All right, dear. I'm here.

It's okay, sweetheart.

All right. Just wait for a little while.

I'm here.

All right. Here's your milk.

Let's have milk. Come here.

Gosh, my back.

Let's eat. I'll feed you first.

There, there. Were you hungry?

Let's eat.

Can you drink a little faster?

All right.

Honey, come out and eat.

Honey.

-You should wake up now. -Okay.

-Get up and have breakfast. -Gosh.

Just hurry and get up.

-My gosh. -Get up. Come on.

ALARM 7:45 A.M.

Darn it!

Just hurry if you don't want to be late.

My goodness.

Darn it. It stinks!

Eat some more. You'll be hungry if you don't.

Gosh, it's so early in the morning.

I have no appetite this early.

Excuse me. I'll have a bowl of rice soup.

Okay. Just a second.

-Hurry up and eat. We're going to be late. -Okay.

Thank you for the food.

Darn it.

Hello.

-Good morning. -Good morning.

A double shot Americano, right?

Please wait a second.

-Your grandma is here. -There, there.

Have fun with Grandma.

All right, dear.

-I'll get going, Mother. -Okay.

-I'll see you later. -All right.

It's all right. Grandma is here.

-Good morning. -Good morning.

Good morning.

-Good morning. -Good morning.

-Good morning. -Good morning.

Hey.

Get in.

-You came early. -Wait. Excuse me.

Hello.

-Hello. -Why don't you get up early,

instead of running every day?

Sure.

There's a school here.

And a girls' school too.

JINYEONG GIRLS' HIGH SCHOOL

UPRIGHT JINYEONG POLICE CREATE A HAPPY AND SAFE COMMUNITY

There are police officers

and policewomen.

Considering what the model suggests…

There are professors and female professors.

There are employees and female employees.

The same applies to the prosecutors.

Excuse me. I need to use the bathroom.

-Oh, right. -I'll go too.

There are prosecutors

and female prosecutors.

MOTHER-IN-LAW

Yes, Mother.

What am I to do? Jae-hui is burning up.

Jae-hui? Is it a cold?

If it's a cold, I'm afraid Jae-yun might catch it too.

I should take him to a doctor,

but I don't think I can take them both myself.

For now…

Why don't you just wait and see? He might get better soon.

Yes.

Yes, Mother. Please give me a call.

Bye.

Gosh, it's itchy.

Where?

What? It's all right.

-Here? -Yes, in the middle.

-Here? -Yes.

It feels so good.

What?

Gosh.

I can't believe this.

-Prosecutor Lee! -What is it?

Why didn't you tell me you had something like this?

My goodness.

What is this?

You know what this is. Gosh.

So what is it?

Are you really asking me what this is?

BRASS RULER

HIS FIRST DAY AT WORK

Why is this out?

Why is it stuck?

What is this?

You wanted to send me a message of sorts that day with that brass ruler.

As if you were saying "I have something you don't."

"You know what this is, right?"

It was a little childish,

but it made me curious.

Does Prosecutor Lee Seon-ung deserve to have that?

I got the numbers for last month's unsolved cases from each office.

Isn't this interesting?

I'm sure Prosecutor Cha took all your unsolved cases before.

I must say you guys are so gifted.

You've got a lot of cases piled up again.

How would you explain the mystery?

Is there a principle of conservation of unsolved cases or what?

For this sad state of affairs…

Who recorded the most unsolved cases last month?

That's…

Prosecutor Oh, can you explain why?

Well…

First off…

I'm truly sorry for setting a record

for such an unfortunate affair. And more importantly,

I am sorry to have caused you so much anxiety, Mr. Cho.

All right. This is exceptionally bad.

Is something going on in your family?

No. It's just as usual.

I know you're busy taking care of your children,

but you should look at Prosecutor Lee.

His child was forced to transfer for school violence,

but the number of his unsolved case remains the same.

He's always consistent.

You know this isn't a compliment.

Yes, sir.

Lastly,

they say unless we set up an office on a remote island,

getting a single-digit record is impossible.

But not for Prosecutor Cha. Let's give her a big hand and wrap up.

-Darn it. -Hey, stop it.

Wait. Prosecutor Cha.

Yes?

