THIS IS A WORK OF FICTION BASED IN A DYSTOPIAN KOREA

ALL CHARACTERS, ORGANIZATIONS AND EVENTS ARE FICTITIOUS

Why did the police arrest Yo-han?

What is going on?

Why can't you tell me? What's this about?

Did Yo-han really do that to the cathedral?

Was it Yo-han who killed my parents?

No, Elijah. That's not it.

It's all my fault.

I was an idiot to be deceived by those bastards,

and told the police that Yo-han killed Su-hyeon.

What?

I'll set it right somehow.

I promise to bring Yo-han back.

Even if it costs my life.

Why?

Why did you?

Why did you?

I'm sorry, Elijah.

Why did you?

Ma'am.

Please stay with Elijah.

Please.

What about you, Master Ga-on?

Geez, you rushed in here in the middle of the night for this?

So in other words, you're saying that Judge Kang

has nothing to do with Inspector Yoon Su-hyeon's death,

and that everything had been ordered

by Jung Seon-a, the Chairwoman of the SRF.

Yes.

All right, I understood you very well.

Though all of this is very interesting,

as you know, we can't act on it without enough evidence.

Wait.

I had falsely accused Kang Yo-han.

Oh, sure.

-So it's a false accusation? -Yes.

I reported him with malicious intent.

After seeing him hush the trial scandal by manipulating the public opinion,

I thought I needed to do whatever I can to stop him.

So I forged evidence with my own hands and falsely reported him.

Arrest me.

Judge Kim.

Don't get all worked up.

Why not go home for tonight, get a good night's sleep,

and think this over?

Why drag it on when it's already a done deal?

I see you've already been ordered from above.

If you keep this up, I'll report you for dereliction of duty, Detective.

And take this to the media.

Feel free to do whatever you want.

Oh, right. By the way, you do realize

we are under a state of emergency, don't you?

Reckless reporting without the government's permission

is considered obstruction of emergency operations.

Well, good luck with that.

I doubt any media company will be insane enough to do that.

Kang Yo-han!

It's Kang Yo-han!

I missed you! Welcome, you bastard!

You will never get out of here.

Why? Because I'll kill you!

That's right, I'll kill you!

This place will be your grave!

Breaking news.

Judge Kang Yo-han of the Department of Live Court Show was

arrested last night for abetment of murder,

and is currently detained at the Central Detention Center.

It has been revealed that the victim of his conspiracy is

Inspector Yoon Su-hyeon at the Police Agency…

No way.

Judge Kang, who was arrested without a warrant,

enjoyed strong support from the public

as the presiding judge of the Department of Live Court Show.

Therefore, the suspicions of contract killing

is expected to draw strong criticisms from the public.

It was you, Chief Justice, who nominated Kang Yo-han

as the presiding judge of the Live Court Show.

A criminal who rigged trials and abetted murder.

But Justice Min, how was I supposed to know?

Besides, it wasn't my idea to nominate Kang Yo-han--

Now you'll evade responsibilities, too?

Look, Justice Min.

I suggest you make a decision that won't put the judicature

to further shame.

You're here.

I thought you'd retired from the Supreme Court.

Someone has to try and save the situation,

and I am not someone to dodge the responsibilities.

Just how shameless are you?

Did you

really kill Su-hyeon?

To entrap Kang Yo-han?

How can you call yourself human?

I didn't know Su-hyeon would die.

I didn't know Chairwoman Jung Seon-a would go to such lengths.

One, two, three.

A justice of the Supreme Court?

I know you're not someone who's obsessed with titles.

But the times call for someone like you, Professor.

We're seeing someone like President Heo in politics

and Judge Kang Yo-han presiding over the court, aren't we?

Yes, they're all the same.

Frauds who mislead the public.

This Live Court Show that they're planning is a dangerous idea.

What they're doing is demeaning trials to a mere street show.

Whilst I'm serving Master Seo Jeong-hak,

I also agree we need to stop this movement, no matter what.

