Trying to destroy the case file?

Who are you?

Someone who'll get in trouble if it's destroyed.

Do you have to destroy it?

If I don't,

my mom will.

She won't let my brother go to prison.

If you do destroy the case file,

there will be another one with your crime written on it.

Do you think that's what your mom would want?

How about this?

You'll be someone who reads the case file.

As a judge just like me.

I'd like to see you now.

Look at you.

It looks better on you than on me.

You jerk!

You rapist jerk! Don't you dare touch my girl!

I'll smash in your thingie!

Stop it. Please, calm down.

You'll only aggravate him more.

- Your child isn't in there! - Hello, Se Ra.

Doesn't the internship start today?

Yes, it does. We're at the courthouse now,

but I think you should start tomorrow as planned.

I guess so.

I'll visit Professor Lee first and then call you.

He locked all the doors from inside.

Is it okay to give him everything he wants like this?

The chief justice will come down after talking to the prosecutors.

- Okay. - Please. You have to save...

Judge Lee. Okay?

If we bring in special forces now, the victim may be put in danger.

We have someone who studied hostage negotiations at Harvard.

He even took down a terrorist at Harvard. Judge Sah Eui Hyun.

He'll be here soon.

What's taking him so long?

I need to go in there and save her myself.

Here. Here. Hurry.

- Here. - I filled him in on the way here.

Look, look, look.

- Is Judge Lee the only hostage? - Yes.

You talked down a terrorist at Harvard,

so the chief justice asked that you show your skills here too.

Look, look, look. This is what Professor Yoon Myung Hee...

wrote about Kim Joo Hyung.

I'll give it a shot.

I'll help as well.

Didn't I see you in the Blue House security office?

Judge Sah. Please let me help.

Since the victim is a woman, I should be of help.

I don't know...

I can ask you one last time.

Will you take it off...

or burn it?

Take off your clothes.

I said to take it off,

Judge Lee Jung Joo.

Who are you? Who said you could come in?

Did you come to watch her die?

I'm Judge Sah Eui Hyun.

Sah Eui Hyun?

Wait. What... What did you say?

Take it off?

If you don't want to, then you'll have to burn it.

I'll have to burn it?

What about the poor kids who suffered because of this rat?

You'll be killing them twice.

You'll let this scumbag toy with the judges of Korea?

So take it off.

Hey! What are you trying to do?

Hey! What are you kids trying to do?

I'm trying to save Judge Lee.

Exactly.

If you want to save me, convince him.

How could you tell me to take it off?

He believes sexual assault was sex education.

I don't think I can convince him.

Ever since he was young, Kim Joo Hyung...

was assaulted...

sexually by his stepmother...

and was brainwashed into believing...

it was sex education.

He tried his best to forget the heinous experience...

and brainwashed himself that it was sex education.

- Right? - That wasn't in the case file.

Jang Soon Bok...

wrote a message in blood in the courtroom, from what I hear.

"My innocence is your guilt" or something like that.

What will you do about it?

There was nothing wrong...

with the verdict I gave in her trial.

The Appeals Court couldn't overturn my decision.

A retrial would be waste of time.

Mr. Assemblyman, you need to watch the news.

Shut it!

Drop the garbage.

Please, stop it.

You'll get me killed before you catch him.

Is that what you want?

Look. Look. He touched his glasses.

That's the sign. Send them in. Send them in.

Try some stupid trick like that again, and...

Fine. Okay. I'll leave.

As you said, Judge Lee, I don't want...

- Seriously. - to kill you.

Stop... Stop talking, and please stay out of it.

You said I was trying to kill you with my robe,

remember?

I said to please leave. You're not helping at all.

I won't tell you to be my woman,

so take it off.

Don't insist on keeping it on.

Trust me,

and take it off.

I'm sure you will.

Stop. Get lost right now...

before I kill her.

I'm leaving.

Wait. Why is he leaving?

You're right. Why is he leaving?

