[Episode 12]

I need to sell my car that's not even a year old.

I need 24 payments left. Not now, take it in a month.

It's up to 20,000 kilometers. Just give me its market value.

Okay.

Our tracking on Noh Young Jin's account was suspended.

Prosecutor General Lee probably...

I stopped it.

Jung Hwan...

If we trace Noh Young Jin's account, something will turn up.

Pay under the table, bribe, unfair reward...

It's not enough to trace his account.

We should abide by the law once in a while as prosecutors.

Lee Tae Joon is getting support from the media right now.

He's coming!

Sir, presidential aides are a holy ground.

There is a rumor that provoking the president's aide is for your own political goal.

I am a prosecutor.

To a prosecutor, the people are the holy ground.

['People are the holy ground' Determined to investigate]

We have to make Noh Young Jin someone not trustworthy.

- He has to fall... - He won't fall from a slingshot.

One shot, one kill.

I want to see... the card you're holding.

I showed it to you seven years ago.

The list of enlistment fraud.

You asked me how I obtained it.

I told you the truth, because I trusted you as a friend.

How did the broker open his mouth?

Ho Sung... tell me.

Jung Hwan did a favor... for the broker illegally.

Were you that brazen to ask to see my card again?

Are you waiting until Lee Tae Joon crosses the bridge he can't return?

Maybe.

Your plan... Can I trust you on it?

Probably.

[Prosecutor Choi Yeon Jin]

Chief of Staff Kim Sung Chan... Send him a summons.

For now, summon him as a witness.

To the papers and TVs

lay the groundwork and tell them

that his status could change to a suspect during investigation.

Over 70 percent of people on the poll said Chief of Staff should accept the summons.

Our people... want to see the powerful getting mocked in front of the Prosecutor's Office.

Whoever it may be.

[Prosecutor Park Jung Hwan]

This is Park Jung Hwan.

I'd like to meet with Chief of Staff Kim Sung Chan.

All the media is focused on Chief of Staff.

If you meet him in times like this... there will be a problem.

Jung Hwan... you can tell me...

Just run an errand for me.

And get paid for the errand from Chief of Staff.

Sir... this is Yoon Ji Sook.

This morning, President visited a shanty town and checked on the elderly in the wintertime.

Mr. President said that he'd find a way to take care of the elderly in slums.

It's been a few months since her hearing aids broke.

Grandma.

I'll borrow this room for a minute and get her new hearing aids.

I heard you got something on Noh Young Jin who commented about my daughter's case.

I heard you have the power to recommend and dismiss

ministers, vice ministers and high ranking officials.

Can you make Lee Tae Joon resign?

I need two things.

Evidence that Noh Young Jin can't be trusted.

What's the second thing?

Evidence that Lee Tae Joon controlled Noh Young Jin from behind.

If I had both hands

I'd have cooked, eaten and washed dishes.

Why would I borrow someone else's hand?

I'll let you borrow my left hand.

Knock on Mr. President's door with your right hand.

[Statement on Chair Noh Young Jin's sexual harrassment]

[Statements from 5 people, including teaching assistants and students]

Water. You should drink water.

Intensify punishment on sexual crimes.

All of us from women's groups agree on it.

Yes. I also have two daughters.

They take after me, so they are beautiful.

The law is created in Yeoido

but we'll give the maximum sentence to sex crime offenders within the law.

Sir.

It was suggested that Chair Noh Young Jin of Japanese Literature at Woorim University

had been sexually harrassing women

including his teaching assistants and graduate students.

Five victims of sexual harrassment had a press conference at the women's rights center

and claimed that he harrassed them at the research labs and team dinners

with suggestions of approving their theses and finding them lecturor positions.

Also, the victims said this case reflect the absurd aspect of Korean society

and requested Chair Noh's immediate resignation and legal punishment.

Chair Noh Young Jin has not made any public comment regarding the allegation as of yet.

The university was about to reprimand Chair Noh for sexual harrassment.

So he raised a unfair appointment of the professor to cover up his issue.

That's the news article.

Another article speculates that you are behind Chair Noh Young Jin...