Suppose we can do something discreetly about it.

I, at the foundation, and you, at the Supreme Court.

You're extremely brave.

But we need someone to step forward.

Once you are appointed justice, the first thing you must do

is to find a watchdog for Kang Yo-han.

Watchdog?

Professor.

Sorry, I mean "Justice Min."

Are you telling me to be Judas?

We'll need that someone, won't we?

That someone who'll remain firm in this crazy storm.

I'm begging you.

There is no easy justice in the mortal world.

I'd only wanted to stop Kang Yo-han,

who was ruining this world.

Kang Yo-han's supporters are attacking me

and leaking personal information about my family.

I can't put up with it anymore.

I'll do whatever I can

to bring him down.

Did you kill Su-hyeon?

That wasn't in our discussion!

Su-hyeon was like a daughter to me.

So…

you want to pull out now?

I thought you'd said you wanted to stop Kang Yo-han,

using whatever means.

You cannot turn back what's happened.

Besides, you're just a step away.

Don't you want to be remembered in history

as the great chief justice who ended this madness?

Well?

Justice Min.

Someone needed to stop Kang Yo-han even if it meant becoming a monster.

You can condemn me if you want

because history will judge me.

You disgusting hypocrite!

Call security.

How could you? How could you kill Su-hyeon?

How?

How could you kill Su-hyeon?

Tell me. Min Jeong-ho, tell me!

-Tell me! -Justice Min.

Tell me.

Let go! Min Jeong-ho, tell me!

Tell me!

How could you?

Min Jeong-ho!

Judge Kim, what was that on the news?

It's not true, is it? It wasn't Judge Kang, right?

No. It's a trap set up by the foundation.

I knew it.

What should I do? I'll help. We'll need to save Judge Kang, won't we?

Well, look at this.

So they say you'll meet your enemy at a dead end.

Do you know what trouble you got me into?

Did you manage to convince the warden?

Yes, he's completely intimidated, so he will do as you say.

Is it true the orders came from Minister Cha?

MINISTER CHA ORDERED DO YEONG-CHUN SWAP

Yes, the orders were from Minister Cha Gyeong-hui.

Is it true you were bribed or blackmailed?

I'm sorry.

However, I could not withstand her blackmail.

Thanks to you, I was demoted and ended up here.

Isn't it a stroke of luck in the midst of misfortune

to be put in charge of a suspect of a major case?

Enough of your arrogance.

Hey you, do you think you're still a judge?

Now you're nothing but a rat in my grasp.

Did you hear me?

You sure are something, Chairwoman Jung.

When did you drag Min Jeong-ho over to our side?

-You're the best! -The best!

My gosh.

All right.

-Chairwoman Jung. -Sit.

Chairwoman Jung, you sure are an amazing storyteller.

I mean, remember how even Jesus was backstabbed

by his most beloved disciple?

He really got done.

I bet that's what Kang Yo-han is going through in prison right now.

Abetting the murder of a police officer…

Kang Yo-han is now out of the game.

But is there really a need to take Kang Yo-han to court?

What do you mean?

Well, now that he's come down from the stage,

wouldn't it make everyone happy

if he were to make a quick, quiet exit?

That's just my thinking, anyway.

Don't you think you have too much on your mind?

They say it's a sign you're nearing your grave.

I'm sorry, ma'am.

I should have known to just trust that you'll do a good job.

I'm sorry. Let me go to the bathroom.

Hold it right there!

Why did you say that when she has it all under control?

Exactly!

Chairwoman Jung is not an amateur, you know.

Mr. Heo Jung-se sure is quick to adapt, isn't he?

He's become a whole different person with his new role.

Yes.

However…

he's adapted almost too quickly.

What?

Not only that, those money-grubbing weasels

were playing along with him.

I may have underestimated Heo Jung-se.

Look into it. I'm sure there's something.

That man, Heo Jung-se…

I remember him being obsessed with increasing the number of migrants.

