LAW SCHOOL

ALL NAMES, ORGANIZATIONS, CASES
AND INCIDENTS IN THIS DRAMA ARE FICTIOUS

-Hey.
-What's wrong?

It's Ye-seul. She's gone.

She probably didn't go too far.

Yeong-chang.

Yeong-chang!

Yeong-chang, no…

SOL A

Professor Yang.

Ye-seul.

We're behind the dorm
for Hankuk Law School.

We have a patient. Please hurry.

Sol, Yeong-chang…

We need two ambulances.

I'll take her and run.

Hankuk Hospital is closer that way.

Ye-seul. Wake up.

-Don't come.
-Why not?

Assemblyman Ko will be furious.

She may get arrested at the hospital.

Arrested?

Then detained too?

If they think
she destroyed evidence or fled.

He's in surgery.

Hello, sir.
It looks like his operation just began.

Where is that brat?

EMERGENCY CENTER

How dare…

How dare you.
How dare you do this to my son!

-She's a patient.
-Move aside!

I'm sorry.

Ms. Jeon, let me take you to the station.

May I go
after Yeong-chang's operation is over?

Shut up.

-Let's go.
-She's undergoing treatment.

She'll present herself afterwards.

"Treatment"? After what she did to my son?

I'm so sorry.

-Finish getting your IV.
-What are you doing?

She's not in a state to be questioned,
so she can't go.

What are you doing?

Phone, please.

It is December 5th, 9:40 p.m. now.

Ye-seul's bag is on the bed.
I'm filming this as is.

And over here, too.

And this.

And this. I'm filming these as is.

-You're the witness.
-What are you doing?

Proving that
she didn't try to destroy evidence.

You saw everything. We're the witnesses.

I'm not going to be a witness.

You have to do it.
Something happened to Ye-seul.

If you won't come with us,
we'll have to arrest you.

I'll go.

You aren't going anywhere.

If you're fine,
why weren't you arrested in the act?

You collapsed.

You have a few more tests.
Finish them first.

Professor.

Wasn't it embarrassing enough
to arrest and detain me?

You should get a grip.

She took a toll because of the shock,

so once she gets better,
I'll bring her to the station.

Move aside.

I'll arrest you for stopping me.

You deserve to be stopped
if you're abusing your power.

What?

She's a victim, too.

She was trying to stop your son
from spreading a spy cam video.

If she gets interrogated now,

there'll be a lot of damage to you, too.

You should hope
your son's operation goes well

while keeping his belongings together.

Let her get treated first.

I'm on my way to the hospital.

Please ask your wife for help.

And you must be studying.
You don't need to come, Seung-jae.

Okay. Goodbye.

-Professor!
-My gosh!

-Goodness!
-Oh, no.

-How many weeks?
-At 22 weeks, 3 days.

Get Dr. Lee now.

Dr. Lee's surgery is delayed.
If you're in a hurry…

Professor, may I take a look?

Your baby's heart is beating well,

and the baby is…

having lots of fun.

I see enough amniotic fluid,

and your cervical length is fine.

Your uterus looks fine, so…

So I won't have to worry?

You aren't bleeding,
but you're mid-pregnancy.

She'll suggest you stay for about a week.

Hey, looking cool.

I didn't know you were an OB-GYN doctor.

It seems like you'd be a great doctor.
Why did you go to law school?

Tell me about it.

Even your professor asked
why you quit and went to law school.

You're busy studying

that we only see each other
at times like these.

Your uterus seems to be fine.

You may bleed again
if you strain yourself or get stressed.

Please try to remain calm.

And just in case,

why don't you get hospitalized
for about a week and see how you do?

Are you his wife?

Yes.

I see, you're both OB-GYN doctors.

That's what I wanted, too.

But he quit then ran off to law school.

What are you doing? Get her admitted.

Okay.

And save.

Goodness. What is this?

What? Is it not working?

What's with you?

Wait, nothing is working.

Goodness. What am I going to do?

My gosh, come back. Goodness.

-Hey.
-What's wrong?

This file won't open,
then something must have happened.

It froze.

-May I take a look?
-Can you fix computers?

I didn't get a virus, did I?

I hope it's not ransomware.

I pressed that before.

Did you back up important files?

What? I'm going to lose everything?

I think it has a virus.

So? Do you think you can fix it?

I'll take a look, but if it doesn't work,
I'll take it to an expert.

You need to get some rest,
so you have to lie down.

I mean, if I can't get that fixed…

Seung-jae.

