JB Corporation recruitment
assessment score sheet
00:35.869 --> 00:38.372
HWANG TAE-SEONG: NOT SELECTED
00:40.415 --> 00:41.832
APPLICANT: HWANG TAE-SEONG
What?
00:41.833 --> 00:42.708
He passed?
00:42.709 --> 00:43.543
Soon,
00:44.127 --> 00:46.088
JEON HEUNG-WOO
Chief Justice Jeon Heung-woo will resign.
00:46.813 --> 00:49.508
The next chief justice candidate
is Hwang Nam-yong,
00:49.716 --> 00:52.010
HWANG NAM-YONG
who is Hwang Tae-seong's father.
00:52.261 --> 00:53.357
So,
00:54.137 --> 00:56.223
you want to trap
the chief justice candidate
00:57.558 --> 00:59.892
with his son's job fraud?
00:59.893 --> 01:02.019
It was 18 years ago
when Hwang Nam-yong
01:02.020 --> 01:03.813
took bribes for a trial
01:03.814 --> 01:06.149
and turned the victim
into the perpetrator.
01:07.401 --> 01:09.903
He was the presiding judge back then.
01:10.487 --> 01:13.365
He accepted the testimony
from S Construction unilaterally.
01:14.658 --> 01:17.578
Just because the testimony was consistent.
01:17.744 --> 01:19.954
Then, what happened?
01:19.955 --> 01:21.205
What about the verdict?
01:21.206 --> 01:21.968
Imprisonment
01:22.708 --> 01:24.417
for one year and six months.
01:24.418 --> 01:25.836
Imprisonment for one year and six months.
01:26.587 --> 01:28.130
That's just insane.
01:30.841 --> 01:31.675
But,
01:32.759 --> 01:34.928
how do you know about something
from 18 years ago?
01:35.929 --> 01:38.389
Back then, you were only...
01:38.390 --> 01:39.182
A senior in high school.
01:40.809 --> 01:42.769
The victim who was wrongfully imprisoned
01:44.062 --> 01:44.896
was my father.
01:47.983 --> 01:48.731
Judge Lee.
01:49.276 --> 01:51.528
The person who bribed him at that trial
01:52.029 --> 01:53.905
was Jang Tae-sik from S Construction.
01:54.448 --> 01:54.990
Right now,
01:56.033 --> 01:57.701
he's the CEO of S Shopping.
01:58.201 --> 02:00.329
Hwang Nam-yong and his two associates
02:00.871 --> 02:02.247
are still going strong.
02:03.498 --> 02:04.291
Oh...
02:05.709 --> 02:07.294
Hwang Nam-yong, that guy.
02:07.878 --> 02:11.131
He shouldn't even wear a judge's robe.
02:14.343 --> 02:15.594
But Judge Lee,
02:18.430 --> 02:20.515
who exactly are you?
02:20.766 --> 02:22.643
- Me?
- Yes.
02:23.685 --> 02:26.313
Seoul Central District Court
Judge Lee Han-young.
02:26.480 --> 02:29.358
EPISODE 9
02:36.615 --> 02:37.324
What is it?
02:37.824 --> 02:39.075
Not meeting your friend today, are you?
02:39.076 --> 02:40.952
- You're not busy?
- I'm busy.
02:41.370 --> 02:43.412
But I still have to meet the right people.
02:43.413 --> 02:44.997
I'm a bit busy too.
02:44.998 --> 02:46.541
Oh, really?
02:47.334 --> 02:48.417
Then I'll see you next time.
02:48.418 --> 02:50.045
Hey, wait a second.
02:50.712 --> 02:51.129
Come on.
02:51.672 --> 02:54.215
You said that no matter how busy you are,
you still need to meet the right people.
02:54.216 --> 02:55.050
What did you say?
02:55.509 --> 02:56.551
Let's meet.
03:00.055 --> 03:00.643
Well,
03:02.265 --> 03:03.148
it's not bad.
03:03.850 --> 03:05.769
You liked it
in your past life too.
03:06.436 --> 03:07.938
I came here with a friend once.
03:10.732 --> 03:12.274
Say "friend" one more time.
03:12.275 --> 03:13.402
I swear!
03:14.403 --> 03:16.822
Want to make someone
the chief justice at Haenal Law Firm?
03:18.198 --> 03:20.784
To have Haenal Law Firm,
you need to keep building your reputation.
03:21.410 --> 03:24.496
I'll make sure you get Haenal Law Firm.
03:28.041 --> 03:29.668
You're beyond ridiculous.
03:31.628 --> 03:33.379
I'll manage to get
Haenal Law Firm on my own,
03:33.380 --> 03:37.217
but who are you planning
to make chief justice?
03:41.179 --> 03:43.264
So you're saying
I should make Baek Yi-seok
03:43.265 --> 03:44.913
the Supreme Court chief justice?
03:51.940 --> 03:53.048
Why would I do that?
03:54.443 --> 03:58.280
Because that way,
you can have Baek Yi-seok.
04:03.118 --> 04:04.244
In his past life,
Yu Seon-cheol
04:04.578 --> 04:07.538
offered the highest salary
04:07.539 --> 04:10.249
to recruit Baek Yi-seok
as a legal advisor
04:10.250 --> 04:12.252
but ultimately failed.
04:13.420 --> 04:16.089
Haenal Law Firm's legal advisor,
Baek Yi-seok.
04:16.631 --> 04:19.009
Isn't that the title you want to create?
04:26.558 --> 04:29.436
Chief Justice Jeon Heung-woo
hasn't even gone six months in his term.
04:30.479 --> 04:32.980
Just because judges are
commenting on CourtNet,
04:32.981 --> 04:34.608
do you think he will
even consider resigning?
04:35.275 --> 04:38.195
Chief Justice Jeon Heung-woo
won't last a month.
04:38.612 --> 04:40.739
What nonsense are you talking about?
04:48.622 --> 04:49.664
How can you be so sure?
04:54.461 --> 04:56.755
JEON HEUNG-WOO
05:16.733 --> 05:17.858
Justice Hwang Nam-yong
fires a shot at Jeon Heung-woo
05:17.859 --> 05:19.277
Justice Hwang Nam-yong...
05:20.403 --> 05:23.030
This guy is not one to jump in recklessly.
05:23.031 --> 05:24.221
What is he doing?
05:25.367 --> 05:27.536
Because he's aiming to be
the next chief justice.
05:31.957 --> 05:35.000
Hwang Nam-yong
is overflowing with ambition.
05:35.001 --> 05:38.129
And you do know that the chief justice
needs the president's nomination, right?
05:38.839 --> 05:40.465
What a ridiculous thing to say.
05:40.799 --> 05:42.091
What if Chief Justice Kang Sin-jin
05:42.092 --> 05:44.386
of Seoul Central District Court
supports him?