Actually, the thing is…

What's the matter?

Nothing. Go in.

Hey, why are you following me?

How can Mr. Cho be like this?

I'm investigating and doing hearings at the same time.

It's not easy to handle unsolved cases too.

Does he have to humiliate me like that?

I don't think he meant anything bad.

He even talked about Seon-ung's son's school violence.

What really upsets me is…

You know what I mean, right?

When he talks about unsolved cases,

he doesn't care how busy I am and criticizes me harshly.

But when we get a high-profile case like the Jinyeong Girls' Middle School,

he says, "You must be busy being a mother and with the hearing."

And he leaves me out of it.

I'm the main prosecutor that handles school violence cases.

Ms. Jung Yun-a.

You sued your coworker Mr. Bae Hyeong-jin for habitual harassment.

Yes.

For the past year, Bae often put his arm around your shoulders,

touched your hands, and wrapped his arms around your waist.

And two months ago, he kissed you on the lips against your will.

Yes. We were having a team dinner at the karaoke.

Before that, I tried to put up with him,

but I couldn't stand it anymore, so I filed a suit.

I see.

And it took place in the karaoke in front of the bathroom?

Yes.

Is there any witness or evidence that can prove this?

I don't.

Well…

What did you do right after the incident?

I was so shocked that I went out

and got some fresh air before going back in.

I see.

Then have you told anyone like people around you

or your colleagues about this?

I didn't.

I see.

Your coworkers testified that you looked just as usual

on the day of the incident,

so they had no idea such a thing happened that day.

That makes sense. Because I didn't show that I was rattled.

Prosecutor, do you also think I'm lying?

Gosh, no. I'm just asking this for the sake of the procedure.

Okay.

All right.

Hello, sir. How are you?

Oh, dear.

Yes.

I see.

A sexual harassment victim?

She didn't look like one.

How do sexual harassment victims look like then?

She's right.

You shouldn't say things like that elsewhere.

That would put you in big trouble.

I only said that because it's just us.

I mean, she just walked past me, but I felt it.

You'll know if you see her.

We will know if we see her?

Well, what I'm saying is…

You know the type of girls that are sexy.

Are you saying sexy women can't be victims of sexual harassment?

No, that's not what I mean. What I meant was…

She knows she's sexy.

There are some women who use their gender to their advantage.

I didn't mean anything bad.

It's just that she touched me as she walked past me.

That's why.

-What? -She touched you?

What do you mean?

What?

We almost bumped into each other,

and she touched me like this.

A light touch like this.

Can you please watch what you say?

Don't say anything that can cause a misunderstanding, okay?

Yes, sir.

Did you not feel offended when she touched you?

Then it can be a problem.

Such a remark

is intended to mock the victims of sexual harassment.

Do you know how hard it is for the victims to share their experiences?

I'm sorry. It was meant to be a joke.

Sexual assault isn't something to joke about, you know.

Hello? Yes, Mother.

Really?

What should I do? Please wait.

I'll call you back right away.

Why? What's wrong?

My son is running a high fever.

Then he should go see a doctor.

The thing is, my mother-in-law has a back problem,

so she can't carry two kids at the same time.

So she can't take both of them alone.

Do you have any interviews or trials in the afternoon?

Not really.

Then you should go.

If I go now, I'll come back after two at the earliest.

It's okay, so just go.

-I'll make it quick then. -Just go.

-Okay. -I'm so sorry.

I feel so bad for Prosecutor Oh.

There, there. It's okay.

I'm sorry.

Kim Jae-hui.

Yes.

You're doing so well.

It's a cold.

It's been going around these days.

It's not bad,

so he will get better if he takes his medicine well.

Okay.

Oh, right.

This is for you, ma'am.

What?

You're going back to work, right?

You did a good job, baby.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

GOOD LUCK TODAY, WE SUPPORT YOU ALL THE TIME

Hey, what did the doctor say?

It's just a cold. I just gave him the medicine.

So give him another dose with water after dinner.

Okay.

Call Sang-u on your way back.

For what?

He said he'd come this weekend.

I don't want him to catch a cold. Tell him not to come.

He wouldn't listen to me. All right.

-There, there. -I should get going.