I need you to save me yet again.

Please fix that.

Okay.

YOUR COMPUTER IS SECURE

Professor.

2020 2ND SEMESTER CIVIL CODE FINAL

BASIC FACTS OF THE INCIDENT

I could just go alone.

You've got your Civil Code exam.

She's in my study group. I should go.

Aiming for all A pluses again?

Don't make it sound easy.

Do you know how hard it is?

What about me?
Don't you think things are hard for me?

Do you know how hard it is
to harvest eggs?

Fine. The one who's suffering today
is someone else.

FLU AND PNEUMONIA

I AGREE TO BE EXAMINED
FOR EVIDENCE OF SEXUAL ASSAULT…

I know it's hard, but…

It wasn't an assault.

We were in love.

It's sexual assault to film you secretly.

Please don't put it like that.

How…

How is spending time with someone I love…

I know it's tough,

but you have to look straight
at your situation.

The moment you were forced
to have intercourse

and began to hide signs of assault
behind your sunglasses,

you couldn't call it love.

I'm sorry.

I can't do it.

Professor,
how did Yeong-chang's surgery go…

The media hasn't caught on.

And his phone and laptop
are already taken care of.

But…

What? Examined for sexual assault?

Yes, sir.

Did the surgery go well?

We did our best,

but we'll have to wait and see
if he'll regain consciousness.

You'll have to see?

I'll tell you more details
at the director's office.

Give me an answer now!

The director wanted to see you upstairs.

Are you saying he may never wake up?

Yeong-chang…

Professor, I can't do this.

How can I do it after doing that to him?

It's all right.

If it's too hard to take,
you can cry, okay?

It's all right.

What about Ye-seul?

She's with me. You don't have to come.

I was on my way right now.

You still have tests.

Go study.

-But--
-You better not flunk because of my test.

Okay. Please look after Ye-seul, ma'am.

Yes, ma'am.

This darned test is keeping me away

from looking after a friend.

It'll be harder for her
if you flunk out because of her.

You just got back?

-Did you do it?
-What?

Right, yes. I did as you said.

But do you think

the worst could happen for Ko Yeong-chang?

Then Ye-seul might--

Just go study.

Your tests aren't over.

Those darned tests, tests, tests!

Darn it!

My gosh.

2020 2ND SEMESTER CIVIL CODE FINAL

ON JULY 1ST, 2016, PARTY B HANDED OVER…

No way. What happened here?

EXERCISE OF SUBROGATION RIGHTS

It's a win for us.

2020 2ND SEMESTER CIVIL CODE FINAL

THE DEBTOR MAY EXERCISE HIS RIGHT

I got chills as soon as I saw
the Exercise of Subrogation Rights.

I can't believe your study group
made a right prediction.

It's thanks to what Sol A found
on Korea Law Review.

She thought we'd get questioned on this
and picked it out.

She looked determined not to flunk out,
and she's on a roll.

My study group also went through
all of Prof. Kim's works

but couldn't catch it.

Hey, should I switch to your study group?

If I join in Ye-seul's place…

In Ye-seul's place?

I mean, I didn't mean in her place.

Well…

I mean, if you snatched her
before something like this happened--

Will you keep saying that?

Snatch who from what?

Why are you getting mad at me?

Pretty girls like Ye-seul
tend to fall more easily for bad guys.

Guys like you in the world of law

will get bashed
for lack of gender sensitivity.

What? Bashed? Are you done talking?

Hey, Min Bok-gi!

Speak.

I think he hacked into it.

After I saved my midterm draft
in the first semester,

my laptop suddenly broke down,

so Seung-jae fixed it.

If he saw the folder at that time,
I'm sure he would've been tempted.

The vice dean also asked him
to fix his laptop

after he heard that Seung-jae fixed mine.

I never asked him,
so he would've sneaked in here.

Then in the first semester--

I got a new one in the second semester.

He wanted to hack into the new one,

so that's why
he came to this room secretly?

Seung-jae, what happened to you that day?

It's your fault.

I'm sorry.

Something came up at home.
Please excuse me.

He was flustered at my question,

then he said it was my fault.

I gave him the idea
to hack into these computers.

That's how he got all A pluses?

Is this just speculation?

I wouldn't say it's just that.

I looked up
Seung-jae's midterm answer sheet again.

It's almost perfect,

except for one provision he got wrong.

And I also put the same wrong provision

on the answer sheet I made.

ANSWER SHEET

And this is?