Check the Dream Base village

to see whether there are any missing numbers

and whether he's been sneaking them out elsewhere.

Thank you for delaying my husband's plan.

Oh, you mean the weekend farm?

Yes. You've done a great job convincing your husbands too.

It was so close.

Don't mention it. We're always for where the money is.

Since we're on the topic, how about we pay a visit?

Sounds good.

I wonder whether our crops are growing well.

All right, I'll make arrangements.

I understand you fell into a trap,

but how could you accuse him of being a murderer?

I know I'm shameless to ask this, but please help me this once.

I need to save Judge Kang, and it's impossible without your help.

Well…

I'm not sure whether we can trust you anymore.

But there's no time.

Do you suppose they'll just let him be until his trial commences?

Who knows what they'll do next?

Our only way is to expose something big that'll tie their hands down.

With all the attention on them, they will lay low for the time being.

Hold on.

-By "something big," you mean… -The truth inside the Dream Base village.

I'm sure it's horrific in there. That's what we need to expose.

But that's impossible.

-That place is being guarded by soldiers. -I'll go in there alone.

Where is the most heavily guarded area?

That's probably where they want to hide the most.

That would be the Dream Base hospital.

To be honest with you,

there may be a way in, but no way out.

Will you still do it?

Yes. Just let me in.

All right. Let's say you get lucky and manage to record something,

but there's just no way to divulge it.

The media is extremely wary of the government,

and all media platforms including social media have been blocked.

This country…

is not a free state anymore.

I have something in mind for that.

What do you have in mind?

I need you to get something for me.

Elijah.

There's something I want to tell you.

A few days ago, I met someone who used to work at the cathedral.

The truth is, the fire started from the power distribution board

due to old electrical wiring.

It was a simple accident, and nobody's fault.

Yet Yo-han led you to suspect him on purpose.

Didn't you say you'd come after me if you were to ever walk again?

Take one step at a time. Slowly.

He purposely cancelled the MoU for you to see

and said things to provoke you.

I couldn't care less about those I killed.

If I really killed them, that is.

Because…

he saw you having too much of a hard time after losing your parents.

You wouldn't eat or sleep, and would wither away, day by day.

Yo-han had wanted you to live

with the strength to hate him.

But Elijah, even if you misunderstood him,

it's not your fault.

Because that's what Yo-han had wanted for himself.

You're not at fault, Elijah.

Just be good to him once you see him again.

Because Yo-han will come back.

It won't take long, I promise.

So eat, even just a little.

How would he feel to see you unwell once he's returned?

Yo-han!

You've been sentenced to death

and you can be executed at any minute if that's what you wish.

Please help…

Is that all you got?

Help!

DREAM BASE FOODS

FRAGILE

CLINICAL TRIAL THREE IN PROGRESS

Oh, my head…

Ms. Han So-yun. What happened?

It's me, Kim Ga-on.

Judge Kim, how did you get in here?

Don't worry.

Mr. President is here!

Mr. President is here!

I'll be back soon. Hold on.

I'd like to commend the efforts

of our medical staff.

A clinical trial for the newest vaccine commissioned by the EU is underway.

The total number of participants is 3,620,

and the number of deaths from side effects so far is 182.

Total 182? That's not bad.

Share the data with them

and let me know if there are any countries behind on payments.

Oh, and we also received additional requests

from many countries including Russia and Japan.

We'll have to expand our farm then.

With many countries in the race for a vaccine,

there's an explosive demand for clinical trials, Mr. President.

If Seoul isn't enough,

we'll have to branch out to Busan, Daegu and Gwangju.

Since there's not a drop of oil produced from this land,

it's human resources that we have to rely on.

I've been telling you time and time again

that it's the people that matter the most, have I not?

All these people here are all money.

Those clinical trials?

Do you know how much they are bringing in per head? It's no joke!

And if they should die, we harvest everything we can from them!

