LEE Jong-hyuk On Mondays, I usually dress in cold colors.

Primary colors make me

look too frivolous as a lawyer.

My specialty is M&A, working for any company looking to increase profits.

Now I'm working for the Dae-yang Corp. To expand their profits as far as the law allows.

In the past 33 years of my life, I've had so many career options.

I could have done anything I wanted.

I could've been an athlete. I could've been a successful musician.

But my ultimate choice was to be a lawyer.

Well, I won't say that I never thought about law and order...

but I know better than to believe I can change the world...

and don't have any delusions of being a penniless hero.

Good morning, Mr. SHIN!

The acquisition of McDowell is within reach...

once the downsizing process is completed, it'll be done in a week.

Ms. PARK!

I'm sorry sir, but...

it's only been a few months since the lay offs, so, it's difficult...

You do appreciate how hard Mr. SHIN has worked to get us here!

We'll be in trouble if things are delayed a single minute!

- Hey, Ms. YOM. - What is it? Mr. NA?

I have a better idea than to keep cutting the staff.

Why don't we just quit ourselves? What do you think?

We should just use subsidiaries to avoid any problems.

Play the staff. Tell'em that if they resign now, they can getjobs there...

under the same employment terms as now.

And order the subsidiaries to take them on and then fire them.

The subsidiaries aren't in a position to say no, right?

Take measures to move on SHIN's plan.

If anyone gives us a hard time... put them on the suspension list.

Follow any suspicious activity, and if anything's found, take care of it.

Yes, sir.

On paper, the terminations have to be recorded as voluntary.

Okay?

Isn't it great? This is the way I start my day.

Shin Suk-ki Blues

Put them on the suspension list.

I know you must be busy.

What's up?

Just wanted to congratulate you.

What a surprise! You remembered my birthday?

Birthday?

Then this is going to be the best birthday gift ever.

Dad's planning to make you CEO of the company.

What you do think?

An organ donor?

It's just PR for the TV talk show, you know me.

Right, you never pass on the chance of marketing yourself!

Mr. SHIN

You're still in bed aren't you? It's already 12:30.

Mr. SHIN!

Hello, this is SHIN. Yeah, the lawyer.

You're supposed to be in court at 2, remember?

Don't forget!

Where's the paper?

You brats!

Good morning, I mean good afternoon.

- Are you going to work late today? - Yes, well...

You're locked out again, right?

Just a second.

Voila!

How can I thank you, every time!

It's neighborly love. I'm always here for you.

Love and a helping hand are what we really need.

If you ever need me as a lawyer, I'm here for you.

Thanks, but I was released from jail yesterday...

and I hope I won't need one for the time being.

Yeah, right. I see. And your wife is still...?

She'll be back home tomorrow.

That's good.

See you soon.

Hey, Jin-young, what're you doing?

Law?

You know the man I love is a lawyer.

I need to know what my rights and duties are, right?

Come on sweetie wake up.

I told you that he's a womanizing loser.

You'll just get hurt!

Criminal Code, Article 307,

Dissemination of slander that injures the reputation of a person

is punishable with a fine of 5 million won or imprisonment for up to 1 year.

Suk-ki is a cold player. Don't get fooled!

I've been watching him for 1 year.

He's handsome, very attractive,

and has a successful career.

And most of all, he's got something special that no one else can see.

And I'm the one who can see it.

Oh my God, you're crazy.

You know what? You'll see. The day has finally come.

Tonight, I'm gonna make him fall for me. He's going to be my man.

I'd like to request an examination of the signature on the evidence...

that states KIM Ho-gul, ex husband of the plaintiff claims...

KIM claims legal ownership of the property.

Then send the evidence to the Nat'I Institute of Scientific Investigation.

I don't give a shit about an investigation!

I want my land back!

Just throw the bastard in jail!

Please, Ms... calm down.

Ms. NAH!

This is a courtroom, behave yourself! Just settle down.