Maybe it means his head went blank, too.

Goodness, that jerk.

I'm just frustrated.

He's a smart and good kid.

Hacking is an awful crime.

I know that, too.

If only I didn't let him see my laptop…

Well, anyway,

even if Seung-jae was here that day,

there's no reason to prove the alibi
at this point in time, right?

He didn't die right after he got drugged.

He died after some time passed.

Their argument is you gave him meth
and came back to the office.

Wouldn't it be easier to prove

that you gave him sugar, not drugs?

He can do that.

2:25 P.M., OCTOBER 5, 2020
THE DAY OF THE INCIDENT

I saw sugar there
and put it in your coffee.

But you never know,
so you should see a doctor.

Hypoglycemia can be dangerous.

-I'll see him.
-No, I will.

I'll give him a chance to come clean

and prove your alibi.

Can you do it?

He has the smoking gun
that can prove your innocence at once.

If he spills it, he'll die,

but if he doesn't, you will.

It must be killing him.

All right, fine. I'll do it.

I will.

PROFESSOR YANG JONG-HOON

Professor.

I'm here about Dan
now that my tests are over.

You'll find out at the trial tomorrow.

At your trial tomorrow?

Yes.

Isn't this funny?

This mock court should be a sacred place,

but it's made with dirty money

from a criminal who killed someone
by accident or on purpose,

be it a bribe or a gift.

What do you think

Professor Seo regrets the most
after his death?

Hitting that child was just an accident.

The moment he ran off
and tried to cover it up,

he fell into a trap
he couldn't escape from.

It was too late to take responsibility.

That's what he'd regret the most.

I hope your empty answer sheet

doesn't mean you give up

but a way you displayed courage.

I'll see you in court.

PROFESSOR YANG JONG-HOON'S FOURTH TRIAL

Jeon Ye-seul,
a witness from our previous trial,

is now indicted for causing
serious injury on her boyfriend.

Her testimony cannot be trusted.

Although Ms. Jeon
witnessed the murder scene,

she couldn't tell
because the defendant threatened her.

Then her boyfriend convinced her
to come to me to state the truth.

I can't believe he's going that far.
He should write a novel.

As soon as her relationship fell apart,

she changed her statement

then dared to frame him for filming her
against her will.

Objection!

We do not know the fact of the matter--

Her trial will reveal
that everything I just said is true.

Please consider that,

and I'd like to request

that you put off the trustworthiness
of her testimony until her trial is over.

I'd like to turn in
the arraignment of her charges

on injuring a person.

JUDGE

Attorney, will you agree
to have this arraignment as evidence?

If he refuses,
the prosecutor might summon Ye-seul again.

The judge might do that directly
with his power.

No way.

Her life is already tough.

It'd be too cruel
to have her on the stand again.

We do not accept.

I'd like to have
Ms. Jeon Ye-seul as a witness again.

Request accepted.

If the judge agreed,

does it mean he's suspicious
of the validity of her testimony?

The prosecutor's tactic worked.

He's trying to destroy the validity

of the testimonies
that benefit Professor Yang.

SEOUL CENTRAL DISTRICT COURT

This is an airplane ticket to Boston

dated the same day
the defendant was arrested.

It's not a round-trip ticket but one way.

The prosecution points to this

and argues
the defendant was trying to flee

after he murdered Mr. Seo Byung-ju.

Defendant. Why were you headed to Boston?

To find someone.

I bought it one-way

because the date of my return

depended on whether
I can find the person or not.

Who were you trying to find?

Kang Dan.

How dare he try to bait me.

What did you mean by that bait?

Kang Dan.

"Kang Dan"?

Who is Kang Dan?

-That is unrelated to this trial.
-Unrelated?

In that case,

do you admit

this airplane ticket cannot be used
as evidence to prove his charges?

She was a part of the campaign
for Assemblyman Ko Hyeong-su.

She became a whistle-blower of his camp
over spreading fake news of his opponent

then suddenly disappeared.

-What?
-Disappeared?

Your Honor.

Defendant, refrain from stating
unrelated information.

Delete that.

Please give him restrictions

on spreading false information
in front of media personnel.

That's a problem of defamation
for the said man,

but I do not believe
we must put him on restriction here.

It's not false information.

A mysterious disappearance
after whistle-blowing?

She dropped the charges herself
then flew over to the U.S.

-What?
-Wait.

How do you know that?

I heard it from Prosecutor Seo Byung-ju.

-Seo Byung-ju?
-He heard it from him?