Oh, and their hair, blood, and other by-products…

We take everything and export them too.

Waste?

There's nothing that goes to waste!

I didn't know you were such a genius businessman, Mr. President.

-You kept it from us! -And you tried to hog this golden goose?

Honestly, I'm disappointed!

I was going to share this with you in due time.

But do we have to let Seon-a in this too?

I'm not saying we should overthrow her.

It won't hurt to have one less mouth to feed.

It's not like she's particularly useful anymore.

Both Gyeong-hui and Seon-a.

Honestly, I just hate women who are strong-minded!

She's too smart for nothing, that former maid.

Right? Why not take this chance to get rid of her too?

And let's send someone to the detention center

to take care of Kang Yo-han for good before he's up to something again.

Yes, Mr. President!

Oh, come on.

Did you like that?

-Wait for me! -We should get going too.

So-yun, let's get out of here.

What are you doing?

I received orders to check her vitals.

Sure…

Let's go.

Wait.

Yes?

Don't be so nervous, Judge Kim.

I've actually been waiting for someone to come here.

And it's not just me either.

All the staff are practically held captive,

and our cellphones confiscated.

There are still people in here who are right-minded.

I mean, how could this be?

How could the country do such a thing to its people?

It's a dead body.

All organs were harvested and it's ready for the incinerator.

We'll help you.

We'll help you two get out of here, so please tell the world.

About what's going on in here.

Yes, I promise.

Are you all right?

Yes, Judge Kim. Are you all right?

Yes. I managed to save Ms. Han So-yun too. I was lucky.

Did you get what I asked you?

Is that really the only way?

Maybe we should look for a reporter who's brave enough to--

That would be a risk. We have no time for that.

All right.

CLINICAL TRIAL THREE IN PROGRESS

You're a pretty little thing. How old are you?

Eighteen.

What have I done?

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry…

I'm sorry…

Judge Kim.

So? Did you find a way?

I have a favor to ask you, Judge Oh.

Just tell me and I'll do it.

Tomorrow is Chief Justice Min's inauguration, right?

Is that all you need me to do?

Yes, that's all I ask.

All right.

But what are you planning to do at the inauguration?

BAD NEWS, JUDGE OH TURN ON THE TV NOW

Breaking news.

Judge Kang Yo-han, who was arrested for abetting murder, has died.

It is said that Judge Kang, who was being detained

at the Central Detention Center, was attacked by an assailant.

Judge Kang Yo-han was the first…

JUDGE KANG YO-HAN STABBED TO DEATH BY UNIDENTIFIED ASSAILANT

Seon-a.

It's all right.

I'm okay.

He's someone I finished with my own hands, anyway.

It's for the better.

I guess this really is the end then.

We have the "The End" up on the screen,

the end credits rolling,

and finally, the lights come on.

It's time to rise up and applaud.

Gosh, looks like that Kang Yo-han came to grow on me.

I think I'll be thinking of him from time to time, Mr. President.

Should we hold a memorial rite for him every year?

With candles and incense burning on the cake.

We'll make meat cakes, and japchae too…

Is something wrong? Or something troubling you?

Pardon?

No way.

I was just thinking about all the trouble he'd put me through.

We'd get so fed up, didn't we?

Yes, it was awfully tiring.

So it's time we send him off.

So I was thinking…

How about we arrange a little something?

What is it this time?

An event to celebrate and remember Kang Yo-han.

Isn't Chief Justice Min's inauguration ceremony tomorrow?

Yes, and?

The stage is all yours now, Mr. President.

So how about a toast to celebrate with the key members of the foundation?

Right in that asshole's courtroom who dared to challenge you,

Mr. President.

Geez, President Min.

Are you nearing your grave? This is unlike you.

Actually, not a bad idea.

Oh, and don't forget Jung Seon-a.

Call her and make sure she comes.

You know, I just can't get a good night's sleep because of her.

I mean, I understand you two. But she just…

I mean, how could she?