Your honor, I apologize but I need to go to the restroom...

Hey, what'll I do with you gone!

I'm at court. Fine.

I have to piss. Gotta go!

- In-chol? - Who is that?

- Hey, it's me, Suk-ki. - Oh yeah.

I was thinking about dropping by your office tomorrow.

I have some information for you.

Don't bother. I'll stop by your house tonight.

I'll see... you then.

Okay, then I'll see you tonight. Take it easy.

Hi, Mr. SHIN!

Are you going home? I'm on my way home, too.

You want a ride to the bus stop?

You're the first one I see every morning when I get to work.

Yeah.

You always wear black or gray suits, right?

And for shirts, mostly white...

except on rainy or gloomy days when you wear gray.

You don't like your shoes overly polished...

and your feet are a little bit wide so you have your shoes hand made.

And your after shave is very strong and musky...

and it lasts long.

To be honest... I love the smell of it.

That's impressive! You're a keen observer, aren't you?

Well, not for everyone...

Could you pull the car over please?

Happy birthday, Mr. SHIN.

Oh, how did you know...?

Why don't you open it?

Hey, it's great!

You really shouldn't have!

I know this isn't your favorite color. Actually, that's why I chose it.

Even though you don't wear it...

every time you look at it, you'll think about me.

That way I'll be in your heart...

You know what, just singing happy birthday is plenty.

Happy birthday to you.

Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday dear Suk-ki,

happy birthday to you.

Well... see you...

You don't need to do this.

Never mind. I just want to show you my appreciation.

Okay?

I can never receive presents without giving something in return.

Chateau L'Angelus, please.

If you don't mind... Can I ask you a favor?

Who did you say?

She's the receptionist at the front desk.

Since when have you two been together?

It's not what you think.

Do you actually think I'd be with a receptionist?

I didn't know her until today when she showed up with a birthday gift...

So I just want to take her out for the night.

Birthday gift? What, is she psycho or something?

Well, I think so. She's almost there.

Hello, Ms. YOM.

Yeah, I get it. She does look like one.

Anyway, take care. I'll talk to you later.

What do I look like?

Never mind. Why don't we go?

Jin-young, have you ever seen me playing the trumpet?

What?

You know, you asked me to play out of the blue.

I heard you play atjazz bars, so I went a couple of times.

I just watched you play from a distance.

Interesting, you know a lot about me!

Because... I like you.

And, um... I love you.

Do you... really love me?

- Wait... - If you don't want to, I'll stop.

From tomorrow... I don't know how to act with you.

Just as if nothing happened.

What?

Just act as if nothing happened, okay?

Okay?

- What do you mean? - Where did you say you lived?

Just what're you saying?

Don't get too emotional. It was just one time.

Stop the car. Now!

What're you doing?

Go to hell, you bastard...

I'm going to pray that you die until you do!

Please, come as quickly as possible.

Welcome.

Give me something hot to drink.

What's this?

It's a fortune telling ashtray.

Insert a 100 won coin, and you'll get what fate has to offer you today.

Man, this is an antique!

"Live or die... rich or poor..." "it is all in the hands of fate."

If this isn't enough, I'll get you more next week.

Thanks, In-chol.

Are you leaving?

It's your birthday, have some cake.

No, thanks, I have to run, got some work to do.

Alright.

- Okay, see you. - Take care.

Oh, excuse me, sir.

Guess the guard didn't screen the visitors.

Intubation!

Everybody, hands off!

Heart rate dropping!

Are you feeling better?

Mr. SHIN, can you hear me?

You've been in a comma for 3 days,

so it's going to take time to recover.

3 days? Is that why I feel so weak and lifeless?

Lt'll take some time for you to heal, so don't worry.

Take a look.

Where's the other man who was with me?

Are his vital signs strong?

He was transferred to neurosurgery. Let me check on it.

He may be in the operating room, because he's an organ donor.

Who the hell are you?

How could you do this to me?

Forget I signed the organ donation paper!