-What's going on now?
-From Seo Byung-ju?

Ko Hyeong-su.

KO HYEONG-SU'S VIOLATION
OF THE ELECTION ACT FROM A WHISTLE-BLOWER

NO RESULTS

I'm not sure
if I could send this letter to you,

but I still wanted to apologize.

Prosecutor Yang,

I promised
to never compromise with injustice,

but I'm sorry I didn't hold to my words.

I ended up kneeling down
before filthy money.

Please do not forgive my betrayal,

stay true to your values,

and make sure
you get Ko Hyeong-su punished.

She knelt down before filthy money?

Why are you here?

I saw the view on your plagiarism.

I didn't plagiarize.

But Prof. Yang won't believe it.

So?

Do you want to believe
Prof. Yang is the culprit?

Is that why you said
you didn't see the sugar packet?

Then why are you so sure
that Prof. Yang didn't do it?

I was with him.

Let's give you the benefit of doubt

and say it was sugar, not methamphetamine.

Then you're saying

you left the scene right away
as soon as Seo came back to himself?

I want to be left alone.

Please leave.

However, both Kang Sol B and Seo Ji-ho
had never seen the sugar packet

although they came in after you.

Seo Ji-ho said
the victim was intoxicated on drugs.

Kang Sol B said--

We refused to have Kang Sol B's testimony,
so you cannot leak that out.

You can summon her and ask her yourself.

I didn't feel the need to do that,

but if you wanted to prove your innocence,

shouldn't you have her stand here

to confirm what she said
during the questioning?

Why didn't you summon her as a witness?

According to what you said,
you should beg to have her here.

She's here in court.

You should request
to have her as a witness.

A WITNESS CAN BE SUMMONED ON THE SPOT

I'm giving you this big chance.
Why won't you do it?

Kang Sol B's testimony will confirm
what he said isn't true.

It'll only confirm the fact that
the defendant is the real culprit.

Hey, what brings you here now?

I had a question for you. Let's go inside.

Hey, what's with you?

I have to hand these out.
I'm running late.

It's about Dan.

Did something happen between her
and Byeol's dad before she--

Stop!

She's not our family.

Mom, tell me.

Did you know
she was in an assemblyman's camp?

I don't know anything.

Why aren't you at school studying?
Don't say a thing on ancient history.

Don't come home
if you'll bring this up again.

I'm a busy woman, you know. Goodness.

FILES

PHOTOS FROM MY PHONE

On the day of the incident,

why weren't you there
at the mock trial class?

That morning,

I was emailed the video
of the Jurae-dong hit-and-run incident.

I was on the scene at Jurae-dong
to check the facts.

You returned to school at about 12:30 p.m.

Until that moment,

his anklet still had power,
so we could trace his whereabouts.

If you were in school,

why weren't you at the mock trial class?

Because of the shock.

And you even forgot
your duty as a professor?

Because you didn't know what you would do
if you saw the victim?

-He's leading the defendant!
-Sustained.

WITNESS

But in the end,

you went over to see the victim
after getting some coffee for him.

I wanted to make sure…

Thanks.

by asking him in person.

The Jurae-dong hit-and-run case.

It was you?

Let's take a 30-minute break.

Yes.

It was me.

Why did you put in that little?

Pour everything in.

You killed a child
but you don't want to die,

yet you're tormented
to shamelessly live on?

You're right.

I can't do this anymore.

When you saw him,

did you become furious?

Do you think
I got furious and killed him there?

If I wanted to,

I would've left him to die
from hypoglycemic shock.

I see. So there wouldn't have been
a need to give him sugar?

What if he didn't have hypoglycemia
to begin with?

-What is he suggesting?
-So what if he didn't?

-Then what will happen?
-What now?

NOTARIZED DOCUMENT

AGREEMENT

This is a glucometer,
which the victim always used.

And he always kept a record
of his glucose level.

Let's look at the glucose level

tested at 12:30 p.m.
on the day of the incident.

It's at 227.

This is hyperglycemic.

It wasn't previously on the list.

I had thought I wouldn't need this
to prove him guilty.

I'll turn it in as new evidence.

It's cheating to turn it in like this.

There's nothing to discuss.

If it's cheating,
the judge won't have to take it.

Well, you know…

Please do not accept it as evidence.

You must present that

the prosecutor's petty trick
cannot fool this court.

If you don't,
it'll be taken for the next one.

If your verdict gets overturned,
it'll have an impact on the judges.