What happened? Darn it.

Why don't we send in special forces...

Judge Sah is headed here.

Darn it.

Jang Soon Bok attempts to commit suicide,

and now, Lee Jung Joo is taken hostage in the sacred courtroom.

They're tied together by the retrial.

There will be an uproar even if it's dismissed.

On top of that, the judge who heard Jang Soon Bok's initial trial...

is my personal attorney and political partner,

Sah Jung Do. You.

It's just a small nuisance.

Even if there was a problem with the investigation,

it isn't enough for a retrial.

Not unless someone else is the real killer.

And what if someone else is the real killer?

What do you mean?

I mean it must be dismissed very quietly.

That's more like it.

What's going on?

What? What did he...

Are you giving up?

I did all that I could.

We have to hope Judge Lee takes off her robe.

What?

Please take it off.

- Look! - Now.

Go in! Now!

They got him!

- Wow! - Wow! Did you see that?

That was awesome.

Are you okay?

Taking off your robe...

was brilliant.

I won't tell you to be my woman,

so take it off.

- Be careful. - Sorry.

Are you okay?

No.

That's right. How's Ms. Hwang?

She was treated in the infirmary and is fine now.

She's worried about you.

Can I have some gum?

Oh, right.

To you, chewing gum is like taking relaxing pills.

How could you not carry gum on you?

Yes, Head Chief.

Judge Lee is with me right now.

Chief Justice does?

Goodness, Judge Sah. I don't know how to repay for what you did.

- Sorry? - My gosh.

Well, I meant...

You're going in there, right?

Yes.

Then could you give this to Judge Lee, please? She's in there.

Judge Lee is my friend's daughter.

She's not my daughter, but I just treat her like my own daughter.

- Okay. - This isn't just gum.

She chews gum instead of taking relaxing pills.

Please give this to her. Please.

- Come this way. Please. - Okay.

Please give it to her. Please.

Jung Joo and he might make a good couple.

I wonder what kind of family he's from.

I'm very glad you didn't get hurt.

Are you sure you don't need to go to the hospital?

You're breaking out in a cold sweat.

I'm fine.

Judge Sah is here, sir.

Well done.

You saved Judge Lee's life. Why don't you sit next to her?

Are you feeling better now?

Her pulse is beating rapidly. I don't think she's calm.

How about letting her chew gum?

I get she's still shocked, but Chief Justice and the head chief are here.

Chewing gum in front of them is unheard of.

That's right. It wouldn't be polite.

If you don't let her to chew gum, she might get worked up...

and badmouth those people who didn't let her chew gum.

She'll say some unpleasant things...

for a very long time.

- You should chew gum. - You should chew gum.

Then I'll be the only one she'll badmouth about.

Here.

Chew well.

You need to calm down...

for Chief Justice and the head chief to talk to you at ease.

He's right. What you went through must be traumatizing,

We must be understanding of your needs.

Then I'll be understanding too.

Then when it's not juicy anymore, I'll spit it out.

By the way, our court will be fodder to everyone's gossips.

Including today's accident,

accidents regarding Jang Soon Bok and Kim Joo Hyung...

are far more provoking than any other scandals...

in politics or entertainment business.

Judge Lee, you are in the center of this heat.

I'd like to ask you to be more careful...

with your words and actions.

Please chew your gum.

I'll chew after listening to you with my utmost attention.

It's about Jang Soon Bok's retrial...

the 73rd Criminal Judicial Panel was in charge of.

I'm thinking of reappointing the case to another panel.

(Reappointment: reassigning an on-going case to another panel)

Reappointment?

Quit looking at me. You're making me feel uneasy.

Are you all right?

I was asked that question a thousand times, back to back today.

I'm not all right. I bit my tongue.

Why would you do that? Was that necessary?

Yes.

I said in vain that if I took my robe off again in court,

I'd be your woman.

This is why I need to watch what I say.

I thought I told you.