Okay. I'll give you the medicine. That's your mom.

-Bye. -Say bye to your mom.

Say bye. It's all right. Bye.

There, there.

MISSED CALL MR. KIM JANG-SIN

MR. KIM JANG-SIN

Mr. Kim, I forgot to tell you, but I'm now…

What?

Was there an interview scheduled?

I told him to wait,

but do you want me to do it?

Yes. Please do it for me. Okay.

Gosh, this is crazy.

-Prosecutor Oh, how's your son? -Excuse me, sir.

VIDEO INVESTIGATION ROOM

My goodness.

You said you didn't have any interviews today.

I thought I didn't, but it turns out I forgot it.

So did Mr. Kim take care of it well?

How long did the witness wait?

For about 30 minutes.

But I explained so he could understand.

And I offered a proper apology.

In the end, he left with a smile.

Why did you apologize to him?

-Pardon? -You should've said

Mr. Kim was in charge today.

If you apologize, he'll know that you did something wrong.

I see.

"I see?" My goodness.

Use your brains!

No.

PROSECUTOR OH YUN-JIN

It's no big deal. Just don't come when I say so.

I don't know. Just don't come without asking questions.

Listen to me. Bye.

Darn it.

MOTHER-IN-LAW

Yes, Mother.

What?

Really?

Yes, Mother. I'll do that.

Bye.

What's the matter?

The other kid is running a fever too.

Gosh. What are you going to do?

I should take him to a doctor again.

I can't work until late today.

I need to focus.

I can do this.

Are you going for dinner?

Yes. Are you going home?

Yes. My other son is running a fever too.

It's hard to raise kids while working, right?

Yes.

If it's too hard,

you could consider taking a leave.

It might be better than failing to do your job properly.

Aren't you getting off?

How could you say that

when you're a woman too?

I'm saying this since I'm a woman too.

I don't want people to say, "This is why we can't have female prosecutors."

It's all right.

It's okay. Mommy is here.

Let me take a look. Can you hold him for me?

Open your mouth.

You're doing a good job.

Ma'am, you're here.

Oh, okay.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Gosh, my back.

They're asleep now. I think the fever has gone down.

I'm glad to hear that.

The kids whine less when you're around.

It'll be much better if you could take a leave and stay home.

Goodness.

Oh, dear. He's up.

It's all right. Grandma is coming.

It's all right. There, there.

Come here.

Don't cry. It's all right.

There, there.

It's okay. Stop crying.

Let's go back to sleep.

Hey, Mommy is here.

You're up.

Gosh, this is driving me crazy.

It's all right. Come here.

There, there.

It's all right.

Okay.

I'm here, sweetheart.

I'm here.

The point of this indictment is that the defendant, Yoo Jae-hun,

has been assaulting the victim habitually.

But the prosecutor's claims are not enough to accept this.

Therefore, there is no evidence in the indictment to prove the charges.

Thus, not guilty.

PROSECUTOR

The court is adjourned.

-Well done. -Thank you.

It's over.

CRIMINAL COURT

My gosh.

Yes, Mother.

Yun-jin, I'm here.

Honey, what about work?

I took some days off. I can stay until the weekend.

I told you not to come. Why do you not listen to me at all?

I thought something was wrong at home.

You should've told me the kids were sick.

Let me talk to her.

Yun-jin, come home early today.

On your way home, buy some hairtail for Sang-u.

Well…

Mother, I'm afraid I can't do that.

You can find some mackerel in the freezer.

He even took days off to come. How can I give him frozen mackerel?

All right, anyway.

I'll take care of it.

Wait…

I like mackerel a lot.

Well done.

Bye.

All right.

You met Ms. Jung Yun-a, right?

She's really something.

She wouldn't let men do such a thing to her.

Do you remember what happened on the day of the incident?

Mr. Bae and Ms. Jung looked just the same as usual.

By "Mr. Bae," you're referring to Bae Hyeong-jin, right?

Yes.

There was a lot of flirting. From Ms. Jung Yun-a.

It's not just Mr. Bae though.

She flirts with many other male seniors.

It makes more sense that Ms. Jung crossed the line first.

Mr. Bae is very gentle.

-Prosecutor Oh. -Yes.