Defendant.

So I understand that it's not easy.

-That's it.
-I see.

-That's tough.
-Very tricky.

Order!

I will accept it.

We'll put the questioning to a halt

and inspect the evidence.

Defense counsel, do you agree?

No, I do not.

Then I'd like to have the record

of the glucose level inspected.

Accepted.

Things were already unfavorable.

Why did he get on the judge's nerve?

His glucose level was 227
when it was taken at 12:30 p.m.

The possibility that 227
will turn into hypoglycemia at 14:55 is

nonexistent, unless the victim was
overdosed with insulin during that time.

WITNESS

-Isn't that so?
-Objection!

We do not know if this was
the victim's blood--

We already confirmed that it's his blood
through these bloody strips

from the trash can on the crime scene.

I have the NFS report that proves
the blood left here

belonged to the victim.

-How can this be?
-What?

It's game over.

-What's going to happen?
-It's now over.

He won't be able to get out.

YOU HAVE 2 MISSED CALLS

COURT

CALLS

JU-YEONG

I was about to call you.

-Ju-yeong.
-Can you come to the hospital now?

I can't do that now. I'm…

You need to come see me first.
Come quickly.

I told you it's not late yet.

I believe you have the courage.

HANKUK UNIV. HOSPITAL

See you in court.

PROF. KIM EUN-SUK

It's not too late, Seung-jae.
I'm waiting for you.

-You're here.
-Hey.

-This is…
-It's awesome!

-That's our baby.
-It was a success?

You looked really busy,

so I didn't mention it
until my blood level went up and up

and I began to see the fetus.

This time,
the sperm was in good condition,

and the fertilized egg
was implanted smoothly.

I did have a good feeling about it.

Why did you take this off?

Don't you ever take your ring off again.

It's now a sign that shows
you're this little one's dad.

I won't be hard on you
for going to law school now.

So, please study harder

for our baby's sake.

Get lost.

-Yeong-chang.
-"Yeong-chang"?

Go call Han Joon-hwi by his name.

I heard you weren't arrested
thanks to him.

I'm so sorry.

You're sorry?

You made me like this,
and you're sorry now?

Did he tell you to come see me?

Did he tell you to cry me a river
and beg me to settle?

It must be really tough.

I heard the news.

That he woke up, but one side of his body
is still paralyzed.

He could get better
if he continues to get treated.

Don't be hard on yourself.

I try not to.

But it feels like my fault.

How could this happen to you?

Don't I seem pathetic?

I thought it was

very admirable of you.

Bearing witness at the trial.

I couldn't have done that.

I thought I couldn't do it either.

When I saw Prof. Yang
sitting there as a defendant,

I realized how much weight
something I say could hold.

I didn't know when I read it on books,

but once I stood there,

I realized what this law we study

actually meant.

Then things happened.

Goodbye, then.

Please don't tell anyone
in our study group that you saw me.

-Ye-seul.
-I doubt

I'll return to school.

I don't want them to be worried about me.

Thanks for everything.

You would have

done the same.

Man, I don't think it'll be easy

unless we find the real culprit.

DEAN OH JEONG-HUI

If you're curious, come and see.

It seems chaotic.

Yes.

What? It's over?

Prof. Yang requested to resume it later.

Aren't the odds against him now?

Forget the odds, it means he did it.

He wasn't hypoglycemic.

Professor Yang.

Why are you here?

The sugar packet.

-You think I saw it, right?
-Yes.

But why didn't you ask me to testify?

That's your decision,
just as it was for Ye-seul.

My wife got pregnant
after many failed attempts.

If she finds out what I did,
the worst can happen with the shock.

Please don't wait for me. I'm sorry.

Why don't we persuade Sol B?

The prosecutor can't summon her
as a witness because she may say

she saw the sugar packet.

Please summon me as a witness.

I'll destroy
the prosecutor's argument at once.

Then you'll no longer be suspicious of me
for committing plagiarism.

You said you won't let your students
turn into an officer like me.

But she sounds just like me.

So you'll destroy my argument?

Then you'll be all over the news
for making a deal

with a murderer
to cover up your plagiarism.

Seo Ji-ho?

Okay. I'll stop by for a second.

So, you sued me?

You only learned rubbish from Yang.

A first-year law school student
should be studying really hard right now.

You shouldn't use your energy
on this nonsense.

Remember my call?

Who's the prosecutor
mentioned in your article?

I said I couldn't tell you
to protect my informant.

My father died because of him.