You got no right of cutting me up and taking my organs.

I understand. Just calm down and put that thing down.

You put them down first!

Put them down!

Did you already cut me open?

Sir, where should I put this?

Medically we call it "dissociation", producing...

a lack in the connection of a person's thoughts, or sense of identity.

Certain information is not associated with other information.

The sufferer thinks that they're someone else.

But it's temporary, so don't worry too much.

And the other SHIN Suk-ki?

He's still unconscious from a brain injury...

which has put him in a coma. He's a vegetable.

You two were born on the same day, with the same name!

What a coincidence!

Go to hell, you bastard!

I'm going to pray that you die until you do!

Where the hell is it? It was here!

Don't try to stop me. I'm going home!

This is the last warning!

If you keep getting in my way... I'll make you regret it!

Regret what?

You stupid bastards!

ID Card / SHIN Suk-ki

Hey, Mr. SHIN!

Oh, locked out again?

For neighborly love.

I'm here for you!

Voila!

Man, you don't look so good!

Get out of here! Are you a witch or something?

I know it. It's all because of me!

You don't believe me, but I prayed for this...

and now, see what happened!

Hey, why don't you go and console her...

- Hey! - What? Yeah, it is my specialty.

Please, stop crying!

Stop blaming yourself!

It was just an accident.

It doesn't matter who did what...

just look at what happened to him.

She's still crying! You should go and console her.

Just say to her, "OH, my baby, don't cry"!

Alright, I'll be right there.

Oh, my baby, don't cry!

Ltjust happened, whether you cursed him or not!

- Hey, baby. - Hey!

What?

Where the hell are the socks?

Are these gloves?

Damn it!

Hey mister!

Damn, the security is supposed to stop beggars from coming in!

Hey, you've been so sensitive since what happened to SHIN.

It's natural to feel sad when even a pet dog is missing.

Are you serious? I thought the two of you were going to be married.

Don't get the wrong idea, he isn't that special.

He's just a good- looking, successful lawyer, but that's not enough.

Right, he's so selfish and annoying. No one really likes him.

Not a single person has gone to see him in the hospital.

Wait a minute.

It was just a sick leave as far as I understood it.

But you actually fired me? You're just picking on me.

This is clearly a violation of Art. 30 of the Labor Standard Act!

Oh, I didn't know you were so smart!

If you're so keen at law, why don't you try suing us!

You're back home and didn't call me?

Everyone's waiting for you at the office, hurry up!

Welcome back, Mr. SHIN!

Our beloved SHIN Suk-ki,

Welcome home!

Your nose is bleeding!

What... are you doing?

It didn't happen like this when I did it to my other friends.

Fine, but remember I'm not your friend lady!

Oh, he doesn't look too good.

Well he had a brush with death and...

Miss JANG, we have to go to work.

We're all counting on you

as our lawyer, all right?

Let's get going!

Ave Maria.

I wish I had the old days back.

Ave Maria

Please take me back.

I'm dying to have my old days back.

Rat Poison

Can I help you?

That one!

That'll be 8,000 won.

Sorry but... Do you have anything smaller?

3,000 won.

Sorry but... I need a smaller size.

I really need it. You don't understand.

Remember, even a little bit is lethal.

I can't believe it, how could you be here like this!

I'm so sorry. I feel like this is all my fault!

I cursed you, and feel guilty for it.

So that I didn't even have the courage to come see you.

I'm so sorry.

I'm sorry...

I didn't know that you were injured in the accident too.

- It's such a surprise that you came! - What?

Well, we're in the same company, so...

It's just interesting that at least ONE person came to see him.

People say that he's so selfish and annoying.

- No one likes him. - How cruel!

In front of him, everybody was always putting on fake smiles.

Right, you know how I feel.

- Hey, I'm wondering, but... - What?

Why are you talking to me as if we've met before!

It's not the weekend so how come you're here?

I just wanted to see you, mom. I got some time off.