Noh Young Jin?

Who is he?

Chair Noh Young Jin went to the same high school with you.

We had over 70 students in a homeroom when I was in school.

We had over 1000 students in the same class.

We should have over 10,000 people from the same school.

Noh Young Jin...

I think I've heard of him.

Your mom was an actress?

Have her teach Prosecutor General some acting.

Please review.

It's your resignation speech.

Jung Hwan, Prosecutor General's term is two years.

It's set by the law.

How many stepped down after completing the term?

Sir, you have a call from Chief of Staff.

My goodness, sir...

I'll punish that chair guy severely...

Get ready for the prosecutor general's resignation ceremony.

Sir.

That's what Mr. President wants.

Since you read exactly what I wrote for you for your inauguration...

I'm sure you'll also like your resignation speech, Prosecutor General.

Mr. Lee Tae Joon.

[Arrest Warrant]

We're arresting you for suspcion of accepting bribes as the nominee for the prosecutor general.

Take him away.

Jung Hwan... I am the Prosecutor General.

At one point.

Is Insa-dong still far away?

Speaker of the Assembly... can't stand someone who's late.

He called just now.

He canceled the lunch appointment.

I saved so many people who were drowning...

But now I'm drowning...

no one's holding my hand.

Which way should we head?

There is... nowhere to go.

There is too much beef in the seaweed soup.

Eat a lot, Jung Hwan.

Mom, our trip to Japan...

I talked with Mom. Japan is too far, Jung Hwan.

Let's go somewhere close for a few days.

Let's go to a hot spring.

I hear there is a hot spring that's good for your knee pain.

Ye Rin... I'll scrub for you when we go to a hot spring.

I'll scrub your back.

Eat.

Ye Rin, have the omelet rolls. Grandma made it really delicious.

You were assigned to the enlistment fraud case?

Yes, Mother.

I plan to meet with Chief Justice and ask him to change the department.

Don't do that, Sang Young.

There are people who talk behind our back about how you didn't serve in the military.

If you say that you won't take the enlistment case

they might get suspicious.

Mother, I can't sit on the judge's seat and lead a trial on the enlistment fraud case.

Follow the law, strictly.

Mother.

Sang Young...

you are a prosecutor.

You have to try hundreds and thousands of cases in the future.

Pay attention to the weak ones and stand on the side of the deserted in those trials.

Let's pay back this debt that way, Sang Young.

You look like a good person with that on.

My wife went to the U.S. to see the kids...

I came out because I didn't want to stay in the empty house...

but the whole world seems empty.

I hear food in Anyang prison is good.

Is it edible?

When I think about how you opened my drawer...

I hate you.

We had a lot of meals together for 20 years, right?

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

It looks like I won't be able to take care of your family.

Once I take off my prosecutor's robe...

there will be more than a few who want to bite me off.

Sir, did something happen?

Why did you bring Jung Hwan to me seven years ago and let this happen?

Jung Hwan... tripped me.

I'm even whining to you.

How did this happen?

I'll get up now.

Meet with Minister Yoon Ji Sook.

Once I fall, it's her world. Why would she hold my hand?

Give your dream to Minister Yoon Ji Sook.

I should serve Yoon Ji Sook?

Is that what you mean?

An opportunity will come.

If it doesn't come, I'll create an opportunity.

Kang Jae...

don't you hate me?

I do.

But I shared too many meals, drinks and dreams with you for 20 years.

As I get older, tears just come up.

Give me a glass of water.

You didn't answer my calls, so I thought something big happened...

So I ran over here.

I thought I'd see you at the resignation ceremony.

I'm on my way to the Blue House.

I heard you'd be discussing who you'd pick as the prosecutor general replacement.

Give me your recommendation if you know someone good.

How about Lee Tae Joon?

Fury from the Blue House is high.

I didn't get to eat much when I was growing up.

If there is any food in front of me

even if it's too big to put it in my mouth

I just open my mouth and go for it.

People called me a hero and clapped for me...

so I took a bite and saw if the Blue House would get in my mouth.

If I move out in this cold winter...