05:47.722 --> 05:48.139
What?
05:48.473 --> 05:49.599
Would that still be impossible?
05:53.311 --> 05:53.853
Do you know
05:55.981 --> 05:57.857
Chief Justice Kang Sin-jin?
05:58.483 --> 05:59.361
As much as necessary.
06:05.073 --> 06:06.468
Then you must know well.
06:08.702 --> 06:10.327
If I push Chief Justice Baek Yi-seok
06:10.328 --> 06:12.789
I'll have to fight
with Chief Justice Kang Shin-jin.
06:16.751 --> 06:19.254
I can't gamble with Haenal Law Firm.
06:19.921 --> 06:23.091
There won't be any conflict
between you and Chief Kang Sin-jin.
06:23.675 --> 06:26.344
I'll deal with Justice Hwang Nam-yong.
06:26.928 --> 06:28.930
You just need to get
the president's recommendation.
06:30.181 --> 06:31.432
This is the only chance
06:31.433 --> 06:33.810
to hunt Baek Yi-seok,
the white tiger of the judiciary.
06:36.897 --> 06:37.582
Wow.
06:37.938 --> 06:40.316
Is it true that my dad wants Baek Yi-seok?
06:40.317 --> 06:42.527
How did you find out?
I didn't even know that.
06:44.487 --> 06:46.781
Because you're from Haenal Law Firm.
06:47.824 --> 06:48.450
What?
06:57.250 --> 06:58.527
But we just had steak...
06:59.127 --> 07:01.754
I didn't get to finish since you suddenly
brought up the chief justice.
07:01.755 --> 07:02.566
You ate it all...
07:03.548 --> 07:05.299
You're the one who wanted
to meet first, right?
07:05.300 --> 07:06.300
And you didn't let me eat.
07:06.301 --> 07:08.845
Isn't that breach of duty at work?
07:09.179 --> 07:10.733
- At work?
- Then why are we even meeting?
07:11.681 --> 07:12.641
A-are we
07:14.017 --> 07:16.144
meeting just for fun?
07:18.647 --> 07:21.857
No, it's to meet
the daughter of Haenal Law Firm
07:21.858 --> 07:24.235
and the judge as son-in-law, right?
07:36.915 --> 07:38.082
This is the only chance
07:38.083 --> 07:40.418
to hunt Baek Yi-seok,
the white tiger of the judiciary.
07:40.585 --> 07:42.252
Having the prosecutor general
07:42.253 --> 07:45.256
and the chief justice as legal advisors.
07:46.049 --> 07:48.718
I might end up getting sick from this.
07:56.393 --> 07:57.227
Aren't you leaving?
07:59.771 --> 08:00.981
Have a seat.
08:08.738 --> 08:11.700
What if Baek Yi-seok
comes to our firm?
08:12.409 --> 08:13.268
As if.
08:13.618 --> 08:15.328
Even if you offer him millions,
it doesn't move him.
08:15.745 --> 08:18.123
If we put him in the chief justice seat,
08:19.958 --> 08:21.418
would he still decline?
08:23.169 --> 08:23.878
Father.
08:39.102 --> 08:40.978
Chief Seo Ji-ho.
08:40.979 --> 08:42.063
Are you busy?
08:43.314 --> 08:45.607
Isn't it about time we met?
08:45.608 --> 08:46.817
Yes, sir.
08:46.818 --> 08:48.153
We should meet up.
08:48.737 --> 08:49.863
That's right.
08:51.072 --> 08:52.699
I'll set up an appointment.
08:59.748 --> 09:01.875
This isn't right, is it?
09:03.793 --> 09:06.921
Even if it's work,
with my date in front of me,
09:09.466 --> 09:11.341
messy food all over my mouth,
09:11.342 --> 09:12.844
and slurping loudly.
09:20.143 --> 09:21.144
I'm leaving.
09:22.395 --> 09:23.646
This place has great food.
09:28.933 --> 09:29.643
And
09:30.487 --> 09:32.405
since it might stain your white clothes.
09:32.906 --> 09:35.075
But your hair might get messed up.
09:37.723 --> 09:38.520
What are you doing?
10:10.985 --> 10:15.698
I can manage the apron
by myself, you know.
10:23.206 --> 10:25.166
But how did you know
my shoe size?
10:26.334 --> 10:27.251
Why wouldn't I know?
10:27.252 --> 10:30.212
I followed you around like a servant
every time we went shopping.
10:30.213 --> 10:31.464
Just a guess.
10:32.757 --> 10:33.508
Not bad.
10:34.759 --> 10:36.066
The style is just right.
10:37.053 --> 10:37.971
Wait a minute.
10:39.430 --> 10:41.223
How many women have you met?
10:41.224 --> 10:43.217
You really know
how to toy with people's hearts.
10:43.476 --> 10:47.104
Are you some kind of player?
10:47.105 --> 10:48.815
Isn't that something
you shouldn't say out loud?
10:51.234 --> 10:52.485
Who's even listening?
11:00.493 --> 11:02.579
Oh, this is nice!
11:04.038 --> 11:08.209
From a distance, everything looks
so shiny and pretty.
11:09.002 --> 11:10.320
Everything is from afar.
11:10.628 --> 11:11.340
I know.
11:13.840 --> 11:15.568
Life is a tragedy when seen in close-up,
11:16.759 --> 11:18.129
but a comedy
11:19.012 --> 11:19.626
in long-shot.
11:29.904 --> 11:31.412
Don't come
as Haenal Law Firm's son-in-law.
11:34.068 --> 11:35.453
Come later as a former judge.
11:42.535 --> 11:45.754
What my family needs
isn't a husband for me,
11:47.874 --> 11:50.656
but a son-in-law to do the bidding.
11:53.963 --> 11:55.779
So, I'm giving you the chance to go.
11:57.634 --> 12:00.469
When we first met,
you slapped my face right away.
12:00.470 --> 12:02.195
Now you can't even look at me
when rejecting me?
12:24.994 --> 12:25.492
Well,
12:26.746 --> 12:28.248
you're not my style anyway.
12:37.507 --> 12:37.997
I can
12:38.800 --> 12:39.947
keep these, right?
12:42.303 --> 12:43.721
Don't you want
Haenal Law Firm?
12:44.514 --> 12:45.890
I said I'd let you have it.
12:47.600 --> 12:49.601
You think I would believe that?
12:49.602 --> 12:50.436
Then what about me?
12:54.983 --> 12:56.295
How about believing in me?
13:01.656 --> 13:03.616
I definitely gave you a chance.
13:05.493 --> 13:07.537
No, I'm the one
giving the chance.
13:08.162 --> 13:11.541
I hope you choose a different life too,
just like I am.
13:27.849 --> 13:29.976
Soon, Jeon Heung-woo
will step down.