I told you to take if off because I wouldn't ask you to be mine.

Hearing that itself was humiliating.

But I thought...

that you and I worked well...

and were good at reading each other's minds.

That's true. Our teamwork was great.

Yes, we could read each other.

Shortening my life by 10 years became a hobby,

and escaping trouble by a close call, a special talent.

You know what? You saved me twice.

You and I must share some kind of a special bond. Don't you think so?

What more do you want from me?

Do you...

want to date me?

What are you saying? No way! I don't want to date you.

Me neither.

I'll forget about what you said.

Don't bite your tongue.

- Feel better. - How could I feel better?

Chief Justice said he was going to keep his eye on it,

so I was so eager to do a good job of the retrial.

In the end, they're considering to reassign the case.

They were just trying to get your opinion.

Even if they wanted my opinion, you know that they're pressuring me...

when it comes from influential people like them.

Besides, my principle is...

to give in easily when my superiors ask me to.

My goodness.

One more thing.

You deleted Jang Soon Bok's trial video.

Did you do it for your father? Not because...

our superiors asked you to do so?

I almost forgot to give you this.

I was too busy giving you the gum.

- What is this? - I guess I can't give in easily...

when our superiors give me an order.

It's the recovered video of her trial.

I'm so embarrassed.

I already gave it to you, but I'm already regretting it.

This won't help you at all with your principle...

of giving in easily to your superiors.

Judge Lee! Judge Sah!

I'd like to introduce some people. Hurry.

She's quite popular these days.

She just escaped from the brink of her death.

This is our court's troublemaker.

She's Judge Lee Jung Joo of Criminal Judicial Panel.

Thank you.

He is...

loved by the Harvard Law School very, very much.

He got Judge Lee out of the brink of death a while ago.

He's our court's dark horse of Individual Criminal Judges.

You're Judge Sah Eui Hyun, right?

I applied to be here in order to see you.

Please don't let my forwardness bother you.

You're bold.

They are from Korea University Law School.

- They're here for the training... - "Gong" stands for to be fair!

"Sa" stands for the honesty!

"Pan" stands for just rulings!

- We are Gongsapan. - We are Gongsapan.

I'm sorry.

Please continue your conversation. We'll be upstairs.

Let's go.

This always makes me uneasy.

Why? That was great.

Hold on.

Judge Lee, Judge Sah,

and Gongsapan...

Wait up!

You're from Gongsapan? What is that?

It's a research society of unjust rulings.

We discover misjudgments of the court.

Our purpose is...

to correct those misjudgments before it's too late.

I see. Misjudgments.

I thought you were referring to our chief judge.

It sounded similar to "Judge Oh Ji Rak".

Should I be laughing?

- But who is this baby? - I'm sorry.

The day care closed down without any notice.

So I had to bring her.

You're planning to get your training with the baby present?

I did think about leaving this baby somewhere,

but don't you think that's considered child abuse?

This is only for today.

- Where is my desk? - No, you're not getting this.

She is a pretty baby.

It's because she takes after me.

I don't see any resemblance.

She must take after her dad.

Have you seen her dad?

I wouldn't know since I've never seen her dad.

How could you not have seen her dad?

It's possible. I haven't.

Could you please hold her for a moment?

No, I can't. No.

I need to feed her. Let me pump my breast in the lactation room.

Hang on. No, wait.

Excuse me. Gongsapan. Lady.

Hey! What's wrong with her?

Did you just wake up?

Do you want to blow your nose? Peekaboo!

What are you doing?

I'm... It's...

It may be uncomfortable, but I hope we'll get along.

Same here. I plan to be humbled and learn a lot.

What a strong grip.

- Your desk is over there. - I see.

- This is insurance fraud. - I see.

Your Honor.

May I ask you for a favor?

(Speak nicely, act nicely)

Hey. Did you hear? They're inspecting the cells today.

Everyone's on red alert.

Someone from here went to court and took someone hostage with a knife.