You know, you're lucky to have gotten a job there.

You should work hard there.

Alright?

Don't worry. I'm doing fine.

Damn!

Hey, Suk-ki, you should've called me if you were back!

How come you made me come find you?

Hey, In-chol. Do you recognize me?

I can't believe this!

Then where did the soul of... the owner of this body go?

I don't have a clue.

How come you know... this character?

He's a friend from college. Anyway, are you getting by alright?

I have no idea.

He's been living so pathetically, and

I don't now how to make a living. He's just barely making rent!

Here, take it.

Hey, In-chol!

How can I?

But I didn't say I wouldn't take it.

I think finding this fortune telling ashtray is the key.

Well, it's a waste of time.

By the time you find it, I'll wind up

committing suicide or in a nut house.

Wake up man, that's not the solution here.

You have a chance.

Trust me, I'll find it for you.

You're the infamous, one and only Suk-ki, aren't you?

Alright, I can do it!

Not a single money making case!

Mostly public defense cases, damn!

How could you live like this?

You look so different today.

And you even parted your hair, it's so strange!

I'll be back soon.

Wait, the woman at the fish market is coming any minute now.

Just tell her to find herself some other petty lawyer!

Got it?

And, get rid of that ridiculous hair band.

Forget it, man!

If you're a lawyer, then I'm a judge, moron!

Believe me, I'm a friend of the director here!

- Please let me in. - What do you think you're doing!

You got to believe me, I'm his friend.

Hello!

Next, case number 2004-84... Is the plaintiff present?

Yes, sir.

- Plaintiff SUH Jin-young... - Yes, sir.

You haven't found a lawyer to represent you yet?

Are you choosing to defend yourself?

Yes, sir.

I see, then defendant, present your case.

Your honor, I'd like to move for a settlement outside of court.

Plaintiff, what's your response?

Miss SUH, answer my question.

Well... l...

We accept, your honor.

Let me just tell you that...

I don't have any money to pay you for this in advance.

No problem, you know me...

We'll get the most money possible, from the settlement.

Money?

Yeah, we'll agree on a reconciliation settlement, and get paid.

But I want my job back, not money!

Please, be reasonable.

The case isn't going to be settled exactly the way you want.

I understand you feel it's unfair, but...

Let's see...

- Hey, is the lawyer here? - Sir, we've come here for you.

Is there a problem, sir?

Is there anything wrong?

Sorry, but why don't we go to my house to discuss this in private?

Come on in.

- Do you want coffee? - Yes, thank you.

Just a second.

What can I do for you?

Sorry, but... do you have any coffee?

I have a visitor and...

Oh, I get it. Don't worry about a thing, just go back and wait.

I don't mean... well...

Hey, do you want sugar for your coffee?

Hey, hey!

You should be more polite!

- You should say "Ma'am." - Ma'am, sugar?

2 teaspoons, thank you.

And you...?

Me?

Take a guess!

You're so hot!

You lick that so sexily!

Hello, mister!

Come on in.

You, what are you think you're doing?

Move it moron!

Listen honey, don't get upset.

Wow, sexy panties!

Once again I assert that...

this termination of employment was completely legal.

And if the plaintiff admits to her fault regarding the matter...

we're prepared to reach an offer to a settlement.

Plaintiff, your response?

I'd like to hear their offer.

As an act of generosity...

we're prepared to pay what is in accordance with the terms of the VSP.

Let's take it!

No way! I want my job back!

Come on! Let's take it.

This is best that the defendant can do.

What?

Why do I have to admit doing something wrong?

Counselor!

What's wrong with you again?

I apologize, but could you excuse us for a moment?

Wait...

Forget about fairness, just get as much money as possible.

No, you consider this winning, but it isn't for me.

But be realistic, they're fully armed and ready for this.

How can we actually win this case?

It's what you do, right! Aren't you a lawyer?

Come on, my specialty's M&A, selling and buying companies...

This kind of petty case is not what I'm good at, got it?