13:31.102 --> 13:33.479
I'm planning to put
Hwang Nam-yong in that position.
13:34.439 --> 13:36.690
If Hwang Tae-seong
is found guilty of employment fraud,
13:36.691 --> 13:38.943
Hwang Nam-yong cannot become
the chief justice.
13:39.402 --> 13:42.655
But what could be the reason
Kang Sin-jin offered Hwang Tae-seong?
13:45.950 --> 13:48.536
Judge Lee,
I can't write this article.
13:49.579 --> 13:50.329
What now?
13:52.957 --> 13:53.750
Why not?
13:54.792 --> 13:56.293
What do you mean you can't write it?
13:56.294 --> 13:59.004
I won't write a single word
13:59.005 --> 14:01.257
until you reveal your true identity.
14:01.674 --> 14:02.758
But I already told you,
14:02.759 --> 14:04.676
I'm Judge Lee Han-young
of the Seoul Central Court.
14:04.677 --> 14:06.137
Huh? It's Baek Yi-seok!
14:07.902 --> 14:08.680
Ha,
14:08.681 --> 14:10.599
- gotcha.
- What?
14:10.600 --> 14:12.642
What judge would go after
14:12.643 --> 14:15.562
a candidate for the Minister of Justice
and a Supreme Court justice?
14:15.563 --> 14:17.481
Yes, I get you want Hwang Nam-yong
14:17.482 --> 14:19.192
as revenge for your dad.
14:19.609 --> 14:20.776
But
14:20.777 --> 14:23.111
why did you bring down
Representative Woo Gyu-hun?
14:23.112 --> 14:24.154
Because he's a bad person?
14:24.155 --> 14:25.990
Come on, Judge Lee.
14:26.324 --> 14:28.575
- You're not alone, right?
- What?
14:28.576 --> 14:31.203
The prosecution is the one
who caught Yoo Gyu-hun's daughter, right?
14:31.204 --> 14:33.080
You think a judge
can influence the prosecution too?
14:33.081 --> 14:35.374
What do you take me for?
That's not true, right?
14:35.375 --> 14:37.334
The head of the court,
14:37.335 --> 14:39.336
Baek Yi-seok, right?
14:39.337 --> 14:41.171
Seeing you flustered, I guess I'm right.
14:41.172 --> 14:43.006
Wow, I got it right again
14:43.007 --> 14:45.550
The military corruption records from
Chungnam weren't a coincidence, right?
14:45.551 --> 14:47.886
The fact that Baek Yi-seok
called you to Seoul,
14:47.887 --> 14:50.722
that's all by design, isn't it?
14:50.723 --> 14:51.641
Wow.
14:52.100 --> 14:53.558
A master of misdirection?
14:53.559 --> 14:56.186
As I'm talking now,
I'm starting to feel a bit hurt.
14:56.187 --> 14:58.939
Why are you hiding things from me?
14:58.940 --> 15:00.399
That's not cool.
15:00.400 --> 15:01.401
Come on now.
15:01.734 --> 15:03.151
Don't worry.
15:03.152 --> 15:04.152
I'll just stuff it in,
15:04.153 --> 15:07.406
zip it up, and lock it away.
15:07.407 --> 15:09.742
I'll make sure to be your shadow.
15:10.368 --> 15:12.744
Hwang Tae-seong, son of Hwang Nam-yong,
JB Corporation favoritism
15:12.745 --> 15:15.456
Hiring scandal of Hwang Tae-seong,
son of Justice Hwang Nam-yong
15:20.586 --> 15:21.134
Gosh.
15:21.879 --> 15:22.922
Gosh.
15:25.341 --> 15:26.342
Gosh...
15:29.887 --> 15:30.555
Hey!
15:31.222 --> 15:33.182
Is the Daejin Daily Online, yours?
15:33.724 --> 15:34.933
Why didn't you had it checked out?
15:34.934 --> 15:35.976
Come on.
15:35.977 --> 15:38.770
This source was not just for me.
15:38.771 --> 15:40.021
Even if it weren't me,
15:40.022 --> 15:42.482
someone would have written it
in ten minutes.
15:42.483 --> 15:43.024
What?
15:43.025 --> 15:44.651
Do you want
15:44.652 --> 15:46.778
your junior reporter to get trashed?
15:46.779 --> 15:48.114
Hey, Song Na-yeon!
15:48.698 --> 15:49.122
Yes!
15:49.824 --> 15:52.368
Well, I'll just head out now.
15:54.579 --> 15:56.205
Seriously.
15:56.497 --> 15:59.000
Checking? At this hour?
15:59.167 --> 16:00.168
Should I
16:00.793 --> 16:02.086
just go independent?
16:06.048 --> 16:08.550
- What's taking them so long?
- It's Justice Hwang!
16:08.551 --> 16:09.718
- Huh?
- Justice Hwang Nam-yong!
16:09.719 --> 16:12.429
Are you involved in your son's hiring
at JB Construction?
16:12.430 --> 16:13.972
At least three years
of experience was the minimum,
16:13.973 --> 16:15.641
but your son had
only 10 months of experience.
16:16.225 --> 16:17.727
Do you acknowledge
illegal employment?
16:18.769 --> 16:22.231
Did Justice Hwang Nam-yong
interfere with JB Construction hiring?
16:28.696 --> 16:31.114
There's also the previous case
with the Minister of Justice,
16:31.115 --> 16:33.159
and if there's a problem
with Hwang Nam-yong too,
16:33.701 --> 16:35.453
won't there be repercussions at Suojae?
16:35.745 --> 16:37.288
How do you sleep at night?
16:39.707 --> 16:40.208
Pardon?
16:41.250 --> 16:42.463
Don't worry about it.
16:44.712 --> 16:47.340
Hwang Nam-yong will become chief justice.
16:57.934 --> 16:58.938
What happened?
17:02.647 --> 17:03.046
What?
17:12.782 --> 17:13.782
Mr. Hwang Tae-seong.
17:13.783 --> 17:14.824
Yes.
17:14.825 --> 17:15.826
Please sit comfortably.
17:16.619 --> 17:18.037
It'll get uncomfortable soon.
17:21.499 --> 17:22.874
Did you see the news?
17:22.875 --> 17:25.670
What are we going to do?
17:26.963 --> 17:28.005
We have to resolve it.
17:29.924 --> 17:31.300
Can we manage?
17:31.884 --> 17:34.387
He's the son of the future chief justice.
17:35.012 --> 17:36.389
Do you think I'd make a mistake?
17:38.015 --> 17:39.100
Right.
17:40.351 --> 17:41.769
I can only trust you.
17:44.689 --> 17:47.233
Haven't our ties already ended?
17:48.943 --> 17:52.029
I want to repay the favor
of you bringing me to Seoul.