He's a rapist. He took a young female judge hostage...

and tried to sexually assault her.

A young female judge?

Yes. He must have lost his mind.

How could he take a judge...

What was the judge's name?

It was Lee something.

That's right. Lee Jung Joo?

I know her well.

Judge Lee Jung Joo is a bit of a nitwit.

You know.

I know her very well. I like her, you see.

Should I tell you why I'm here?

To warn you.

Don't put a knife to her throat, okay?

That's a neck where I'm going to hang necklaces.

It's because...

I don't want to fight with trash like you over a woman.

You can breathe now, right?

Shall we chat a little now?

Where did you get the knife and the lighter?

(Lee Jung Joo)

What are these ugly related search terms?

How do I get rid of these?

Let's get rid of at least a few of them.

What if you end up in a black box or something?

A black box? I'm sure you mean a black list.

Mom.

I heard you were flipping out, screaming at them to save me.

How could I not lose it?

I was afraid they'd find out you were my daughter,

so I said you were my friend's daughter, okay?

You can just say I'm your daughter.

You're being so obvious about it anyway.

It's too humiliating to.

Who said to become famous for being an idiot judge?

Don't stay up all night. Sleep.

Mom!

Darn it.

I'm not asking you to find me not guilty.

Just... Just ask me. Please ask me...

if I killed him.

Please ask me if I really killed him.

Just once...

Just once. Please ask me just once.

Your Honor.

Your Honor!

(My innocence is your guilt.)

How about a late night drive?

Dance all night long

Dance, dance

This night

Life is fun

That feels better.

I felt like my head was about to explode earlier.

I couldn't sleep because I heard you grunting and pulling out your hair.

You're the best.

You know I'm counting the days...

until you return to the courthouse, right?

Sorry, but teaching is more fun than rendering decisions now.

I think our department got some interns.

Yes. Those interns are good.

I've been keeping my eye on them as well.

What? So this is how I get pushed aside.

Where are we going, anyway?

(Seoul Citizens Hospital)

Why are we at a hospital?

I'm fine now.

Jang Soon Bok is here.

But why are we...

I'd want to come if I were deciding...

whether or not to grant her petition,

since I could look at the evidence under authority of the court.

You see right through me.

But the higher-ups said to give it to another department.

So?

I'm contemplating.

If I refuse, I'll get on their bad side.

I'm already on their bad side already.

What are you afraid of?

(My mom, Jang Soon Bok, is innocent. She is not a murderer.)

I'll let you borrow this.

Just make sure to return it.

Do you know me?

My... My mom said...

you should help people in need.

Then the judges will help us as well.

(My mom, Jang Soon Bok, is innocent. She is not a murderer.)

You asked what I was afraid of, right?

That my choice will destroy my success.

Succeed. You should.

A judge succeeds by not making incorrect decisions.

By making sure no one suffers injustice.

(Episode 4 will air shortly.)

(Episode 4)

Judge Lee.

Would people recognize me?

- Everyone would. - Hello, Judge Lee.

Chief Judge Oh wants to...

discuss the reassignment...

of Jang Soon Bok and Kim Joo Hyung's case.

You became a victim of Kim Joo Hyung.

The rape case is an isolated case.

Since you're the recording judge,

I must respect your opinion.

I would like to finish the case since we were in charge.

Merging with other panels might be another way,

but I wouldn't want to impose pressure on other panels.

Let's do that.

Judge Jung, you'll stay in charge of Kim Joo Hyung's case.

The problem is the Jang Soon Bok's case.

What do you think? You're the recording judge.

This is what I think.

Our superiors are...

trying to lessen the burden on your shoulder, Judge Lee.

We should accept their advice by pretending it's not what we want.

Right now, you're garnering attention from the public,

and if the appeal for her retrial is rejected,

that would put our judicial panel on the spotlight.

- It's more than that. - I'd like to try it.

You want to try it?

It might be not rejected.