M&A? You can't be serious!

Even an idiot wouldn't trust you with a case like that!

I'm sorry...

Suk-ki! I have a surprise! I found the ashtray!

Oh, really?

Where are you right now? I gotta run.

Wait In-chol, hold on, please.

Do whatever you want. Find another lawyer.

Where are you?

No problem, I'll be there in a minute, just gotta use the restroom.

Got any coins?

Miss, can we get some change?

Hey honey, what's going on?

This thing ate our money.

What is this?

Shit, all gone!

Calm down. Suk-ki, snap out of it!

You crazy?

Wake up! You son of a bitch!

How could you just lie there ruining my life?

You son of a bitch!

Who are you?

I'm a friend of his.

What a surprise! He actually has a friend?

- Excuse me... - What?

Take this...

It was in his bag, you should take it with you.

Happy birthday to you, Mr. SHIN. With love, Jin-young

Take that! And get that lowlife bum out of here too!

Who are you?

You have the nerve to pretend not to know your own landlord?

Oh please, don't do this! I'll pay you in full next week.

You know I'm a lawyer right?

I can make money.

I don't give a shit! You're broke, and that's all that matters.

- What a worthless piece of shit! - You don't understand!

I'm working on several major cases right now!

See? Look at this list of clients! You want me to prove it?

Absolutely.

- I'm serious. I'll call. - Go ahead!

I'm not kidding.

Hello. Hello!

Hello?

Hello, Jin-young, this is Suk-ki, the lawyer.

What?

Suk-ki?

Are you... really the lawyer, Suk-ki?

Yeah, I am.

Oh god, Suk-ki!

I can't believe this. I'm so happy that you're back!

Where are you? Are you still in the hospital?

Hello, Jin-young...

Yes?

Sorry but I'm actually the other Suk-ki.

You know, the Suk-ki who rides a bike.

Here, cheers.

I'm sorry about embarrassing you like that.

No problem, never mind.

I'm just wondering why you thought I was him.

He's the only one who knows that phone number.

I don't get it. Can't your friends reach you with that number?

No, actually, I have another phone for my daily use, and...

the number you called is just for him, no one else.

To be honest, I liked him a lot.

I'm such an idiot!

It was all one-sided.

Except for... a brief moment, when I thought that he liked me.

You won't believe...

how much I've been waiting for that phone to ring.

It's like if that phone rings, my wish for love will come true.

Can I ask you... why you loved him so much?

Well, it's sort of a long list of things.

He plays the trumpet really well and...

he's intelligent, confident... a great athlete...

and, I love the way he smells.

I can talk about him all night.

Is he really that lovable and nice of a guy?

It's hard to believe.

There's only one thing I don't like about him...

The fact that he didn't like me.

Jin-young...

Yeah?

If by any chance he comes...

back to life... What would you do?

That's a tough question.

Never mind, let's just drink

and enjoy the night, alright?

Cheers. Cheers.

Let's have breakfast.

How did you make all this in such a short time?

Well, actually it's my birthday, so...

I'd have prepared a gift. I'm sorry!

Never mind, just enjoy your breakfast.

Thanks.

The two of you coming in together like this?

- We were at my house... - We met in front of the office and...

At your house? In front of the office? Where?

It's none of your business where I come to work from!

Just get us some coffee.

Hello, Mr. SHIN.

You've been a great help to us. All without making much money.

And since the accident, we know you've been struggling to get by.

So, it isn't much, but we want you to have this.

We're all here for you!

- That's right! - Mr. SHIN, "fighting"!

You're a great person.

Am I crying? That's not like me! What's going on?

At first I thought of you...

as a cold hearted and greedy guy.

But you're actually such a wonderful person, with so many kind friends.

I'm happy.

And I'm happy that you have friends to help you out.

Hey, Jin-young...!

- Do you have plans for tonight? - No.

Then, why don't we...

Can I take you out for dinner as a birthday present?

You don't need to do this.