I wouldn't have a place to lie down. What should I do?

I didn't prepare thermal underwear. All I have is ear muffs.

Get the car ready. We're leaving in three minutes.

Yes, I got it.

It's the chip used by the North Korean intelligence team at the NIS.

I'll save statements from the enlistment fraud broker and Chairman Kim Sang Min together.

I hear it's a chip that can't be deleted or burnt in fire.

If the chip gets exposed, I will lose a lot.

You will lose everything.

Foolish threat...

The Blue House that I couldn't bite off because my mouth is too small...

I will give it to you.

The dream is supposed to work in opposite.

Last night, I had a dream.

I've never seen it rain so much.

It poured so much.

I was wondering what I should do.

Out of nowhere, you appeared and let me get under a big umbrella.

So I didn't even get a drop of rain.

But do you know where we walked into?

The Blue House.

I will put an umbrella over you and escort you to the Blue House.

Accomplishments I had at the Prosecutor's Office...

I'll give them to you.

On your way to the Blue House...

I'll clear out the rocks for you.

Minister...

I promise you.

Have you had a dog as a pet?

The one who holds the leash is the owner.

Minister, you're holding the leash on my neck now.

Minister, we have to make Lee Tae Joon resign.

You and I have come this far to get Lee Tae Joon.

What would change?

Just because Lee Tae Joon steps down.

Minister!

Presidents who passed through the Blue House had accomplishments and faults.

Everyone dreamed of righteous society, prosperous world.

And everyone failed.

Ho Sung...

I'll try to create that world.

I should be able to do a lot in five years.

Protect the weak, wipe tears from the common people and recreate the system.

I'll pay back my choice that way, Ho Sung.

You want to let Prosecutor General Lee Tae Joon remain in his position?

Mr. President had an order on that.

It's important to follow the order.

Advising Mr. President so that he can make a wise decision is... more important.

Prosecutor General Lee aimed at the Blue House.

That sword is broken.

The administration that embraced the Prosecutor General who aimed at it...

People's support will rise, right?

Prosecutor General Lee will pay attention to even your breathing sound from now on.

The Prosecutor's Office led by him...

You'll have a lot of use for it.

What kind of the Prosecutor's Office do you want, sir?

All the managers and executives of the Supreme Prosecutor's Office

should gather in front of the Prosecutor General's office.

Let me repeat.

All the managers and executives of the Supreme Prosecutor's Office

should gather in front of the Prosecutor General's office.

I'm sorry that our Prosecutor's Office caused trouble for the Blue House.

It's fine. If any suspicion exists, it warrants investigation.

There is a rumor of the Prosecutor General change...

but the term for the Prosecutor General is set by the law.

Prosecutor General.

Don't be disturbed by the rumor

and under Lee Tae Joon's system

focus on investigation with no holy grounds just like you have done.

Yes, sir.

All the prosecutors of Anti-Corruption Division, come to the meeting room.

Now.

Suspicion on the unfair appointment as professor for Chief of Staff's daughter...

We'll start from the beginning again.

We'll divide in three teams.

We'll wrap up the professor appointment case.

Ho Sung.

It's an order from the Prosecutor General.

That's also what the Minister of Justice wants.

We'll focus on public affairs for the next two months.

Don't touch other cases.

This is a special order from the Blue House.

We're done.

How many times did you hear... Minister Yoon Ji Sook's excuse?

I'll make sure it doesn't become Lee Tae Joon's world.

I won't let him seize the Prosecutor's Office.

That's how I take responsibility as the Minister of Justice.

She used to say so...

So why did she stop Lee Tae Joon from resigning?

Let me at least hear the new excuse.

Jung Hwan...

on the day you held Lee Tae Joon's hand seven years ago...

you decided how you'd live.

I decided that today.

I'm going with Minister Yoon Ji Sook... to the end.

I have a lot to do.

That's taken care of...

Get out. You need to take care of the people's problems.

Mom, let's delay our trip next week for a few days.

I'm sorry, Mom.

The man called my father... Assemblyman Choi Chul Han.