17:53.656 --> 17:55.199
There's no need for that.
17:55.783 --> 17:58.619
After all, it's something you started too.
18:01.956 --> 18:03.957
Why did you bring this to me?
18:03.958 --> 18:06.168
It's something I can't handle.
18:06.711 --> 18:10.047
I thought you would protect it,
as the court chief.
18:10.840 --> 18:13.800
If it weren't for you,
I wouldn't have seen this through.
18:13.801 --> 18:16.512
This time, I'll start it,
but please take care of the end.
18:17.388 --> 18:18.805
What do you mean by that?
18:18.806 --> 18:19.457
Soon,
18:20.016 --> 18:22.226
Chief Justice Jeon Heung-woo
will step down.
18:22.852 --> 18:23.240
What?
18:23.436 --> 18:25.062
Please become the next chief justice.
18:27.648 --> 18:28.380
Listen here.
18:29.275 --> 18:30.985
Being chief justice
18:31.444 --> 18:33.278
isn't something
someone just tells you to do.
18:33.279 --> 18:35.656
It's also not a position
you can just want.
18:36.073 --> 18:37.023
I know.
18:37.283 --> 18:39.102
But if you don't step up,
18:39.910 --> 18:42.622
Hwang Nam-yong will become
the chief justice.
18:45.499 --> 18:47.292
Of course, any Supreme Court Justice
18:47.293 --> 18:49.544
is qualified to be Chief Justice,
18:49.545 --> 18:50.850
but not Hwang Nam-yong.
18:51.631 --> 18:53.673
He won't be recommended by
the Office of the President
18:53.674 --> 18:54.759
due to his son's employment favoritism.
18:55.593 --> 18:57.803
The recommendation
will come from Kang Sin-jin.
19:00.598 --> 19:02.891
Kang Sin-jin plans
to make Hwang Nam-yong
19:02.892 --> 19:04.894
a puppet chief justice.
19:07.462 --> 19:08.850
If Hwang Nam-yong becomes chief justice,
19:09.732 --> 19:12.192
bus drivers will continue to be fired
19:12.193 --> 19:13.778
over a few hundred won
for vending machine coffee,
19:14.987 --> 19:18.907
and prosecutors who entertained
at room salons won't even be charged
19:18.908 --> 19:20.409
if the amount is less than a million won.
19:20.743 --> 19:22.370
Look here!
19:22.995 --> 19:24.579
You left me for Kang Sin-jin.
19:24.580 --> 19:26.059
Have you changed your mind again?
19:26.540 --> 19:27.905
Are you going to act like that...
19:35.091 --> 19:35.794
Wait a second.
19:37.134 --> 19:40.638
So, the real reason you left me
for Kang Sin-jin is...
19:49.897 --> 19:50.516
Hello?
19:51.941 --> 19:53.025
Hello.
19:53.401 --> 19:56.070
This is Yu Seon-cheol
from Haenal Law Firm.
20:03.953 --> 20:05.287
How can I help you?
20:11.001 --> 20:13.420
Judge Lee Han-young,
whom you introduced,
20:13.421 --> 20:16.131
is dating my daughter quite well.
20:16.132 --> 20:18.175
Thanks to you,
we've found a great son-in-law.
20:18.718 --> 20:20.136
I'm finally able to greet you.
20:22.179 --> 20:22.680
Here you go.
20:25.808 --> 20:28.936
I heard that Eom Jung-ho
is at Haenal Law Firm now.
20:29.687 --> 20:31.772
Yes, he's working
as a legal advisor.
20:32.356 --> 20:33.858
He's getting the best treatment
in the industry.
20:34.442 --> 20:35.269
Thanks to that,
20:36.026 --> 20:38.153
Haenal Law Firm will become
the best in the industry.
20:38.154 --> 20:39.863
My goodness.
20:39.864 --> 20:41.574
We're still far from that.
20:42.116 --> 20:46.370
But if we have
the head of the judiciary, then maybe.
20:46.829 --> 20:48.789
You mean Chief Justice Jeon Heung-woo?
20:50.499 --> 20:52.418
According to Judge Lee Han-young,
20:53.335 --> 20:56.505
Jeon Heung-woo will step down soon.
20:59.842 --> 21:01.259
Do you believe that?
21:01.260 --> 21:04.472
With the current situation, I do.
21:09.059 --> 21:09.606
And
21:11.187 --> 21:14.482
the person I want
is not Chief Justice Jeon.
21:15.858 --> 21:17.276
If you want,
21:18.611 --> 21:20.237
I can accept a recommendation
21:22.114 --> 21:24.366
for chief justice.
21:45.930 --> 21:48.390
If I risk my life, will I be included?
21:49.683 --> 21:51.811
It looks like
you have already staked your life.
22:01.695 --> 22:02.446
What are you doing?
22:03.322 --> 22:04.615
I have a prior engagement.
22:05.241 --> 22:06.075
Aren't you getting out?
22:13.707 --> 22:15.623
Wow, nice car.
22:16.293 --> 22:17.502
Judges must make good money.
22:32.101 --> 22:33.434
I was top of my class
in law school.
22:33.435 --> 22:35.603
Smart and with a temper...
22:35.604 --> 22:37.517
I graduated top of my class
from Korea University Law School.
22:38.065 --> 22:39.190
I'm smart
22:39.191 --> 22:40.692
and I have a fierce temper.
22:40.693 --> 22:41.511
I know you're fierce.
22:43.112 --> 22:43.987
Did I mention this before?
22:43.988 --> 22:46.156
Do I really need to hear to know that?
22:48.325 --> 22:49.535
You're good at reading people.
22:50.536 --> 22:51.369
Just trust
22:51.370 --> 22:53.747
this prosecutor who's smart
and has a nasty temper.
22:54.790 --> 22:56.958
Whether it's the Judiciary's
major villain or monster,
22:56.959 --> 22:59.545
I'll catch them with Jang Tae-sik
and break them all in half with you.
22:59.879 --> 23:02.631
But before that,
you might bleed and fall first.
23:05.968 --> 23:07.720
I became a prosecutor
to catch Jang Tae-sik.
23:08.929 --> 23:11.015
Whether my head breaks
or my bones shatter,
23:12.349 --> 23:15.144
I'll catch him myself
and bring him to court for sure.
23:15.978 --> 23:17.688
Then I guess I'll handle the verdict.
23:18.564 --> 23:19.899
Okay, let's do it together.
23:20.524 --> 23:23.485
You break them in half
and I'll snap their necks.
23:26.155 --> 23:29.366
The major villain in
the Judiciary we need to catch is
23:31.201 --> 23:33.954
the chief judge of the criminal division
at the Central District Court,
23:38.792 --> 23:39.835
Kang Sin-jin.
23:42.796 --> 23:43.631
Kang Sin-jin?