I'd kill me if I didn't offer something to someone who's been there for me.

So please don't say no.

Are you all right?

Yes.

Jin-young!

Let's go.

Sorry sir, but...

this table is reserved. If you don't mind, how about that table?

Can I take your order?

Um... well... l'd like...

Jin-young... Would you mind if I ordered for you?

No, please.

Mussel Gratin and Caesar Salad...

Soft shell crab over frisee, Italian style salmon steak, and Aloe Canape.

Okay?

Uh, yes and... for wine?

Chateau L'Angelus, please.

This really a different side of you! It's surprising.

Well, thanks, but it's nothing.

Jin-young, wait a moment.

I'd like to play this for Jin-young on her birthday.

I really enjoyed dinner and everything...

You can always play for me when you feel better next time, alright?

It's yours for 500,000 won. It's used, but a good buy.

I can see that, but...

I'll just come back later.

If it's something you really want, take it. Just pay me a little a time.

Are you serious?

I couldn't, you know.

I can tell there's something special between you and this trumpet.

I did it!

- I did it! - Hey! Keep it down!

Are you sure that the tray is here?

Absolutely. I collected every single ashtray from all over the country.

You'll be impressed with my work.

There was a lot more than we thought!

Hello!

The two of you came in the office together the other day, right?

- Yes? - Right.

I'm asking you if the two of you spent the night together?

Well... it's not what you think.

We were discussing the case over a few drinks and...

Mr. SHIN fell asleep after about half bottle of wine...

What?

You let him drink alcohol? He can't drink at all!

Do you realize what you did to him?

I'm sorry. I didn't know.

So, I prepared some soup for breakfast the next morning.

You mean you really slept...

There's no limit to what you can do, is there?

No, don'tjump to conclusions.

Excuse me.

Hello? My mom?

Jin-young, what's wrong?

My mom... fainted.

I'll give you a ride.

In-chol, let me use your car?

Hey, Suk-ki. What the...?

Mom...

- Mom! - Visiting hours are over right now.

What happened?

She went into shock due to a side effect from an injection.

But don't worry, she's recovering fine.

What a relief! I should move

you to a hospital closer to me.

I'm fine.

So, are you single?

- What did she say? - She said you're handsome.

Oh, well...

- Are you wealthy? - Oh, mom!

What's the problem?

She said you're very handsome.

Oh, well, you're very pretty.

Are you flattered with compliment?

Well, I used to hear it all the time.

But it's been a while, so...

Oh, you're such a liar!

How embarrassing!

- Stop laughing! - I'm sorry.

Watching the birds flying up in the sky...

I want to fly together with them.

As freely as the birds in the sky. I want to fly in the sky.

Watching the birds flying up in the sky...

If you don't want to... l'll stop.

What's wrong?

I don't want to! I'm sorry.

I shouldn't have.

Jin-young, I don't know how to act around you from tomorrow.

Just as if nothing happened.

What?

Just act as if nothing happened!

What... do you mean?

Pull over.

Tell me what you mean.

Just stop the car. Don't make me repeat myself.

I'm sorry.

It sounds weird, but I felt like

you were someone else.

Someone else?

I'm... really sorry.

You're a loser Suk-ki. The worst piece of shit!

Who the hell is this?

Hey, give me my car back!

Where did the keys go?

Next, case number 2004-84.

Call the defense's first witness.

We will show that the dismissal was fair and legal in every respect.

I'd like to call the Personnel Manger PARK to the stand.

What was the reason you heard from OH Dong-mi for Ms. SUH's absence?

- It was because of a man. - A man?

It was about the company's lawyer,

who was unfortunately put in a coma because of an accident.

She said SUH was absent because of shock from hearing about the news.

What was the lawyer and the plaintiff's relationship?

- SUH flirted with him constantly and... - Objection!

The witness's statements are based only

on assumption and could be misleading.

Sustained. Stick to the facts of the case.

Well then, let me call upon a witness who can corroborate the story.