SEO GI-YEOL

If you won't tell me,
I'll go to the prosecution.

There's no need.

I'll tell you. Listen up.

It's Prosecutor Seo Byung-ju.

Seo Byung-ju.

It was you, wasn't it?

That was ages ago.

You should've checked long ago.

Checking the facts is
the basic duty of a judicial officer.

If you want to pass the bar exam at once,
drop the lawsuit

and focus on your studies.

He won't be an easy fight.

But I'll seem easy to him.

I guess so.

Why didn't I

ever think of checking this
with your uncle?

Checking the facts is the basics.

It is the basics.

Why didn't I ask him
for the reason he changed,

not even once?

This was made by my dad's company.

Show him that you aren't that easy.

In my eyes, you also

don't seem too easy.

Sol!

-What brings you here?
-Hey, because I missed you.

I'm doing fine thanks to Joon-hwi.
Didn't he tell you?

-Go home.
-Okay.

Dan cut us off ages ago,
and she's not in Korea anymore.

Even if you stayed here--

Telling me to move?

I wanted to talk about Prof. Yang's trial.

If she ever calls, I'll let you know.

Didn't she already call you? No?

If she called Prof. Yang,

I'm sure she called her family.

He couldn't talk to her either.

What the heck are you saying?

I saw him talk to her
with my own two eyes.

What are you talking…

You really didn't get a call?

Man, what is this?

She feels closer to strangers
than her family?

Maybe she got sick of all of you,
so she packed up and left.

Man.

You need to leave this area now.

Are you scared I might do something
to your cute little sister?

You're on a watch 24 hours a day

because there's a high chance
you'll commit another crime.

Exactly.

My every move is getting tracked.

What the heck can I do anyway?
Over there. Look.

Why did you install a CCTV
in front of my place?

To protect Byeol
and to get something I'm after.

What are you after?

It's top secret right now.

Why did you leave during the trial?

My reason is top secret too.

What about the trial? How did it go?

He wasn't hypoglycemic to begin with?

Isn't that critical for Prof. Yang?

Yes, for now.

Forget the sugar or whatnot.

We have to prove
the number on the tester is wrong.

If we say the date is wrong…

We should just catch the culprit.

Where are we going?

To run an errand for Prof. Kim.

Why do you look so worn out?

I'm fine.

Are you here alone?

My mom went out to get a lawyer,

but no one will take it.

Why not?

They all got scared.

The next president,
the man of the Judiciary Committee.

Assemblyman Ko is a big shot.

Darn it.
There are millions of lawyers in Korea.

We say there are too many.

The law circle is very tiny.

Everyone is a friend of another friend.
You can get a public defender.

What if he's like Park Geun-tae?

Not very likely.

You have to find an lawyer soon
to ask for a settlement.

He won't settle this case.

I'm not hopeful.

-But you have to--
-It's grievous bodily harm.

I won't be able to go to school anyway.

I don't care.

But we do.

Come to school.

Let's prepare together
until you find a lawyer.

It'd be perfect
if Prof. Kim could defend her.

A law school professor
can't be an attorney.

I know. I know that.

That's why she didn't defend Prof. Yang.

ASSEMBLYMAN KO HYEONG-SU

I'm sorry I suddenly visited
while you're distressed over your son.

Your sister was like this too.

She suddenly barged in like this
and asked for a job.

She seemed smart, so I trusted her.

I didn't think she'd betray me for money.

Right.

She wouldn't have become such a wreck
if it hadn't been for your stepfather.

The Kang Dan I know would rather get hurt
than become a wreck.

ASSEMBLYMAN KO HYEONG-SU

She wrote something like this.

NOTARIZED DOCUMENT

AGREEMENT

So what?

I was wondering
if you met my stepfather then.

KANG DAN, KANG CHIL-SEONG

Why would I?

It seemed like he needed the money,
not Dan.

Like I said,

your sister came to see me first.

I don't care if your stepfather
put her up for the money or--

I shouldn't have come.

Like father, like son.

Ko Yeong-chang took after you.

What?

The way he said Ye-seul framed him
after filming her in secret

is no different from that time
you said Dan framed you

when you actually did something illegal.

Are you sure you won't regret
what you just said?

Do you have any idea what you just did?

You just lost the chance for Jeon Ye-seul

to settle her case.

All right. We can't help it, then.

Can you let me know
if any lawyer would be up for this?

If I can't take this case,
it means no one will.

Times are tough for us.