24:03.859 --> 24:07.446
HANDEUL JUNK SHOP
24:08.405 --> 24:10.114
What happened when the video
24:10.115 --> 24:11.909
of a chaebol doing drugs came out?
24:12.534 --> 24:14.370
The whole country knows that face,
24:14.870 --> 24:16.413
but the prosecutors claimed ignorance.
24:17.706 --> 24:20.041
The governor's son
gets a salary of five billion won,
24:20.042 --> 24:22.127
but the court found
no evidence of quid pro quo.
24:22.711 --> 24:25.339
But Kang Sin-jin is above that.
24:25.673 --> 24:28.050
Even with abundant evidence,
we can't catch him.
24:30.260 --> 24:31.387
So what's the plan?
24:31.929 --> 24:32.826
Are we going to kidnap him or something?
24:33.138 --> 24:35.557
We can't just torture him saying,
"You know what your crimes are."
24:39.311 --> 24:40.834
I'll do it my way,
24:41.230 --> 24:42.523
whether it's legal or illegal.
24:44.024 --> 24:44.591
How's that?
24:53.534 --> 24:54.994
HANDEUL JUNK SHOP
24:57.955 --> 24:59.591
Didn't you say
you had a prior engagement?
25:00.290 --> 25:03.768
Yes, I promised
to have dinner with my parents.
25:05.921 --> 25:09.216
So is this your parents' house?
25:11.010 --> 25:12.060
Come on now.
25:12.386 --> 25:16.990
Are you saying all judges
are from the Gangnam 8th District?
25:18.642 --> 25:20.027
Oh, no.
25:20.644 --> 25:21.937
I didn't mean that.
25:40.581 --> 25:41.208
Who are you?
25:45.502 --> 25:46.341
Are you looking for something?
25:47.421 --> 25:48.509
Did you come on an errand
for your parents?
25:49.965 --> 25:50.537
Oh...
25:52.384 --> 25:52.796
Um...
25:53.677 --> 25:54.678
That...
25:59.975 --> 26:00.726
Jin-a.
26:01.101 --> 26:02.977
Are you really not coming in?
26:02.978 --> 26:03.687
Fine.
26:04.146 --> 26:06.982
Then just stay here
until the trial is over.
26:08.317 --> 26:10.026
After that, let's eat beef.
26:10.027 --> 26:11.027
Beef.
26:11.028 --> 26:12.446
Korean beef, your favorite.
26:22.372 --> 26:23.123
The court rules as follows.
26:24.458 --> 26:26.084
The defendant Lee Bong-seok
26:26.085 --> 26:27.169
is sentenced
26:28.045 --> 26:29.671
to one year and six months
26:31.423 --> 26:33.257
The defendant can file an appeal
26:33.258 --> 26:36.095
within one week from the verdict date.
26:36.678 --> 26:38.304
If no appeal is received,
26:38.305 --> 26:41.475
this ruling will be finalized.
26:43.519 --> 26:44.853
There and then.
26:56.573 --> 26:57.115
Yes?
26:58.575 --> 27:00.160
Whether legal or illegal.
27:00.661 --> 27:02.454
where should we start then?
27:06.416 --> 27:07.835
Want to try acting?
27:08.377 --> 27:11.296
Seoul High Court
Seoul Central District Court
27:14.925 --> 27:15.968
Yes, understood.
27:18.345 --> 27:19.179
This is
27:20.472 --> 27:22.598
the final ruling document,
27:22.599 --> 27:24.226
so just read it and deny the case.
27:25.060 --> 27:26.060
Oh, right.
27:26.061 --> 27:27.729
After today,
let's have a drink at Manwol.
27:28.355 --> 27:29.690
Sure.
27:44.371 --> 27:47.416
Case Number 2025-315.
27:48.208 --> 27:50.084
The plaintiff Yoon Ji-hye and two others
27:50.085 --> 27:53.379
against defendant SIC Life Corporation
27:53.380 --> 27:57.259
for insurance payment claim ruling.
I will announce the verdict.
28:04.183 --> 28:05.600
The facts of this case
28:05.601 --> 28:07.978
are recognized based on
the following evidence.
28:17.946 --> 28:18.733
What happened?
28:19.865 --> 28:21.658
The plaintiff's claim has been denied.
28:22.242 --> 28:23.202
Based on the circumstances,
28:23.493 --> 28:26.370
it's quite likely the death of the head
of the family was an accident.
28:26.371 --> 28:29.082
Judge Kim Yoon-hyeok
completely disregarded that.
28:32.544 --> 28:34.421
Haenal Law Firm is representing?
28:34.671 --> 28:35.297
Yes.
28:36.089 --> 28:38.216
The documents brought
by Judge Lee Han-young
28:38.217 --> 28:40.761
showed a connection
between Haenal and Kang Sin-jin.
28:41.511 --> 28:42.971
These guys,
28:44.223 --> 28:45.383
it seems certain.
28:58.654 --> 29:02.241
Can we keep proceeding
with Chief Justice Hwang Nam-yong?
29:03.200 --> 29:04.493
The public opinion isn't good.
29:05.077 --> 29:07.246
I'm not sure
if this is just wasting money.
29:07.621 --> 29:08.997
Are you really going to be
presumptuous too?
29:12.876 --> 29:14.795
Whether it's a waste or not is my call.
29:19.091 --> 29:20.092
Let's proceed as scheduled.
29:20.634 --> 29:21.635
Yes, sir.
29:32.145 --> 29:32.771
Hey.
29:35.524 --> 29:36.024
Chief Kang.
29:38.568 --> 29:39.229
It's been dismissed.
29:40.237 --> 29:40.769
Good.
29:42.572 --> 29:43.824
Okay.
29:47.494 --> 29:48.165
Yes, sir.
29:48.578 --> 29:50.956
I heard those kids scamming
with coin investments are back.
29:53.375 --> 29:56.002
The ones who lure you in with profits
while taking your money.
29:56.003 --> 29:57.713
Didn't they say it lasts
for about three months?
29:59.840 --> 30:01.882
Well, if that's the case,
I'll play it safe.
30:01.883 --> 30:03.634
Just two months, huh?
30:03.635 --> 30:04.927
Why not?
30:04.928 --> 30:05.929
Just two months...
30:07.681 --> 30:10.266
Hey, I'll call you back.
30:10.267 --> 30:10.892
Sure.
30:14.062 --> 30:14.938
You can go.
30:18.608 --> 30:19.609
Government ID
Kim Jin-a, Supreme Prosecutors' Office
30:22.404 --> 30:25.198
Gosh, that prosecutor...
30:37.586 --> 30:39.211
- Lunch?
- I'm on a diet.
30:39.212 --> 30:40.088
Oh, that's good.
30:40.297 --> 30:42.132
I was on a diet too. Coffee?