What is your relation to the hospitalized Suk-ki?

We were co-workers.

Do you know who that woman is?

Sure, I've seen her at the front desk, and...

on the day of the accident, I saw her with Suk-ki at a bar.

They were at a bar, alone?

Does that mean that they were seeing each other?

I don't think so. He said he was just going to take her out for that one night.

She was obsessed with him, and showed up with a birthday gift that day.

Doesn't common sense tell you...

that it's unreasonable for a girl to show up out of blue...

and expect to get intimate afterjust one date?

Yes, Mr. SHIN said she was out of her mind...

and that he'd be careful not to get hurt by her.

According to the testimony of the witness...

we can conclude that the plaintiff and SHIN never...

shared an intimate relationship and...

that her excuse for being absent is invalid.

Jin-young! Jin-young!

Jin-young!

Jin-young! Jin-young!

Please look at me. Jin-young!

You can move on.

He's a bastard.

Just forget about that son of a bitch! Don't let it get you down!

Don't give up.

That piece of shit will go to hell!

Jin-young, look.

I'm SHIN Suk-ki.

I, I... am so sorry.

Call me whatever you want!

I hate myself as much as you do!

Forgive me, or I can't ever forgive myself.

Suk-ki, come on, wake up!

Open your eyes, I'm here!

Come on!

If you knew you had asthma, why did you go out in the rain like that?

Jin-young... are you all right?

Yeah, I'm okay.

Suk-ki...

Do you remember what you asked me the other day at my house...

if... if ever... he comes to, what would I do?

Yeah.

I'll give you an answer. I'll never see him again.

I can't believe that you actually have a CD like that.

But are you all right with it? Chairman YOM is your uncle.

Somebody has got to stop him before he crosses the line.

The old Suk-ki and I've been involved with this for a long time.

I'd be relieved if you disclose the truth about the unfair dismissal.

But all this lead you to get in trouble as you violate the confidentiality code.

The real me is lying in a hospital bed and...

But you might come back at any time.

The right thing needs to be done. That's all that matters.

You've really changed!

Have I?

Listen, I want out of that corporation.

What'd you think about "The Suk-ki & In-chol law firm"?

How are you going to get that CD? All of your things are in storage.

I'll figure it out.

Thanks, In-chol.

Honey, I'm home!

I'm going take you to heaven, like never before!

Who is that?

Hey, it's me.

Oh, sorry. I thought this was my house.

I'm sorry about that.

Do you always break into your own house like that? '

I'm used to opening doors that way. It's what I'm cut out for!

Just a habit. Good night.

Hey.

Do the two of you work on the same jobs all the time?

Absolutely, teamwork is the decisive factor.

Oh, I see.

You don't know how happy I am to be able to return your kindness.

You've been of great help to us and...

Until today we haven't been able to find a way to repay you.

That's okay.

Which room is it again?

That way.

Alright.

Be careful. The floor might be rigged with an alarm.

Make sure to hold the rope 50 cm above the floor.

Stop just before that.

Got it?

No problem, you go first.

How high is 50 cm anyway?

I'm already on the floor you idiot!

Voila!

I don't know how to thank you.

Unbelievable! How is it that a simple locksmith can do all this?

You know how it is!

Who's there?

Oh man, what's that smell? What the hell do they got in here?

Everything's gonna be fine, alright?

Thanks.

- Hi. - How are you?

Case number 2004-84, wrongful termination of employment.

Cross examination of the first witness.

Defense counsel, do you have a witness?

Yes, sir.

You're the CEO of Dae-yang Group and

it is in the process of merging with McDowell. Is this correct?

I think so.

Please say yes or no.

You got what I meant, then don't tell me how to say!

Witness, behave yourself!

This is not a case about the Daeyang's acquisition of McDowell...

nor McDowell's acquisition of Daeyang Corp.

But each company will have 50% of the shares of the new entity, right?

Yes.