-Leave your robe. Let's go for lunch. -Okay.

Prosecutor Oh.

Is it true that we lost the dating abuse case?

Yes.

He beat the victim more than ten times this year.

On what grounds was he acquitted?

The thing is…

Well…

It just happened that way.

What do you mean by that?

Were you busy being a mom?

-No. -If not,

I want you to explain why this happened.

You're so sure he's guilty as the prosecutor in charge.

It almost sounds like it's my fault we lost.

Is it not your fault?

That's enough.

We can file an appeal.

That's a given. I want you to tell me why he got acquitted today.

Tell me if you're having difficulties

with hearings because of your child. I can cover for you.

Cover for whom?

Are you saying that I'm doing a bad job because I'm a mother?

Isn't that true?

What's going on?

Sir, it's nothing.

Let's go have lunch, sir.

I'll eat alone today. I have a lot of work to do.

I'll eat alone too.

Wait, Prosecutor Oh…

-What's with them? -It's no big deal, sir.

-What happened? -It's nothing.

Let's go eat.

PROSECUTOR'S OFFICE PROSECUTOR LEE SEON-UNG

"Isn't that true?" Prosecutor Cha was so brutal with the facts.

It'll take Prosecutor Oh a while to heal.

Facts, my foot.

The reason Prosecutor Oh is having a hard time

isn't her children, you know?

It's the government's fault

and our fault.

They tell women to have kids, talking about the low birth rate.

But when they do,

people say, "Young kids need their moms' care."

They put all the responsibility on women just like that.

That's why working moms have a hard time focusing on their work.

This reminds me of when I raised Gi-jun.

Still, things are much better than before though.

Right.

Mr. Cho is being considerate too.

Right.

If things got really better

and if Mr. Cho was being really considerate,

we wouldn't be having this conversation.

I can't believe what's happening here.

Are they high schoolers or what?

They are not having lunch together just because they quarreled?

They just didn't want to fight again having lunch together.

It's not like that never happened before.

It's like our division's thing. Don't you think so?

You fought with her,

and she fought with her too.

It's not like we fight all the time.

It's just that Prosecutor Cha keeps getting on my case.

I can see why.

Seon-ung, you opened a beer with the brass ruler.

-How do you know that? -I told him.

That doesn't belong to me.

-What? -The brass ruler.

I didn't earn it. I found it in my drawer when I came here.

What?

Are you serious?

Yes.

Why you…

I even proudly told the branch chief that you earned that brass ruler.

-What are you going to do? -Why did you do that?

And why did you do that?

-My gosh. Please excuse us. -Sorry.

Damn it.

When we're done eating,

we're going to his office.

We should tell him the truth.

I didn't even mention the brass ruler in front of him.

Why would I do that?

BRANCH CHIEF'S OFFICE

What is it?

Well…

It's nothing serious.

I just have something to tell you.

The thing is…

It's about the brass ruler I told you about before.

What Prosecutor Lee received from Professor Park Dae-cheon?

Yes. About that.

I just found out today myself.

Prosecutor Lee's brass ruler is…

Yes?

I'll come back to talk to you later.

No, I'll come back later.

It looks like you were discussing something important.

It's not serious. I'll come back later.

Then say it now.

We were talking about Prosecutor Lee's brass ruler.

Did you hear about it as well, Mr. Nam?

Yes.

I have heard about it before.

But he never bragged about it once.

That sounds just like him.

So what is it you want to say?

Well…

I mean, the thing is…

Well…

The truth is, the brass ruler was

what Prosecutor Lee…

He…

He…

He?

He found it.

I knew it.

Everyone in his division is like that.

He usually uses it as a bottle opener.

What?

You know what he's like.

He doesn't want to make a big deal out of a mere brass stick.

That's what he said.

-My gosh. -How dare he call

such a meaningful thing a mere brass stick?

This isn't just right. Don't you think so?

I can tell one thing for sure.

We dare not fathom what great plans Prosecutor Lee has.

Right.

What?

It just happened that way.

You can't tell him another lie like that.

It was a white lie.

Come on, Mr. Cho.

Actually,

it's nothing bad for you.

It is bad for me.

Technically, this is like a fraud or educational background forgery.