We'll send her off at where her lover used to play his court games.

CHAIRWOMAN JUNG SEON-A

So I'm suggesting we have a drink, just the three of us.

The stage is all yours now, Chairwoman Jung.

Isn't it time we have a female president?

All right. I'll see you at the Supreme Court then.

All right.

Jae-hui.

Yes, Seon-a?

Get me a pistol.

One that'll fit right into my purse.

But why?

It looks like I'll be the next president.

So it's time I protect myself.

Good work until now.

The age of madness is past us.

Now it is time to restore justice that has fallen.

And I vow to become the Chief Justice

who rebuilds our fallen judiciary

starting with its foundation stone.

Thank you.

Chief Justice, may we ask why you chose to opt

for a press conference and not an official ceremony?

We are still in a state of emergency, are we not?

I think this is no time to focus on my personal honor.

I hope you will understand.

-Thank you. -What are your next steps?

Chief Justice.

-Congratulations. -Hey, Judge Oh.

Thank you.

During the press conference just now,

Chairwoman Jung Seon-a asked me to relay to you

that she'd like to meet with you in private.

Really?

She said she'll be waiting for you at your old office since it's empty.

All right.

Yes, Judge Kim. I just told him.

Thank you, Judge Oh.

-Now please leave the building. -What? Leave the building?

-Why? -I'll explain later.

But for now, please do as I ask.

All right.

Wow, this place has amazing interiors.

Wow, what killer views.

It's like you're all at my feet.

Is that why that Kang Yo-han

was such an arrogant asshole?

Gosh! Chairwoman Jung, seeing you up there is amazing.

You just shine.

You just ooze this aura!

I agree.

Why don't we hold all of our important events here?

Our ladies know something about stage setting,

being from elite families.

-Of course, we're the experts. -Oh, I know nothing.

Honey!

-Goodness. -You can't even climb up here?

Help.

Ga-on.

Ga-on, why are you doing this?

Come with me, Professor.

Ga-on…

There were no media companies conscientious enough to report the truth.

But it'll be different if it's something sensational that's worth money.

Like the story of the new Chief Justice who died with his old mentee

in a terrorist attack on his inauguration day.

Once the bomb goes off,

all major media companies will receive an email from me.

About the truth behind the Dream Base project.

They won't be able to ignore it this time.

Consider this

your atonement for Su-hyeon's death.

If you still have any bit of conscience left.

Am I too late?

It was a long trip from hell.

Judge Kang.

You're alive.

Thank goodness.

What happened?

Now you're nothing but a rat in my grasp. Did you hear me?

So, Warden.

How was the weather in the Bahamas?

What are you on about?

The 12 billion you grubbed over these past 30 years

through all kinds of crimes and corruption.

I know you stashed it away in your secret account in the Bahamas

while on your trip last summer.

How did you…

Sit.

I said, sit down.

You think it's a coincidence you ended up here without being fired?

You're my insurance

in case things turned sour.

Go ahead and check

because that money is not there anymore.

Judge Kang, please help.

That money is my everything.

What do you want?

What do I need to do?

Your specialty.

-Pardon? -Switching prisoners.

But you're such a celebrity that there's no way not to get busted.

Who says it needs to be a secret forever?

Just 24 hours.

I need just 24 hours, no more and no less. Then I'll give your money back to you.

Do you mean it?

That was a cheeky thing that you did, Warden.

No, sir. It wasn't me.

It was that guy from the Blue House.

Although he wasn't part of the plan, good timing.

Now you have a body to switch me with.

Right?

Yes.

You mean you had a plan?

-To escape, all on your own? -No way.

I'm sorry, Judge Kim.

Mr. Go?

I'm sorry I couldn't tell you beforehand.

I wasn't sure whether I could trust you 100%.

So you got out with the help of that jerk who sneaked out Do Yeong-chun?

Then did you give him his money back too?

I did.

But with love.