30:42.799 --> 30:43.341
Yes?
30:46.511 --> 30:47.971
I won't say anything,
no matter what they do,
30:48.204 --> 30:49.009
so please don't say anything.
30:53.685 --> 30:55.216
But why are you like this?
30:55.729 --> 30:57.396
Prosecutor Kim Jin-a caught
Woo Gyu-hoon's daughter,
30:57.397 --> 30:58.380
but why didn't you told me?
30:59.024 --> 31:00.816
Who exactly is the judicial villain?
31:00.817 --> 31:01.819
Oh, that?
31:02.486 --> 31:04.446
I told Kim Jin-a about it already.
31:05.155 --> 31:05.458
What?
31:09.034 --> 31:10.067
Seoul Central District Court
31:11.495 --> 31:14.664
Chief Criminal Judge Kang Shin-jin.
31:18.043 --> 31:20.379
Then what about the one
31:20.712 --> 31:22.129
who killed Representative Kang Jeong-tae
and attacked me?
31:22.130 --> 31:23.340
This is it.
31:26.093 --> 31:27.969
He's a killer
under Kang Sin-jin's orders.
31:30.305 --> 31:32.682
So he's not a judge.
He's just a villain.
31:33.517 --> 31:35.185
But to catch him, you need
31:35.894 --> 31:37.728
to put a steel plate
around your neck, right?
31:37.729 --> 31:39.063
It's way too dangerous.
31:39.064 --> 31:40.941
That's why I teamed up
with Prosecutor Kim Jin-a.
31:41.733 --> 31:42.983
Before our necks get snapped,
31:42.984 --> 31:44.819
we're going to
break that guy's neck first.
31:44.820 --> 31:46.279
How do you plan to do that?
31:47.072 --> 31:48.197
If I tell you,
will you do this with me?
31:48.198 --> 31:50.033
Didn't you come to ask me
to join you already?
31:50.283 --> 31:50.951
Your neck.
31:51.660 --> 31:52.452
Are you sure that's okay?
32:12.055 --> 32:14.891
I secretly put
my daughter's tuition on the line.
32:15.725 --> 32:17.269
I'm going crazy here.
32:18.562 --> 32:21.272
Huh? Judge Lee Seong-dae?
32:21.273 --> 32:22.858
Oh, Prosecutor Park Cheol-woo.
32:23.733 --> 32:24.395
Hello.
32:25.652 --> 32:28.195
I only see you in court.
Nice to see you here.
32:28.196 --> 32:29.488
I saw you earlier
32:29.489 --> 32:31.115
and thought you were a pro.
32:31.116 --> 32:32.200
Are you preparing for a game?
32:33.577 --> 32:35.327
I've been playing for about 10 years.
32:35.328 --> 32:36.203
Wow.
32:36.204 --> 32:37.204
Do you play often?
32:37.205 --> 32:38.873
Oh, I'm just a newbie.
32:38.874 --> 32:39.541
Pardon?
32:39.708 --> 32:40.625
A beginner golfer,
32:42.419 --> 32:44.087
Not "new baby" but newbie.
32:46.423 --> 32:47.215
Whoa!
32:52.053 --> 32:53.847
PROSECUTOR KIM JIN-A
32:57.517 --> 32:58.768
Prosecutor Kim Jin-a?
32:59.060 --> 33:01.645
Hey, I'll call you back.
33:01.646 --> 33:02.522
Yes.
33:03.148 --> 33:04.149
KIM JIN-A, SUPREME PROSECUTORS' OFFICE
33:08.445 --> 33:09.988
Coffee's here.
33:12.699 --> 33:14.284
Wow, this guy.
33:16.495 --> 33:17.329
What's wrong?
33:18.455 --> 33:20.832
She's a junior prosecutor
and she keeps pestering me,
33:21.416 --> 33:23.668
I wasn't trying to peek.
33:24.252 --> 33:26.338
Is she confessing her love or something?
33:26.713 --> 33:27.963
Confessing love.
33:27.964 --> 33:29.049
I would like that.
33:29.799 --> 33:31.258
Well, it's not like that.
33:31.259 --> 33:32.052
Come on.
33:36.181 --> 33:38.974
Recently, foreign investment scammers
have come into Gangnam.
33:38.975 --> 33:41.810
But this kid wants to invest
some money there.
33:41.811 --> 33:44.856
This young kid's already getting greedy.
33:46.441 --> 33:47.442
I mean,
33:48.068 --> 33:51.028
how do you make money from these scammers?
33:51.029 --> 33:52.239
Well, you see.
33:53.323 --> 33:55.450
They build trust by
giving interest regularly
33:55.992 --> 33:58.703
until they run off with the investment.
33:59.162 --> 34:00.746
- For about three months.
- I see...
34:00.747 --> 34:03.750
So as long as you put it in
and take it out, it's guaranteed profit.
34:04.543 --> 34:05.669
Ten percent each month.
34:07.754 --> 34:09.047
Ten percent?
34:21.476 --> 34:22.310
What happened?
34:27.482 --> 34:30.110
He seemed ready to invest right away.
34:30.944 --> 34:32.487
Oh, and please don't make me
do these kinds of things.
34:32.821 --> 34:36.283
Lee Seong-dae has gone into
massive debt from stocks about now.
34:36.741 --> 34:38.285
He'll be getting a bite soon.
34:47.294 --> 34:48.919
I'm curious why you gave me
34:48.920 --> 34:50.755
Hwang Tae-seong's employment report.
34:57.512 --> 34:58.722
Justice Minister Hwang Nam-yong.
35:01.016 --> 35:03.350
You said what you wanted
for the first time.
35:03.351 --> 35:04.352
I'll make it happen.
35:05.103 --> 35:06.726
If Hwang Tae-seong
gets arrested,
35:06.938 --> 35:10.191
it'll be tough for Hwang Nam-yong
to become Supreme Court chief justice.
35:10.358 --> 35:11.498
That could happen.
35:15.530 --> 35:16.261
No way.
35:16.740 --> 35:19.534
Kang Sin-jin won't give up
on Hwang Nam-yong.
35:20.368 --> 35:21.660
Seeing a justice being chased away
35:21.661 --> 35:24.372
by reporters, how does it feel?
35:25.457 --> 35:26.231
Does it make you feel better?
35:27.292 --> 35:28.109
It's just the beginning.
35:29.044 --> 35:32.425
Right, you can forget kindness,
but not enemies.
35:33.381 --> 35:34.466
If you forget kindness,
35:35.050 --> 35:37.092
you'll hear scathing comments,
35:37.093 --> 35:39.137
but if you forget your enemies,
you'll face them again.
35:48.104 --> 35:49.648
By the way,
are you really confident?
35:50.023 --> 35:53.318
I need to find a way to make
Hwang Nam-yong the chief justice.