Whatever.

What's done is done.

I can't take it back.

Then I'll go tell him that you were mistaken.

Wait.

You can't.

Then Division Chief Nam will find out.

And he will make fun of me. Don't you think so?

Mr. Cho, you know I'm not good at telling lies.

I'm not telling you to lie.

Just stay quiet, okay?

Hey, Seon-ung. I'm begging you.

Darn it.

This is all your fault in the first place.

Why did you use such a precious thing as a bottle opener?

I had no idea that brass stick meant so much.

How did you not know? That doesn't make sense.

Everyone from Seoul National University was dying to earn it.

Were you an outcast back in university?

What?

Whatever. Just get out.

You may leave.

How could you…

Darn it.

HUSBAND

Ms. Jung wanted to get promoted so badly.

Actually, I knew it wouldn't happen,

but I just said, "I know you've been working hard."

After Jung found out that she didn't get the promotion,

how did she react?

She was very frustrated.

She seemed to blame me.

But still,

how could she tell such a lie?

Ms. Jung is quite touchy with her coworkers.

When we walked together, she'd take my arm first.

You know the type, right?

And she says I forced her to…

I swear that never happened.

Hey, Prosecutor Oh. Are you leaving now?

-Yes. -Is everyone here?

Prosecutor Cha can't make it.

-Let's just go ourselves. -Really?

Are you going somewhere?

We're going for a barbecue. Your husband is buying.

What?

How could you plan such a thing without talking to me first?

You didn't answer my call, so I just talked to them.

I'm doing this to support you.

Support, my foot.

What about our kids?

They both are a lot better now.

Mom says she can look after them.

But we can't do this to Mother.

Don't worry. Actually, this was Mom's idea.

She told me to go and have dinner with your coworkers.

She doesn't seem that way, but she cares about you a lot.

That's because

she wants you to get on the senior prosecutors' good side.

That's not for me.

Cancel the reservation immediately.

I'll take care of the rest here.

And have dinner with Mother. Bye.

Let's go.

-Go home? -To Wet Fog.

-No, we're okay. -Let's go.

Let's just go.

Prosecutor Oh, you don't have to do this for us.

Let's get wasted tonight.

-Your husband is calling you. -What?

All right. We will drink until we pass out tonight, okay?

Let's drink and pass out.

-Let's pass out. -Let's pass out.

I'm so sorry.

My husband is so silly.

How did he even know your phone number?

Well, that's…

He called my office,

so I gave him everyone's number.

So…

Prosecutor Oh, are you all right? I don't think you should drink.

I'm okay.

Your kids are sick too.

-Are you sure you're okay? -I'm fine.

My husband will take good care of them and give me the support like he wanted.

-Are you all right? -I said I'm fine!

I'm all right.

All right.

If you ask me if I'm okay again,

you will have to drink.

Once again, drink it up.

I'm fine.

-I'm fine. -I'm fine.

-Oh, dear. -Hey!

-Are you all right? -Prosecutor Oh.

What's wrong with her? I told her not to drink.

Is this the only bed available?

Thank you.

There are a lot of patients.

-You should go now. -It's okay. Don't worry about us.

Just go.

Why did you drink so fast when you weren't feeling well?

Honey.

-Hello. -Hello.

Hello.

We will get going then.

My goodness.

I'll see you later.

-Bye. -Thank you.

Thank you.

Where are the kids?

They're sleeping in the car.

You can't leave them alone in the car. Just go check them.

Okay.

What did the doctor say?

I'm just a little fatigued.

This is why I told you to do a half day. Why are you so stubborn?

I just said that for your sake.

You said that for my sake?

Mother, are you serious?

Hey, have a seat here. Sit.

Gosh, you must be tired from work.

You know I work too.

You have to listen to me.

Just until the kids start walking. Take six months' leave, okay?

Mother.

I guess my work means nothing to you. I'm not even a prosecutor to you, right?

What, Yun-jin?

Your son isn't the only prosecutor.

I'm also a decent prosecutor at work.

And for my parents,

I'm their proud daughter who's a prosecutor.

I also have a job.

And I'm my parent's precious daughter.

What?

When I come home

after working all day, I'm dead tired.