Why would we destroy our career
by defying Ko Hyeong-su?

I should quit teaching
and defend her myself.

Okay, then. Goodbye.

Should I do it?

I'm sure
Ye-seul wouldn't want you to quit.

-I heard you and Joon-hwi saw her.
-Yes.

Did you ask her to return to school?

I did, but she didn't give me
a good answer.

I did it too.

I sent her millions of text saying
I'll wait until she comes. She will.

Hey, Attorney Lim.
I'm calling on behalf of my student--

Yes. You already know?

You can't do it?

My goodness.

Look at that kid.

He almost died
then barely came back to life.

But just grievous bodily harm?

Tell the prosecutor

to switch the arraignment
to attempted murder!

We have to be careful
if we want to charge her with that.

We have to prove her motive,
that it was intentional.

It won't be easy to prove
if Jeon Ye-seul intended to kill him.

You're taking loads of money,

yet you only want to do easy work?

They had been dating,

and the incident broke out
as she tried to stop him

from sending a video.

No, that's not it.

You better get your facts straight.

He wasn't trying to send it.

He was trying to delete it

as he asked that brat
to break up with him.

Even so,

the court is very strict
when it comes to attempted murder cases.

The prosecutor said we should charge her
for bodily harm and punish her--

Attorney Song.

Here's my take.

I don't want that brat to be branded

as just some petty assailant
after doing that to my kid.

I'll make sure
she has no place in this world

by making her guilty of murder
or attempted murder.

If that's what you want--

If you can't do that,
get her punished more severely!

Yes, sir.

Who's her attorney?

No one will dare to jump on this case.

Let me know if anyone good takes her case.

I'll make them useless.

GRADES

CONSTITUTIONAL LAW, MOON HONG-GI

I just proved what I can do.

I surpassed everyone
and took the top as an outsider,

so they hate me a little.

Great job.

Prof. Yang filed a complaint
with the school regarding your plagiarism.

We'll begin by discerning the truth.

I will be taking part as the vice dean,
not your father--

It's a loss for the school to lose
a talented student like me.

Please make a wise decision

as the vice dean, not as my dad.

About Seung-jae's grades.

I wasn't trying to see it--

You wanted to.

Fine. I tried my best to take a peek.

How could it all plummet from A plus?

And he submitted an empty sheet
for Civil Code. Something is going on.

He isn't even in school.
He was always in school.

You should call him.

Okay. Eat your food.

I don't think Sol A has to worry
about flunking the year now.

Her finals went well.

Went well, my foot.

My finals for Criminal Code were awful,

and I have no idea what I wrote down
for Constitutional Law.

But it's a relief that I picked out
a potential question for the Civil Code.

You did the best on Criminal Code midterm.

Yes.

Thanks to that abnormality,
I think I may not flunk out.

But I'll have to see.

But still, you had one best score.
Congrats.

-Not flunking isn't cause for celebration.
-Hey!

If you're worried about failing after
studying hard, then consider giving up.

She says she won't have to worry.

Hey, guys.

Did you look at Prof. Jung's announcement?

He'll only grade us on finals and reports,
leaving out Prof. Yang's midterm.

-Are you serious?
-Parents and students protested

how the school let him
give out the midterm.

The trial doesn't look promising,

so the school accepted
Prof. Jung's request.

I heard Prof. Jung went off the grid
to avoid objections from students.

If he leaves out the midterm,

Sol A would be the biggest victim in this.

So is Prof. Yang guilty?

They asked him to remove his office.

In other words, get lost.

If he's a killer, he should be long gone.

What?

-Let's go.
-Let's go.

PROFESSOR JUNG DAE-HYEON

Is this true?

Did you force your student who caused
grievous injury on Assemblyman Ko's son

to get examined for sexual assault?

No, I just made a suggestion.

What are you trying to do?

Are you trying to humiliate my son

because I won't take your bait?

Wasn't killing my best friend enough?

After what happened with your midterm,

if you continue
to cause trouble like this,

we cannot condone this any further.

He has already been put off duty.

There's a high chance
he'll be found guilty.

You shouldn't mention it
before his verdict is--

Does he hold your weakness or something?

Why are you
taking his side so desperately?

You're crossing over the line.

What do you want to say to me?

Apologize to the assemblyman politely,

and it'll look better
if you quit first, so--

I am not going to quit.

You can fire me
once the Supreme Court finds me guilty.

If you want

that brat to settle this,

you'll have to kneel down before me first.

Your student became obsessed with my son,

then caused this tragedy.