35:54.319 --> 35:56.446
No matter the outcome,
you'll be satisfied.
35:58.114 --> 35:58.931
If I succeed,
35:59.699 --> 36:01.826
you will be proud for me
succeeding in revenge.
36:02.535 --> 36:03.508
If I fail,
36:04.537 --> 36:08.541
you will get the chief justice.
36:09.334 --> 36:10.502
It might be so.
36:13.296 --> 36:14.934
It's quite amusing.
36:42.200 --> 36:44.702
Since we've already
cast the bait,
36:44.703 --> 36:46.621
it's best to catch the prey ourselves.
36:47.580 --> 36:49.791
Move to the criminal division
and handle Hwang Tae-seong's trial.
36:50.792 --> 36:51.334
Pardon?
36:52.085 --> 36:53.920
Why? Don't you want to?
36:54.963 --> 36:55.755
No, I don't mind.
36:58.007 --> 36:59.134
If you trust me,
36:59.884 --> 37:01.261
I'll do my part.
37:01.886 --> 37:02.470
Right.
37:03.346 --> 37:06.099
Let's all do our best for our own goals.
37:30.039 --> 37:31.040
Did they see me?
37:38.256 --> 37:39.340
The person
you were with earlier.
37:41.926 --> 37:43.052
Was that him?
37:47.182 --> 37:48.516
Judge Lee Han-young?
37:51.352 --> 37:52.645
Things have changed.
37:54.481 --> 37:56.441
There won't be any clashes from now on.
38:00.361 --> 38:00.945
Yes.
38:14.125 --> 38:14.751
What are you doing?
38:16.044 --> 38:16.748
You came?
38:16.961 --> 38:19.464
You're the one who came.
It's my convenience store.
38:21.925 --> 38:23.009
What are you watching?
38:24.886 --> 38:26.079
Na-yeong has midterms.
38:27.680 --> 38:29.057
Wow.
38:29.599 --> 38:30.933
- She's studying hard
- Oh!
38:30.934 --> 38:32.559
Oh, my stomach!
38:32.560 --> 38:33.728
Oh, my stomach.
38:34.687 --> 38:37.315
I ate a gimbap here,
and now my stomach hurts.
38:37.649 --> 38:40.610
They're selling expired ones here.
38:41.945 --> 38:43.696
I just came to buy cigarettes.
38:46.282 --> 38:47.075
Quit it.
38:47.367 --> 38:48.701
- Excuse me?
- I said to quit it.
38:50.245 --> 38:50.912
Smoking.
38:51.204 --> 38:54.040
It kills you and brings others
to death too.
38:55.625 --> 38:56.209
Oh, well.
38:56.835 --> 38:59.796
If you really want to harm yourself,
I can help.
39:01.256 --> 39:03.299
This guy is really scary.
39:03.424 --> 39:06.051
Look at his arm.
His biceps are swollen,
39:06.052 --> 39:07.512
and this can't even go up.
39:09.097 --> 39:09.514
Oh,
39:10.348 --> 39:13.100
I will quit smoking then.
39:13.101 --> 39:14.477
- Please do.
- Yes.
39:15.144 --> 39:15.895
Good day.
39:16.604 --> 39:17.453
Good luck!
39:29.033 --> 39:30.033
Thank you. Come again.
39:30.034 --> 39:31.493
- Hey, Dol Jeong-ho
- Huh?
39:31.494 --> 39:33.078
- I need water.
- Can't you see over there?
39:33.079 --> 39:34.746
The water is self-service.
39:34.747 --> 39:35.915
You've grown up too well, seriously.
39:38.042 --> 39:39.793
Jeong-ho, we got a delivery.
39:39.794 --> 39:43.255
Okay, I'll swipe
all of today's sales.
39:43.256 --> 39:44.298
Are you stupid?
39:44.299 --> 39:46.383
It's all by credit card.
What can you swipe?
39:46.384 --> 39:47.176
Oh dear.
39:48.303 --> 39:49.971
They're cards, so I'll swipe.
39:52.015 --> 39:53.598
- Are you stuipd?
- Huh?
39:53.933 --> 39:55.643
How did you buy a building
with that brain?
39:56.644 --> 39:57.168
Are you curious?
39:58.563 --> 39:59.172
Want to know?
40:07.488 --> 40:08.489
Ah!
40:16.456 --> 40:18.833
I bought a building
while sweating like this.
40:21.002 --> 40:22.003
Ah,
40:23.171 --> 40:25.089
I don't even want to be a landlord.
40:29.719 --> 40:30.553
Oh, a fly!
40:36.559 --> 40:37.810
What are you doing?
40:39.604 --> 40:40.646
Hurry and pick that up!
40:40.647 --> 40:41.648
Fly!
40:42.190 --> 40:43.023
Fly!
40:43.024 --> 40:44.984
Business Hours: Everyday 7 AM to 10 PM
Thank you
40:52.116 --> 40:54.619
Oh, I just realized.
40:55.787 --> 40:58.998
These finger nerve
are connected to my wrist.
40:59.958 --> 41:00.959
Ah,
41:02.001 --> 41:04.252
what a desperate network of nerves.
41:04.253 --> 41:05.180
It's okay.
41:05.588 --> 41:07.966
For a judge, the mouth is important,
not the hands.
41:08.675 --> 41:09.291
Hey.
41:10.176 --> 41:11.635
The profession that does
the most reading and writing
41:11.636 --> 41:14.262
in the world is a judge.
41:14.263 --> 41:16.557
Really? What do we do now?
41:17.141 --> 41:18.434
- Good luck.
- Jeez...
41:19.310 --> 41:20.770
You can do it.
41:26.109 --> 41:26.900
- Oh my.
- Mmm!
41:26.901 --> 41:28.820
Judge Lee did all the dishes.
41:30.697 --> 41:32.823
But is this really okay?
41:32.824 --> 41:34.575
Of course it is.
Give it to me quickly.
41:34.784 --> 41:36.828
Here, this is mine.
41:38.538 --> 41:40.540
Let's see it.
41:43.960 --> 41:45.044
Okay...
41:46.254 --> 41:48.463
Wow, the era of 10,000-won hourly wages
41:48.464 --> 41:50.925
has finally arrived in Korea.
41:52.260 --> 41:52.741
Hey.
41:53.803 --> 41:56.639
The minimum wage in 2025 is 10,030 won.
41:56.931 --> 41:59.725
You worked two hours, right?
So that's 20,060 won.
41:59.726 --> 42:00.560
Here.
42:03.521 --> 42:05.439
- Give me mine.
- Buy something tasty.
42:05.440 --> 42:07.025
If possible, from our convenience store.
42:08.359 --> 42:08.901
Wow,
42:09.610 --> 42:11.278
they're too precious to be used.