Was he a six-term assemblyman?

I thought, 'how could he be an assemblyman?'

But he was the decent side.

Well, Lee Tae Joon is the Prosecutor General and Yoon Ji Sook is the Minister of Justice.

It'll be tough to live as an angel.

I should work harder at it, too.

- Let's go back to Ocean Capital... - Investigation on Ocean Capital is closed.

Lee Tae Joon finished dry-cleaning it.

I wonder if you'd find a speck of dirt.

Chief of Staff Kim Sung Chan's daughter...

Reinvestigate the professor appointment...

They'll send her to the U.S. as a visiting professor.

Time will clean up everything.

I wonder if investigation can happen when you can't summon the suspect?

This is the first time I see... that you're blocked by a wall.

We have no more cases or clues to investigate Lee Tae Joon or Yoon Ji Sook.

That's the fact.

I'd have said to give up if it's anyone else...

but I know you.

The days you've lived... and your remaining days as well.

I'll wait for your call.

Jung Hwan...

Happy birthday.

- Right here. - Thanks.

Prosecutor Shin, hundreds, thousands cases come up everyday...

but you leave behind all the hot cases.

Why do you want to dig through the enlistment fraud case from seven years ago?

- I'm getting a birthday present. - A birthday present?

Dad.

Look at this.

I didn't have money, Dad...

so I bought the smallest one.

If Aunt sees it, she'll eat it.

Grandma bought this much of vitamins.

Grandma said she'll live to 100 years old.

Mom, you should live until you're 100 years old.

Tell me when you meet me much later.

How Ye Rin grew up...

and what kind of a guy Ye Rin's husband is.

You should tell me, Mom.

You have to live to 100 years old, too.

I'll be 70 years old then.

I'll be a grandma!

Dad, blow the candles.

- Let's watch it a little longer, Ye Rin. - Okay.

The cake is too small, isn't it? I'll buy a humongous one next year, Dad.

Happy birthday.

It's a birthday present.

It's too hard for me to carry it alone.

Let's carry it together, Jung Hwan.

He's the enlistment broker.

Based on internal investigation seven years ago

Ho Sung and you chased him for three months and arrested him.

That case has cooled off now.

The broker has left and we can't figure out where he is.

What do you have?

A way to get Minister Yoon Ji Sook other than this.

Judge Lee Sang Young of Seoul District Court, Minister Yoon Ji Sook's son.

He's in charge of the enlistment fraud case.

Minister Yoon Ji Sook said she wanted me as a daughter-in-law.

If it wasn't for you...

maybe with this guy Lee Sang Young...

You know... I have no eye for people.

I also hope that Minister Yoon Ji Sook is the person you think she is.

Ha Gyung, I'm leaving.

You'll remain.

Stay with Ye Rin.

I'll destroy the ship with the Minister and Prosecutor General.

No, I'll do it.

For myself.

It's a violation of the Attorney-at-law Act.

Start your investigation.

Making a deal with a suspect to solve a case...

can be dealt by disciplining within the Prosecutor's Office.

Your case on the violation of the Attorney-at-law Act last month...

Didn't you arrest him?

If you become lenient on yourself and your family, Ha Gyung...

would you be able to question other suspects' crimes in the interrogation room?

- Ma'am... - Ha Gyung, there is only one law.

To you and to your husband.

Is there one law?

To me and to him as well?

If you leave like this...

how would I get through the remaining time?

You're not around...

Yoon Ji Sook, Lee Tae Joon...

They got on the same ship.

Once Minister Yoon Ji Sook's enlistment fraud cause is exposed

both of them will sink.

I want to show you before you leave.

This is my gift. I hope you like it, Jung Hwan.

[Prosecutor Choi Yeon Jin]

Minister, I'd run over there if you called me. Why did you come all the way here?

Should I escort you to the Blue House by bus or by subway?

I'll set up a plan as to where you should transfer...

I'll come up with the plan.

Prime Minister just resigned due to a chronic illness.

Our people want to pay little taxes and enjoy lots of social welfare.

It's inconsistent.

Just like that, they also want a progressive, but a stable leader.

