving a phone call.

- Go find her. - Yes, Hyungnim.

- Call her. - Yes.

Lawyer Bong Sang Pil, do you think Nam Soon Ja is innocent?

I think you'll find out if you follow this trial.

You requested a judicial recusal. Do you have something you'd like to say to the Gisung District Court?

The court has to be the place that values fairness.

In order to regain the sense of justice and the reputation of the Gisung District Court,

I'd like the judge with the strongest sense of justice in Gisung

to take this trial.

Is there a judge that you have in mind?

How did you acquire the evidence of Judge Hong Woo Seok's corruption?

I'll answer that question later.

Where did it originate?

One more comment please!

- Where do you think Lawyer Ha went? - I wonder.

She's calling me.

See you back at the office.

- Okay. - Thanks guys.

Thank you.

Ha Jae Yi, where are you? Where did you go in the middle of the trial?

Bong Sang Pil.

You looked good on TV.

Where's Ha Jae Yi?

I called you to tell you that.

I warned you.

I said I'll forget about the law if you touch Ha Jae Yi.

Whatever. Come over.

An Oh Ju!

Come out, you bastard!

You're here, Bong Sang Pil.

Where are you hiding Ha Jae Yi?

Ha Jae Yi?

Are you curious? Huh?

Bastard. You have something you want to protect

and I have something I want to protect as well.

An Oh Ju, you're like a broken plate.

I don't have the energy to fix it.

I don't think anyone does. Just admit it.

Jeez.

Mr. Bong Sang Pil.

Do you really care that much about Ha Jae Yi?

Didn't you want to kill me in the end?

I came here personally like this to give you a chance.

This bastard has a lot of nerve, that's for sure.

He's trying to save his woman.

I'll do as you wish.

You can't compete with me.

Kneel down. I told you to kneel down.

I'll take care of Ha Jae Yi. Don't worry.

I'll count to three.

One.

Two.

Goodbye,

Bong Sang Pil.

[ Lawless Lawyer ]

Cha Moon Sook used Bong Sang Pil to get rid of you.

Prove Cha Moon Sook's crimes in court.

Let's do it in An Oh Ju's way.

One of us has to die at the end anyway.

That's what I'm talking about.

There's no turning back anymore.

Stop!