WARDEN'S OFFICE

THANK YOU FOR SPONSORING US

THANK YOU FOR YOUR DONATION

Kang Yo-han, that bastard!

What will you do now?

He'll need to pay for his sin.

A life for a life.

But please let me deal with Min Jeong-ho.

Let's go.

Cheers!

-Cheers! -Cheers!

-That's too high! -He's such a tease.

He's a funny one.

What?

What is it?

What is this?

Is there an event today?

Did someone prepare this?

Something's not right.

Not me.

Hello, everyone.

Here's to Kang Yo-han, who's up in heaven.

Isn't this nice?

I'm filled with emotions to see everyone here in one place.

I've missed you too, Mr. Kang.

-Thanks for your heart, President Park. -Oh what?

So he was alive.

Is this a live show?

But he's dead!

What prank are you trying to pull?

Prank? I'm disappointed to hear you say that

when this is a sacred trial.

Trial? What's he talking about?

You blocked the newspapers, the media and the internet too,

but there's something you missed.

Hold on.

The Dike app!

Now let's begin the live show.

My fellow Koreans, your final court is now in session.

THE FINAL COURT IS NOW IN SESSION

LIVE COURT SHOW THE FINAL COURT IS NOW IN SESSION

Let me introduce today's participants.

Park Du-man, President of People Media

Pi Hyang-mi, CFO of Human Media Broadcasting Network.

-No way. -No…

Kim Sang-suk, Director of Minbo Group.

Min Yong-sik, President of Minbo Group.

Do Yeon-jeong, First Lady of the Republic of Korea.

Heo Jung-se, President of the Republic of Korea.

What? Me too?

These are the people who control this country.

Honey.

-Why is there no signal? -Honey, what's going on?

There's no signal.

This is an act of terror against the head of state!

A crime!

Yes, that's right. It's a crime. I'm a criminal.

But what about you? Aren't you a criminal too?

Mr. President?

FOOTAGE INSIDE DREAM BASE HOSPITAL

FOOTAGE INSIDE DREAM BASE HOSPITAL

Fellow citizens, this is the truth behind the Dream Base project.

You've been scheming this heinous act behind me, haven't you?

You knew?

You psycho wench…

Isn't it astounding?

Using the virus that doesn't even exist as an excuse

to drag people away, selling them for human experiments.

Only one creative psycho could have come up with that.

-This is all manipulated. -I truly admire you, Mr. President.

You're all being deceived. Hold on.

My fellow Koreans whom I deeply love and respect,

all these videos are manipulated! This is an anti-government movement

to try and overthrow the current government…

I've been telling you time and time again

that it's the people that matter the most, have I not?

All these people here are all money.

Those clinical trials?

Do you know how much they are bringing in per head? It's no joke!

And if they should die, we harvest everything we can from them!

Oh, and their hair, blood, and other by-products…

We take everything and export them too.

Waste? There's nothing that goes to waste!

You look great on camera.

No wonder you were an actor.

And these are the people who died at the hands of Jung Seon-a,

Chairwoman of the Social Responsibility Foundation.

Driven by her ambition,

and in order to attack me,

she killed those who were innocent.

And Min Jeong-ho, who was appointed Chief Justice today

is a hypocrite who acted as a cat's paw of Jung Seon-a for his own good.

He betrayed Inspector Yoon Su-hyeon who was like a daughter to him,

and joined hands with Jung Seon-a who killed Yoon.

Isn't it appalling?

Now go…

and live forever in hell.

Your name will go down in history

just as you wished.

My fellow citizens,

are they guilty?

YOUR VOTE HAS BEEN ENTERED

INNOCENT, GUILTY

Damn it!

But that's not fair! We're innocent.

I guess we'll need a fair punishment for them.

What is that?

Is that here?

-What is that? -What is that, Honey?

The moment you try and escape from here,

this bomb will go off.

-He says it's a bomb! -Go check.

Honey!

It's really in here!

Fellow citizens, now you be the judge.