How could it not be? We don't have any definite evidence...

of her innocence that would revoke the original ruling.

This video...

and comatose Jang Soon Bok may serve...

as new pieces of evidence.

- Please take a look at it. - Judge Lee.

I'll tell you my opinion...

after I thoroughly review the case...

with the trainee-judges.

What's gotten into her?

That's not like her.

Assemblymen in Legislative and Judiciary Committee...

have been...

watching a soap opera...

that centers around a female judge.

The judge created a disturbance in front of the defendant.

What's even more is that...

the defendant held the judge hostage.

On top of that, a prisoner serving a life sentence attempted suicide...

and left a dying message.

Don't worry. That soap opera will end prematurely.

Since it'll end prematurely,

the soap opera should end with the fall of the main character.

I like tragedies more than...

sloppy happy endings.

I see, but I like dramas with happy endings more...

than sloppy tragedies.

That chief justice...

is shrewd as a snake.

I can't read him at all.

Judges are the best at keeping poker faces.

You know that judges must not wear thought on their sleeves.

Not everyone would be willing to be as friendly as I.

You're right. I'd know since I had a wife...

who was a judge for all those years.

But I still can't figure her out.

I think I saw her having lunch with Judge Lee and Han Joon...

at the cafeteria.

That's the picture I'm dreading the most.

How could someone like her...

be connected to my family?

It seemed Judge Lee and Professor Yoo were very close.

I heard that...

Lee Jung Joo is in charge of the appeal for the retrial.

That will be reassigned.

We asked her panel to have the case reappointed.

Why would you even ask her? That wasn't necessary.

Why are all the judges so cautious?

The subordinates must be obedient.

Goodness, Jin Myung.

In court, judges aren't to obey superiors' commands blindly.

Professor Yoo did her best to emphasize independence of judges.

What would she say if she heard you?

Anyway, make sure you rein in Lee Jung Joo.

Do you really believe there's a probable cause for retrial?

Now, I'd like to ask Jang Soon Bok if she really...

murdered her husband.

Even if I reject her appeal, I want to be more confident in my decision.

Retrials and appeals are different.

The law is more strict on rulings once they had been finalized.

I know that it must be accepted as an exception...

to avoid destroying the stability of the law.

I know that.

If retrials start providing fourth trials,

the three-trial system itself could totter.

I knew you were aware of it.

But...

my confidence in a guilty ruling is tottering by her claim...

risking her life for her innocence.

Do you think the stability of the law is worthy...

when the judge's confidence...

is wavering?

What are you doing?

- Hey. - Got it.

Get ready.

Kyung Ho, that's him.

Hey!

You scum!

I don't care what you've done.

But don't you dare even touch her.

Or I'll kill you myself.

Why? Are you going to move in on her?

Scumbag!

Prisoner 3067. What are you doing?

- Stop him! - Prisoner 3067!

Let go of me! Let me go!

Prisoner 3067, what are you doing?

- Let me go. - Stop it.

I'm going to kill that piece of trash!

- What's gotten into you? - Mark my words...

unless you want to get out of here dead!

You lost your status as a prisoner of good conduct...

with one fight.

Time goes very slow inside.

Let's settle this...

before he tries to sue you for assault.

I won't settle with that jerk.

- You should go. - Your younger sister...

is fine.

I'm interning at the court,

so I get to see her up close.

Is she really okay?

Yes.

Being held hostage didn't faze her. She's doing well.

You didn't have to go after him. Okay?

I'm glad she's okay.

I have no intention of settling. You should go.

Judge Lee Jung Joo.

Do you know what your sister kept even though Kim Joo Hyung...

held her hostage?

It's the substantive truth.

It's the objective truth in which...

no one should be or nothing should be distorted from the truth.

Do you even know what you're doing to your sister by punching him?

Kyung Ho, we need to start...

Young Hoon.

I didn't face any injustice.

My staying here is the truth.

I remember her son was suffering from a mental disability.