The victim in this incident
is the one who got hurt like a moron,

my son.

This is why we say
one can never get rid of their habits.

You little jerk.

Wipe your hands.

And remember, I'm keeping my eyes on you,

the man who loves to mess around
with fake news.

YANG JONG-HOON: ON BUSINESS

My goodness!

Are you all right?

You don't look all right to me.

I will be.

Lee Man-ho said you talked to Dan.

I did.

She called while I was with him,

so I asked her to text me her number.

But nothing yet.

Wait.

I went to see Assemblyman Ko over this.

But I think I caused trouble.

I went over to talk about Dan,

but I brought up Ye-seul, too.

What if she can't settle her case
because of me?

I made him furious.

Great work.

-Sorry?
-Great job.

-What about settling…
-Find another way, then.

A WAY TO AVOID SETTLING A CASE

YOU DON'T HAVE TO SETTLE YOUR CASE
FOR NORMAL ACUPUNCTURE

Gosh, darn it.

Is there a way out of this
without a settlement?

SECOND SEMESTER GRADES

Please.

Darn it.

Prof. Jung Dae-hyeon must be my enemy.

I don't think Ye-seul is here.

Time for the grades of truth.

My gosh, my heart is racing too.

Please.

Please. My gosh, please.

CHECK

Please.

Darn it! I can't do it.

I can't bring myself to check this.

What? You were all in my office.

Ye-seul.

Ye-seul.

We have a long way to travel.
Let's get going.

-Let's go.
-Okay.

You were interested in crime publication
since middle school,

and you won an award on this too.

So you want to test me?

If you help me,
I'll believe you wrote the paper.

How are you going to show me your trust?

-What?
-Since we went to middle school together,

be a witness and say I wrote it.

What do you--

Hello?

Yes, I'll be there right now.

Are we all here?

-I'm here for Seung-jae.
-Okay.

I feel very reassured now.

Sadly, at this moment,

even if she finds a private
or a public defender,

they won't be able to put in
everything they can do.

I'll put in everything I can do!

And me too?

And him too.

Settle first to reduce sentencing.

Is that possible?

She should kneel down if she must.

To a jerk like him? No way.

Should I go do it?

I thought of a few ways
so that she can avoid settling the case.

I thought of this all night.

About Ye-seul, I mean.
We can argue that it was self-defense.

Spreading a sexual video
is already illegal,

and Ye-seul felt tormented to death
because of his actions,

so she was trying to stop him
before he uploaded it.

CASE RULING

Why don't we go with self-defense?

Self-defense?

I agree.

Self-defense isn't recognized too often.

The court has strict criteria
on acknowledging self-defense,

-so it won't be easy.
-It's not a fight if it's easy.

It's a recent ruling of a first trial.

Judge interpreted defense broadly
and affirmed self-defense.

First rulings can be reversed
on the second trial

-and in the Supreme Court.
-It may not happen.

The ruling pointed out that
it's degenerative to assert

you should just stand a beating
in a fight.

If this was made
at least in the lower court,

it means we have a chance.

Okay.

Let's make Ye-seul innocent.

Then we'll need a good attorney too.

Who's his attorney?

JEON YE-SEUL'S FIRST TRIAL

What? They're all his attorneys?

Why does he have so many?
He must be insane.

Why isn't Ye-seul's attorney here?

Her public defender resigned again.

Then who'll be here?

I'm sure someone else was assigned.

All rise.

DEFENSE COUNSEL, ACCUSED

PROSECUTION

Defendant.

When will your attorney get here?

They already seem half-hearted.

She's already in a tight spot.

-I'll go outside and check.
-Okay.

I apologize.

DEFENSE COUNSEL, ACCUSED

-No way.
-What's going on?

Prof. Yang is defending her?

Is that allowed?

Your Honor.

In order for the defendant to be
fairly judged by the Court and the people,

I would like to request a jury trial.

Subtitle translation by Eun Sook Youn

Ergo,

I request that Yang Jong-hoon be sentenced
to 20 years in prison.

So you're deliberately barking up
the wrong tree.

Make sure you catch the real killer.

I said I did it alone because of a grudge!

Something's fishy.

I need to ask something.

One of my uncle's belongings is missing.

-Why?
-Not why but how.

That's what you want to know.

You did this to me.
And what? Self-defense?

The court will be criticized
for appointing a murderer. Not a chance.

So it's up to you.

I'll take care of it, sir.

Professor! What do I do?