I'm wearing a dress called 'progressive.'

I'd like to wear a coat called 'stable.'

Where should I buy that coat?

Why haven't we had any prime minister who became president in our country?

As long as I have an experience of managing state affairs as the prime minister...

I think the people will see me as a stable leader.

Before entering the Blue House

you'll transfer at the prime minister's office? Is that what you mean?

Please work hard, General Prosecutor.

The broker is not around.

Where should we begin?

The doctor.

Once the broker gets a client

a doctor issues a false diagnosis.

The broker left.

And his client is the judge on the case.

There is the doctor who issued the false diagnosis...

[Dr. Seo Yong Chul] We found him.

Seo Yong Chul.

Where is that doctor?

I'll check if the broker had any accomplice.

Where is Dr. Seo Yong Chul, Ha Gyung?

I found him...

but he can't remember or speak.

He has the late stage dementia.

It'll be hard for him to hang on for another few days.

Did you say that there is a chance he'll gain consciousness before his passing?

Yes. It's called 'hightened level of consciousness.'

Sometimes a dementia patient has a clear consciousness right before passing.

For about 30 minutes? Or an hour maximum?

A father who's 70 years old

and you are divorced with a 10-year-old son.

I don't know who, but the one who marries you will be more like a maid, not a wife.

[Seo Dong Hoon]

I don't talk to Hyun Seon.

Were you also ashamed of your father?

We're not close enough have tea.

Let's change the oil.

The father, an orthopedic doctor, made money by issuing false diagnoses...

and when a medical accident occurred

the son didn't want to become a doctor like his father.

So he admitted to his mistake, took off his white coat and wore a mechanic suit.

I heard he'll be lucid before his passing.

I really want to hear something from him.

As for oil, 5000 kilometer for two months is enough.

- So I'll go with a regular one. - No...

Go with a high-end synthetic oil.

I'm leaving, but the car remains.

I should consider the one who'll drive this car.

Basic verification documents on the prime minister nominees were submitted just now.

Give some serious thought and recommend your nominees please.

Nominees' assets, real estate

capability of executing policies

and feasibilty of approval from the Blue House are reviewed.

Then the final nominees are selected.

Mr. President makes the final decision.

All the nominees mentioned in the media

are waiting for a call from the Blue House.

It'll be a call to ask if the person will accept to be a nominee for the prime minister.

[Chief of Staff]

This is Chief of Staff. Would you accept to be a nominee for the prime minister?

My family is very much against it.

I'll decline a public office.

You do business with foreign countries and get rebates. It happens.

Take good care of your business.

Don't even look at what's going on in the country's management.

Why bother? It's a headache!

Enjoy.

Majority Party Chairman Jeon Yoo Chul and me... Two of us are remaining.

Jeez, don't worry about Jeon Yoo Chul and leave him alone.

The relationship between the majority and the minority parties is complicated.

He'll leave him in Yeoido.

Change the battery and wait for a call from the Blue House.

Prime Minister Yoon Ji Sook.

Jung Hwan...

I saw your medical record today.

It's worse.

It'll be hard to last even for a month.

March 2nd is Ye Rin's first day of school.

- Until then... - Let's get you hospitalized.

Get treated for pain and slow down the speed...

maybe it's possible to get through until the first day of school.

I can't stay in bed, Hyun Seon.

Even if you hang on until the first day of school...

maybe from pain...

I have one pain reliever left.

As long as I can stand until the first day of school...

I'll get through with this then.

What do you think of the guy you were introduced today?

His family has two buildings in Cheongdam-dong.

For me, Hyun Seon...

I hope you stand in a place where others can't ignore...

and live your life not ignoring other people.

Both you and Ye Rin.

[Majority Leader Jeon Yoo Chul, strong candidate for the prime minister]

Economy is tough...

so I guess he's planning to put someone with an economic connection.

Chairman Jeon Yoo Chul is an expert in economy.

Minister, this is what the Blue House wants...

Why don't we put off the moving plan to the prime minister's residence until next time?

You came to work in the Prosecutor General's car today?