How do you remember that?

The man whom Jang Soon Book killed...

managed the cottage of Do Jin Myung.

He was annoyed that the husband died as soon as he hired him.

Did you know that she applied for a retrial?

I went to your office, but I was told you'd be here.

I wanted to return this to you.

So...

Are you saying Jang Soon Bok's husband, Seo Ki Woo,

has something to do with Assemblyman Do Jin Myung?

I don't know if it'll help, but I thought you should know.

Exactly, so why...

(Defendant: Choi Kyung Ho)

Why do you have this?

Oh, this?

- I... - I asked him.

He's someone I knew while I was a corrections officer.

My gut feeling tells me he is not a criminal.

I wanted Judge Sah...

to help me uncover the error in the trial.

Gut feeling? Whatever.

Are you insane?

Who?

You scared me.

You know what today is, right? Bring your robe.

We're here.

Your and my daughter will wear this all the way to the Supreme Court.

Put in a good word up there to pave the path for her.

Gosh. Why did Kyung Ho have to do that?

He can't even bow at his mom's memorial.

Mom.

You know how much your mom adored her son.

Imagine how hurt she is that he isn't here to bow to her.

Son?

My mom doesn't have a son.

I'm all she has.

Judge Lee?

- Hello. - Good morning.

(Thank you, Judge Lee)

They were thimbles.

They're so pretty.

Do you know who left this here?

Why did you...

Choi Kyung Ho worked hard to make them for you.

Choi Kyung Ho?

You know.

Kyung Ho hit Kim Joo Hyung.

He's a model inmate and is trying to get parole for good behavior.

Why do you think he did that?

It was because of you, Judge Lee.

Did you come to see me?

Darn it. Seriously.

Judge Lee is good at these things.

Come to think of it, I haven't seen her around lately.

She's very busy lately.

She refused to reassign the retrial request,

so she's on bad terms with Chief Oh.

She can't come here because of Chief Oh.

No one compares...

to Chief Choi when it comes to making you feel bad.

He lives up to his reputation.

Once I started nearing my due date, he showed how annoyed he was.

I just can't breathe because...

I see. I never knew.

But then again, he was annoyed even when I gave birth...

to his own child.

You win.

Chief Choi explicitly said that he hates working...

with female associate judges.

But both of his associate judges happen to be women.

I don't count.

The female associate judges that Chief Choi despises...

are married women whose bellies become big like this...

near their due dates.

Gosh. Is Judge Lee not coming today either?

She agreed to fill in for me once I have my baby.

- Judge Lee! - Oh, my.

Please tell me...

that I'm doing the right thing.

Judge Jung went to a trial for another department.

Pardon? Another department?

He's filling in just physically for an associate judge who's out.

You've never heard of the practice?

Of filling in?

(Judges fill in for absent judges.)

This is so hard. I was passing out in there.

That makes no sense.

How could a judge sit on the bench...

like a sack of potatoes without listening to the case?

Then should female judges not get maternity leave...

and preside over cases with their babies on their laps?

And what do you mean, a sack of potatoes?

We think about our cases during that time.

Many judges get involved because their name goes on the record.

Now, does it make sense?

Yes. You mean not everyone is like you.

Judge Lee asked me to bring this to you. It's our evaluation.

Okay, then. I'll go pump milk now.

It's impossible unless you have divine powers or something.

He hardly had any of his decisions overturned on appeal.

He's a real monster. No joke.

Yes, but even I had a trial that gave me a bad feeling.

Oh, my gosh. Chief.

It was a rape and murder trial 10 years ago...

that I happened to fill in on.

A rape and murder case from 10 years ago?

Choi Kyung Ho. That was his name.

We had no choice since we had his confession and DNA evidence.

But I wasn't convinced of his guilt without a reasonable doubt.

It's the one blemish on my record of cases with my name on them.

Why do you feel so bad about it?

Even when I think about it now...

The victim had her period,

but he didn't know.