But I have to take care of the kids and clean the house.

I can't even get rest at home when you're around.

And I can finally relax when I go to bed.

I work all day.

And I can finally rest after I get off work.

That dumbhead doesn't even know what she's saying.

What is she saying?

I'm sorry, Mother. I need to rest.

Honey, hurry and go home with Mother. The kids are waiting in the car.

Now?

Okay. I'm leaving.

-Let's go, Mom. -What? But…

-Let's go. -Bye. Take good care of yourself.

-Yes, Mother. -Bye.

-Get some rest. -Okay.

My name is Oh Yun-jin.

All right.

There, there.

-It's all right. -Your call cannot be completed.

She's not answering.

-What? -She's not picking up.

Where did she go?

Gosh, Mom.

Gosh, what's so loud?

Hello?

What?

My goodness.

-My gosh. -Mom. Please be careful.

I'm so dizzy.

-What's happening? -Thank you for your help.

-Ma'am. Hello. -Hello.

I'm in a hurry now. Thank you for your help.

Sure.

Wait…

Mom.

What happened?

Prosecutor Oh didn't come home, and her mother-in-law is injured.

She didn't come home?

They don't know. The hospital says she left early in the morning.

But she didn't come home and isn't answering her phone.

She passed out at Wet Fog last night.

Maybe she passed out again?

Did her mother-in-law hurt her back?

Yes. I think she hurt her back.

Don't you think we should go look for Prosecutor Oh then?

Maybe we should call Prosecutor Kim

to take care of the kids while we look for her.

He has a blind date today, so he's not coming.

It's the weekend, so Jong-hak must be

busy with the church choir.

Then I'll stay here. You can go look for her.

Are you sure?

Of course.

I'll go ask the hospital first and call you.

-Okay. -All right.

-I'm Prosecutor Lee Seon-ung. -Hello.

I'm looking for a patient who left the emergency room this morning.

Can I check the CCTV footage?

Okay. Just a second.

What?

Can you zoom in here a little?

VACANT

-Hey, Prosecutor Cha. -Come here.

-Look at you. -Come here.

My goodness.

My goodness. Look at them.

Oh, dear. Look at you.

-There, there. -My goodness.

-Hello? -Where are you?

I'm on my way to the police station.

Police station?

She took a taxi at around 2 a.m.

And she got off at our residence.

But she didn't come home?

Right.

I'm fine.

-I'm fine. -I'm fine.

Thank you. My name is Oh Yun-jin.

VACANT

What? No!

How many hours do female abductees usually have before we can save them?

I should've called the police first. Damn it.

I should call her family first. I'm hanging up.

That's enough.

We can file an appeal.

-Hold on. -What?

Why are we here?

Come this way.

I don't think she'll be here. She's…

What is this?

STATEMENT OF REASON FOR APPEAL

GOOD LUCK TODAY, WE SUPPORT YOU ALL THE TIME

-Gosh, Mother. -Why did you not answer your phone?

Where have you been?

I'm so sorry.

I went back to work to take care of something,

but I ended up falling asleep.

I'm so sorry. You must've been worried.

My goodness. Is your back all right?

Yun-jin.

Yes.

How are you feeling? Are you all right?

Yes.

I understand how you're feeling.

I know you're ambitious about your work.

But…

you just seemed so exhausted.

So I thought

it would be better for you to take a leave.

It's not like you're an ordinary office worker.

You're a prosecutor who works for the country.

What's there to worry about?

Who would say no when a prosecutor wants to rest?

But, Mother.

It's not easy to take maternity leave even for a prosecutor.

Female prosecutors are already being criticized

for neglecting their work because of kids.

-Really? -Yes.

But they're prosecutors. What's wrong with them?

We still have a long way to go.

Tell me about it.

So I was thinking…

we should let him take a leave.

I already took maternity leave once when I gave birth.

-Me, all of a sudden? -Yes.

Gosh, but he's absolutely useless.

My gosh.

Oh, dear.

What's wrong?

-Why are you crying? -What is it?

-Come here. -Look at this.

Hey, you're here.

-Hello. You're here. -I'm so sorry.

-Mr. Hong, I'm so sorry. -It's all right.

-Mommy is here. -Your mom is here.