If it's not an asset transfer due to mismanagement of the business...

when the two companies merge...

the new entity must employ all the previous employees, correct?

Yes.

Then why is it that you made a secret agreement with McDowell...

to layoff a significant number of your current employees?

Objection!

The plaintiff is questioning the witness presenting any relevant evidence.

Furthermore, the merger is irrelevant to this case...

It's absolutely relevant!

And here's proof.

You do appreciate how hard Mr. SHIN has worked to get us here!

We'll be in trouble if things are delayed a single minute!

We should just use subsidiaries to avoid any problems.

Play the staff. Tell'em that if they resign now, they can getjobs there...

under the same employment terms as now.

And order the subsidiaries to take them on and then fire them.

The subsidiaries aren't in a position to say no, right?

Take measures to move on SHIN's plan.

If anyone gives us a hard time... put them on the suspension list.

And fire everyone who causes any trouble.

Yes, sir!

On paper, the terminations have to be recorded as voluntary, Okay?

Plaintiff, your closing statement please.

Dae-yang coldly and without sympathy...

drove its staff out, all for personal interests.

And the plaintiff is clearly one of those innocent victims,

as both the timing and the method of her release show.

Therefore it is undeniable that this termination of employment was...

a part of an illegal staff downsizing scheme.

Your honor, the verdict you reach is...

not only responsible for Ms. SUH Jin-young...

but will effect all those employees victimized by this wrongdoing.

So I ask that your verdict be fair and honest.

Thank you, Mr. SHIN.

And lastly...

I'd like to add a personal statement regarding Ms. SUH Jin-young.

On behalf of Mr. SHIN Suk-ki, now in a coma, I'd like to say I'm sorry.

SUH Jin-young has been hurt and ridiculed...

because of the horrible actions of this worthless man...

Please accept my sincere apology...

for having mistreated your pure feelings of love.

And I'd also like the counselor of the defendant...

to also apologize for his rude behavior.

SUH Jin-young is a truly... wonderful, beautiful person.

Counselor!

Your honor?

What do you think you're doing?

Oh, yes?

Sorry, your honor.

As the verdict for Case number 2004-84, for the cancellation of the dismissal of plaintiff...

I hereby order the defendant to award the plaintiff SUH Jin-young the following.

First, to overturn the plaintiff's dismissal on April 11, 2004.

Second, to reinstate the plaintiff's employment no later than Nov 30.

Oh, Mr. SHIN...

Congratulations!

Congratulations!

We helped work on your daughter's court case.

I'm a friend of SHIN, congratulations.

You know what? You look so beautiful.

You can't imagine how much I envy you, girl.

Just make sure you don't miss the bouquet.

Even if I do, I don't have a man anyway.

SUH Jin-young!

Thank you for coming.

If you ever do anything to hurt him... I won'tjust sit back and watch it happen!

What nerve, sweeping him away after I took care of him for 3 years.

Let's welcome the bridegroom.

Is this...

Is this... what caused everything?

It's because of this... that I got this damn body, right?

Are you saying that the ashtray is magical?

That's interesting!

It's true, you know it!

How could you pretend not to know anything?

Well, I don't know what you're talking about, but...

If you really think it ruined your life... then put another coin in and see...

if you'll really go back to being who you used to be.

Butjust one thing. What'll happen to the girl?

Dong-mi, take care of mom.

She must feel sad and horrible.

And you?

I'll go home soon.

You asked me the other day what I'd do...

if he came back.

We don't know how to thank you for all you've done for us...

Until today we haven't had a chance to repay you...

You're the one and only Suk-ki, you don't know how to give up.

If you think it ruined your life, then put a coin in.

Then you'll see if it's really true.

Jin-young, calm down!

You're terrible. Do you know how worried I was?

Did you think... I ran away or something?

Once again, I've reached a cross roads

in my life, to make a choice.

I'd be lying if I said I don't have

a lingering desire to be who I used to be.

But this is my life, and I gotta go for it.