Thanks.

Is Choi Kyung Ho...

the inmate that you considered a brother when you were a guard?

What time is the trial?

(Choi Kyung Ho's trial for assault)

Judge Sah.

How are you...

Is it because of the favor I had asked?

I sit in on other judges' cases at times.

You need to sit under the law...

to see what you should do above the law.

I see.

I think my baby's coming!

My baby...

I think she's going into labor.

- Is it time? - Yes.

I'll take her to the hospital, so go to your trial.

You go with them.

Ask Judge Lee Jung Joo to fill in for me.

Judge Lee.

Don't think about just sitting there mindlessly.

We will now hear the trial assigned to our panel,

case number 2017GO1243,

for defendant Choi Kyung Ho's charge of assault.

Please escort the defendant to his seat.

(Defendant: Choi Kyung Ho)

We will now...

sentence the accused rapist,

Choi Kyung Ho...

for the case number 2007GO114.

The court sentences the defendant to serve 20 years in prison.

You may apply for an appeal...

to Seoul High Court...

within a week starting today...

if you would like to protest the ruling.

My daughter only got to live 15 years.

The appeal must be submitted...

- to this court. - This isn't fair!

or the warden.

How could you do this?

- Who's going to pay for this? - I declare the end of our ruling.

Your Honor!

Choi Kyung Ho.

Let her go.

Why did you do it?

Why did you do it?

She's even younger than me!

How could you do this, you jerk?

Why did you do it?

Why?

Why did you kill her?

So you need to watch out for yourself.

Don't let someone like me end your life.

What?

How could you be my brother?

Pretend that...

you don't have a brother.

What about Mom?

What about her?

She cherished you like gold. What about her?

I didn't ask her to give birth to me.

She cherished me when she couldn't even provide for me.

That's really messed up.

You heard him, right?

I...

treated someone like him as my brother.

I even the stole case file for him.

I thought I'd do anything...

for my mom and brother...

even if it meant I'd end up in prison.

But he wants me to forget about him.

Before my mom goes into surgery,

she wants to hear his voice one more time.

So I was going to record his voice for her.

That jerk is a piece of trash.

Judge Yoo.

What am I going to do for my poor mother?

What should I do now?

Please?

Defendant, you may be seated.

Defendant.

Mr. Choi Kyung Ho.

Chief Choi.

I can't.

Your name will be in the record.

You must at least try to understand the case.

It's just that...

The defendant may keep his silence or refuse to answer questions...

if that is his wish.

The defendant may testify regarding evidence favoring himself.

Defendant, you didn't make a statement...

as to why you assaulted the victim.

Why did you assault him?

There must have been a reason for the assault.

I didn't like him.

Why?

He committed heinous acts to little children,

- but he wasn't shameful. - If that's how you feel,

why did you commit the same heinous act to a 15-year-old girl?

Kim Joo Hyung stopped at rape.

However, you went farther than rape and murdered the victim.

It's very despicable...

hearing that remark from you.

I didn't murder her.

What?

I didn't rape her either.

10 years ago, you admitted...

the crime in the very same seat.

You admitted you raped and murdered the victim, Kim Ga Young.

- I did. - Defendant.

Didn't you figure out that I was lying?

On that day, you sat in the seat where she's sitting.

You couldn't believe me...

because I didn't know the victim was on her period.

Didn't you doubt that I may not...

be the real murderer?

Defendant, what is it that you want to tell us?

The real murderer.

There's a real murderer?

Why are you telling me this?

Seo Gi Ho found out that...

Choi Kyung Ho isn't the real murderer.

The real murderer...

is in this very courtroom.

(Nothing to Lose / Judge vs. Judge)

That prosecutor told me he's going to make that lady judge his...

and put a necklace on her neck.

Tell him...

to stay away from Judge Lee.

I need to give this to Mom.

Why do you have this? Why?

Tell me who the real culprit is.

This is fun. Show me your cards.