If it wasn't for me, you would have gone to prison in a police car.

My Minister, you talk really scary.

Make sure my picture is on the paper tomorrow.

With the same headline for the article.

I don't think there is anything on Jeon Yoo Chul.

Chairman Jeon Yoo Chul's son, Jeon Gyung Min...

I believe his name was on the enlistment fraud list.

It's the list of enlistment fraud.

A few are circled, including Yoon Ji Sook's son.

Leave them out.

Minister...

Chairman Jeon Yoo Chul...

He's been a big help in getting me pass the confirmation hearing and sit here.

You should be grateful to him.

Are you telling me to have Jeon Gyung Min stand on trial where your son is a judge?

Conversation and negotiation are important in democracy.

Resolve it by talking, Prosecutor General.

This... is an order.

This is how I smiled at her.

Sir, an opportunity will come.

Once I became a prosecutor, my first boss was Yoon Ji Sook.

Yoon Ji Sook's father wrote the Criminal Code

and her grandfather wrote the Civil Code.

The dean of my law school was her uncle.

Jeez, her family spread a 12-panel screen with law.

Kang Jae...

I didn't live this life... to become a butler for a lady of a rich family.

It's risky to stand against Yoon Ji Sook right now.

Yes. Since I'm already carrying the lady's palanquin...

I should at least carry it to the prime minister's residence.

Kang Jae... do you remember the promise I made to you?

Kang Jae...

even if you fool me and betray me...

I'll forgive you once.

Do you also remember the promise that you made me?

An opportunity will come.

If it doesn't come, I'll create an opportunity.

To create an opportunity...

you should come out.

I'm... under investigation with a charge of receiving sponsorship as a prosecutor.

- Right now... - I'll draw the painting.

You'll get to eat at home in a few days.

Get yourself ready.

Yes.

Yoon Ji Sook, that flower became a weed so fast.

You're the best negotiator in Yeoido.

Let's make a deal.

You still live in Yeongdeungpo, right?

Then you should go to work in Yeoido.

Don't look over the prime minister's residence.

The residence is too far.

Let's solve it through discussion.

I can't talk too long with you.

Sir, I will make sure to return the favor.

This is Yoon Ji Sook.

This is Chief of Staff.

You've been chosen as the nominee for the next prime minister.

Would you accept it?

It's too sudden...

I'll discuss with my family...

I'll also think about if I can handle it.

Please give me time until tomorrow morning, sir.

I asked people close the broker.

And I reviewed the case at the time.

There seems to be no accomplice.

It became simple.

Dr. Seo Yong Chul who issued false diagnoses...

Without his confession...

We might have to stop the investigation here.

I'll dig up people close to the broker again.

One... more time.

[Seo Dong Hoon]

His consciousness returned.

He'll pass away in an hour... may be within 30 minutes.

Come quickly.

Admit all your faults...

Say the truth before you leave.

I want to remember you... as a brave man.

Tell the prosecutor to come quickly.

He's on his way, Father.

Are you okay?

Seo Yong Chul...

What about Mr. Seo Yong Chul?

He passed away 10 minutes ago.

[Seo Yong Chul]

Minister of Justice Yoon Ji Sook is chosen as the next prime minister.

The Blue House found her experience in state affairs and the people's trust on her

make her to be fit to carry out the duties as the prime minister.

I'll do my best to make it a country that wipes tears of people

on the foundation of the government by law.

Nominee Yoon Ji Sook's confirmation hearing will be scheduled for next week.

Please tell us how you feel.

What's the reason for accepting the prime minister position?

Subtitles by DramaFever

- You've changed a lot. - I have to change to change the world.

- Please help me. - Stay here. I'll call you when I need you.

I'll untie the leash on your neck.

There is a document on the false diagnosis. Jung Hwan took it.

Was his daughter's name Ye Rin?

Dad!

Let's get Yoon Ji Sook off from the palanquin with the enlistment fraud.

I'll do a thorough investigation and punish severely.

Good-bye.

My Sang Young is the only son.

- There is only one law. - Jung Hwan!

To me and to you as well.