I remember our president had polled ten million votes.

The moment the number of votes counted on Dike app reaches that number,

you'll see a most grandiose firework show.

To celebrate the victory of democracy.

NUMBER OF PARTICIPANTS

NUMBER OF PARTICIPANTS

I'll be leaving now.

Where to, Judge Kang?

To the stage.

The left door, facing the law school.

The left door, facing the law school.

Kang Yo-han, that bastard!

Honey.

It won't open?

It won't.

Honey.

Oh, my…

-Kang Yo-han! -Oh, my.

Take one more step,

and I'll blow this place up.

My fellow citizens,

the footages of the Dream Base Hospital you just saw

were filmed by Judge Kim Ga-on, who risked his life to do so.

Once all of this is over,

Judge Kim will testify the truth.

As for the villains here,

they will be going to hell with me.

No…

Honey!

Judge Kang. You ought to spare me.

Didn't I do as you ordered?

I brought them all here, didn't I?

-Hello? -It's been a long time, President Min.

How did you call me?

There's no time, so listen up. I need you to do something for me.

On the day of Min Jeong-ho's inauguration,

have everyone at the foundation gather in the courtroom.

What?

What crazy nonsense--

Otherwise you'll die.

I have the evidence that you laid

your hands on the SRF's funds to save Minbo from bankruptcy.

Don't lie to me.

If you don't believe me, open your desk drawer.

I put a copy in there.

You dared to rob from them.

Help me.

-If they find out, I'm dead! -If you want to live, do as I say.

Right now!

You trashy bastard…

You crazy bastard!

Let go of me!

How dare you!

You psycho clown.

You need to spare me.

You need to spare me!

All right, I'll at least give you a chance since you traded with me.

-The door's open. -The door's open!

Wouldn't you say

this is a deja vu?

Just like that time at the cathedral ten years ago?

Now run for your life.

I'll take one, first-come, first-served.

I'll take one, first-come, first-served.

No!

Yo-han…

Yi-sak.

Honey!

-Hey, you bastard! -Wait… Just be quiet!

Wait, Kang Yo-han.

How about we strike a deal?

Quiet, all of you! Attention!

Kang Yo-han.

You just have to save me, all right?

I'm the Chief of State! It'll be a win-win deal for us!

The rest are businessmen and just women!

But I'm different from them.

What will this country do without me?

I'm the Republic of Korea!

I'm an artist and a leader.

So please spare me this once.

And this country too! Please!

I… I'm the king, aren't I?

Please! I'm the king!

I'm the king, aren't I?

Damn it, he's awfully loud.

Shoot… Shoot him!

Shoot!

-Shoot him! -Please shoot!

Shoot him!

You can do it, shoot him.

Shoot him!

So, I guess it comes down to us in the end.

Come with me, Seon-a.

Goodbye, Young Master.

Shit, just fuck this all.

It's all right, Seon-a.

It's okay.

Did you know?

I really did love you, Young Master.

Please spare us, Judge Kang.

Please spare us!

Please spare us. Please…

We're sorry.

Judge Kang.

Don't move.

Why did you come here?

You can't.

Are you going to leave Elijah to join them?

With those trashy bastards?

I can't help it.

Once the show is over, actors need to disappear from the stage.

NUMBER OF PARTICIPANTS

I'm coming with you then.

You will be a hero.

As for the devil,

one is enough.

Judge Kang.

Judge Kang!

Judge Kang!

-Judge Kang! Kang Yo-han! -It's dangerous!

-Judge Kang. -We're sorry.

Don't do it!

Kang Yo-han!

No!

Judge Kim, are you all right?

The ambulance is here.

Let's go. Do you think you can stand up?

Elijah.

Elijah?

How about this one?

Are you all right?

You thought I'd really topple it, did you?

BLUEPRINT

SECURE EMERGENCY EXIT HOW MUCH TIME IS AVAILABLE?