-I'm really sorry. -Your baby cries a lot.

It's all right now.

You're here. Have some of this.

-Is it chicken? -Yes.

Goodness.

It's beer.

Oh, right.

Yes, Su-jin.

It's nice to talk to you.

I'm Kim Jeong-u.

You have such a lovely voice.

Are you free next weekend?

-Mommy. -It's all right.

Let's go here.

It's all right.

There you go.

What's wrong?

Ms. Jung.

Some people think you are falsely accusing an innocent person.

It must've been hard

to sue your colleague and come all the way here.

But in order for us to indict him and bring this to trial,

we need you to stay strong.

We would need your help

to be able to help you.

I…

joined the company when I was 29.

It was quite a late age for a female employee.

Do you know what I regretted the most at work?

I should've learned this.

They would smoke throughout the day.

But apparently,

the bond you build and the information you hear there

outweigh what you hear and see by attending ten team dinners.

So I started smoking.

I didn't even like it,

but I kept smoking, which was killing me.

Thanks to that, I could get promoted a lot faster than other female employees.

But after that,

I ended up wishing for more.

WELFARE TEAM 2

Sir, could you please take a look at this? You asked for…

Later.

Yes, sir.

Sir.

"I wish I were a little prettier."

"Then things would've been a lot easier

just like they are for her."

The doctor will see you now.

So I improved my looks.

I started wearing makeup,

lost weight, and bought new clothes.

Then people finally started looking at me

and treating me differently.

Thanks to all that, things became a lot easier at work.

-Love shot! -I'll do it. Stop that.

But at some point,

things started to get somewhat strange.

Ga-eun, can you check this again for me?

Well…

Ga-eun, you have a lot of work to do these days.

You must be tired.

-I just thought it was another thing -It feels nice, doesn't it?

that I had to put up with for my career's sake.

Getting used to all that.

So I put up with it.

I think I was good at it.

But…

That incident…

That incident…

I just…

couldn't get used to it, no matter how hard I tried.

Do you know what I regretted the most while I was working?

Being born a woman.

If I were a man, I wouldn't have to put up with all that.

But I did.

What Ms. Jung Yun-a regretted the most while she was working

was the fact that she was born a woman.

I read the statement you worked on.

It sounded brutal.

Yes, I paid a lot of attention.

It must not be easy to focus on your work

while being a mother.

I know it's hard…

but hang in there.

I don't think that helps.

What a weirdo.

There are soldiers

and female soldiers.

There are actors and actresses.

There are students and female students.

Hey!

-Hello. -Good morning.

-Hello, Prosecutor Cha. -Hello.

And there are prosecutors and female prosecutors.

Good morning.

But I think it's about time we can just call everyone prosecutors.

-Hello, Mr. Cho. -Hi.

-Come on in. -Okay.

I guess you don't come to work by bike anymore.

I have an ankle problem.

Wait.

No.

-Come in. -Hey.

-Hello. -Hi.

Good morning.

Prosecutor Oh, why don't you try biking to work?

-Shall I? -It makes you healthy.

Now that you don't bike, you can give it to her.

Mind your own business.

What's all this?

Gosh, I always wondered what he was doing in his room.

This looks amazing.

Gosh, it's heavy.

My goodness. This is so cool.

GOOD LUCK TODAY, WE SUPPORT YOU ALL THE TIME

Everyone, you all saw this, right?

-I'll sue you. -Go ahead and do it.

I request an official investigation.

-Is he crazy? -What do we do?

He's the first prosecutor to file a suit for his own case.

Did you plot this together?

Do you want me to file a national petition?

I'll show you what happens if you try to scam a prosecutor.

What's the mission you received?

-What is this? -This is my duty.

I will help you.

On such an important month when you have to be extra cautious…

-Hwang the Axe is back. -What?

Is that something you should all be worried about?

For this man, filing a lawsuit is a game and a hobby.

-Get off me. -Brace yourself.

Who will take care of this?

I will.

Prosecutor Cha, make sure to take care of it properly.

Arrest? I guess you haven't learned your lesson yet.

I'm Prosecutor Cha Myeong-ju of the Jinyeong Branch.

Mr. Lee, arrest him.