MUST CHECKLIST

CHECK DOUBLE LOCKS CHECK DISTANCE

What is concentrated is also easily toppled.

Once the show is over, the magician must disappear.

I'm done cleaning up,

and I believe there's now work for you to do.

Ma'am.

Master Yo-han dropped by.

What happened? And where is Elijah?

You see…

Young Master!

Young Master, you were alive!

-Were you worried about me? -Of course, do you need to ask?

Listen.

-You're fired as of today. -Pardon?

Leave this house and live your life.

There won't be anyone here anymore.

What do you mean, exactly?

Young Master?

-Elijah is in her room, is she? -Yes.

Young Master.

Elijah.

Yo-han.

Are you out of prison now?

Are you okay?

Yes, you don't need to worry anymore. I'm fine.

We'll be going somewhere safe now.

Somewhere safe?

Should I show you where?

It's a rehabilitation clinic in Switzerland.

I've been making contributions towards finding a way for you to walk.

Should we go here?

Just the two of us?

Yo-han.

So he's alive.

Thank goodness.

But it looks like I'll be busier from now on.

Pardon?

Young Master set up a health foods e-commerce business for me,

telling me it's my severance pay.

He told me to sell lots of healthy and not so tasty foods.

Is he dissing me or what?

Are you really going back to your hometown?

Yes, it'll be unfair to let just Seoul have a taste of my charisma.

-That's true. -I volunteered for the Youth Court.

I thought maybe I could lecture and help troublemakers.

-I thought I'd be pretty good at it. -I'm sure you'll be.

As always.

Thank you for all your work.

Same to you, too.

Call me if you're ever in the area.

PUBLIC HEARING ON JUDICIAL REFORMS FOLLOWING THE KANG YO-HAN CASE

We, the new ruling party,

vow to never repeat the mistakes made by the Heo Jung-se government.

In order to restore the rule of law,

I've invited all of you here today.

First and foremost, let's give a big hand to

Judge Kim Ga-on, our national hero!

Judge Kim, what can we possibly do to prevent

the disgraceful case of Kang Yo-han?

Was that a disgraceful case?

Kang Yo-han is not a hero, but neither is he a criminal.

Do you really think our people raved about him

because they are foolish and are easily swayed?

Is it because you're still young? You sure are hot-blooded.

In other words, you're suggesting we need to address the root cause.

There is no quick fix.

First, we need to announce a measure

that has an impact to appease the citizens.

I agree, Assemblyman.

The Prosecution proposes the rights of judicial appointment

to the Ministry of Justice to reinforce the nomination process

and to filter out possible terrorists like Kang Yo-han--

That's nonsense!

It'll be violating our judicial independence.

Assemblyman, rather than that,

I propose launching a new Department of Live Court Show

with Judge Kim Ga-on who's popular as the new presiding--

If you have time for this…

Pardon?

Shouldn't we rather focus on what we need to do?

I apologize.

Please excuse my arrogance,

but I must say this in front of all my mentors. Please forgive me.

We are all here

to do our duties bestowed upon us by our people, who is the sovereign.

We must ensure no one is wronged,

and that no one sheds tears of blood.

We must also ensure those who make others cry tears of blood is rightfully punished.

Is that not our duty?

That is why I'm in my judge's robe.

If we fail to neglect our duties, someone out there will suffer.

And their suffering

is what breeds monsters.

There is a reason

why people are enraged.

Those are great words.

We need our young talents to be firm and resolute.

I respect your views.

Now that we've heard from Judge Kim,

how about we now start discussing the practical matters, Chairman?

Yes, let's do that.

You just mentioned the nomination process…

It's still the same.

Nothing has changed after all.

What should I do now

for a world that doesn't need Yo-han?

Do a good job.

Otherwise I'll be back.

Judge Kang.

Kang Yo-han!

THANK YOU TO PARK HYOUNG-SOO FOR HIS SPECIAL APPEARANCE

THANK YOU FOR WATCHING THE DEVIL JUDGE