42:11.279 --> 42:12.779
Really? Then I'll use it.
42:12.780 --> 42:15.157
You will lose a finger.
42:15.158 --> 42:17.034
You can't even use your fingers properly.
42:17.035 --> 42:17.909
Jeez.
42:17.910 --> 42:19.495
Hey, have some sundae.
42:19.996 --> 42:20.913
Open up.
42:21.289 --> 42:22.165
Okay.
42:25.251 --> 42:26.710
- Give me soju.
- Yes, soju.
42:26.711 --> 42:29.004
Soju for our judge.
42:29.005 --> 42:30.506
Oh, that's good.
42:31.049 --> 42:32.467
Mmm!
42:32.592 --> 42:33.134
Hey.
42:34.594 --> 42:36.720
The stage and the actors are all set,
42:36.721 --> 42:37.472
so when does construction start?
42:40.933 --> 42:42.101
Soon!
42:50.568 --> 42:51.152
He's here.
43:03.790 --> 43:05.332
Hi, everyone.
43:05.333 --> 43:08.461
My name is Brian.
43:09.921 --> 43:10.755
My name
43:11.547 --> 43:12.799
is Brian.
43:13.674 --> 43:16.302
And I'm the one
43:16.969 --> 43:19.931
who's going to make you
43:20.389 --> 43:21.724
all rich.
43:27.021 --> 43:28.271
Brian?
43:28.272 --> 43:29.732
Talking like you're rich.
43:30.149 --> 43:33.111
You're getting caught because
you're trying to eat off others' money.
43:35.905 --> 43:37.823
Sounds good, right?
43:37.824 --> 43:39.866
That woman is Yu Se-hee
from Haenal Law Firm.
43:39.867 --> 43:41.911
You're right. The judge slapper.
43:42.453 --> 43:44.412
If she's from Haenal Law Firm,
43:44.413 --> 43:46.374
doesn't that mean this is legally sound?
43:48.292 --> 43:49.627
Why not?
43:50.878 --> 43:51.420
Right?
43:52.296 --> 43:53.755
What about Asia?
43:53.756 --> 43:56.883
With over four billion people,
43:56.884 --> 44:01.471
crazy for K-pop, K-dramas,
and K-food.
44:01.472 --> 44:02.682
Oh, crazy. I'm sorry.
44:02.932 --> 44:05.350
Well, how should I express this?
44:05.351 --> 44:07.018
- Oh, passionate.
- Is that really okay?
44:07.019 --> 44:10.730
If not in passionate Asia,
44:10.731 --> 44:12.692
where else would you invest, everyone?
44:13.109 --> 44:14.067
Right?
44:14.068 --> 44:15.486
Brian!
44:21.951 --> 44:22.994
What's happening here?
44:23.578 --> 44:24.953
Are you telling me to invest in this?
44:24.954 --> 44:26.289
Just wait a moment and leave.
44:27.498 --> 44:29.124
It's necessary, to bring
44:29.125 --> 44:30.041
Baek Yi-seok to Haenal Law Firm.
44:30.042 --> 44:31.126
A long time ago.
44:31.127 --> 44:35.630
Once upon a time,
there was a Silk Road
44:35.631 --> 44:38.342
that made people wealthy.
44:38.926 --> 44:42.555
Now, there's Miracle-A Token Road,
everyone!
44:47.560 --> 44:50.520
Yes, all you need to do
is get ready!
44:50.521 --> 44:51.563
- To believe!
- Wow,
44:51.564 --> 44:53.648
there's a huge crowd
from the newspapers too.
44:53.649 --> 44:56.193
I need to invest before
the people gather, right?
44:56.194 --> 44:57.360
Exactly.
44:57.361 --> 44:58.821
- Where are you?
- Over there, CEO!
45:01.782 --> 45:02.824
As you can see,
45:02.825 --> 45:05.869
we're creating a cryptocurrency
that four billion people will use.
45:05.870 --> 45:09.456
We guarantee
a 10 percent return every month.
45:09.457 --> 45:11.041
Think of it, in a year...
45:11.042 --> 45:12.585
- Is 10 percent certain?
- Yes.
45:16.005 --> 45:17.548
- Yes?
- Hey, Han-young.
45:18.174 --> 45:21.385
Lee Sung-dae just came by.
He only invested 100 million.
45:21.677 --> 45:24.013
You said he has three billion.
Isn't 100 million being too stingy?
45:24.430 --> 45:25.931
Or was the construction a bit shoddy?
45:25.932 --> 45:27.349
He's a very cautious guy.
45:27.350 --> 45:29.435
If I send a signal,
send 10 percent of the profits.
45:29.936 --> 45:31.145
He'll react immediately.
45:31.896 --> 45:33.188
First of all,
45:33.189 --> 45:37.234
I've switched Hwang Nam-yong's car
to a compact used one.
45:37.235 --> 45:37.817
Okay.
45:37.818 --> 45:40.488
I'm looking into apartments
near Sinyeong-dong.
45:41.280 --> 45:42.822
Well, for the donation period,
45:42.823 --> 45:46.117
we need a place that can manage
accounts for over five years,
45:46.118 --> 45:47.828
so it might take some time.
45:49.372 --> 45:51.165
Don't miss out on the timing
and aim for about 300 million.
45:51.999 --> 45:53.291
Yes, Chief Kang.
45:56.379 --> 45:57.713
Did something good happen?
45:58.881 --> 45:59.879
Oh, well,
46:00.549 --> 46:02.677
isn't it about appointing
the chief justice?
46:03.469 --> 46:04.470
I'm feeling nervous.
46:06.264 --> 46:07.515
Nervous for what?
46:08.975 --> 46:09.892
Just don't make a mistake.
46:10.393 --> 46:11.435
Got it.
46:19.360 --> 46:22.363
Case Number 2025-2203.
46:22.697 --> 46:25.115
The trial for defendant
Hwang Tae-seong's work obstruction
46:25.116 --> 46:27.868
and forgery of official documents
will now begin.
46:38.087 --> 46:39.672
SUPREME COURT JUSTICE HWANG NAM-YONG
46:46.929 --> 46:48.764
Your call could not
be connected. Going to voicemail...
46:53.561 --> 46:54.270
CHIEF JUSTICE KANG SIN-JIN
46:58.649 --> 47:01.736
Your call could not
be connected. Going to voicemail...
47:42.193 --> 47:45.946
Why didn't you go to court
to take care of the article you wrote?
47:46.405 --> 47:48.865
Why would I go there today?
47:48.866 --> 47:50.409
Am I an amateur?
47:50.868 --> 47:51.285
What?
47:52.453 --> 47:53.746
Then where are you right now?
47:54.747 --> 47:56.665
Interview first, report after.
47:56.999 --> 47:58.667
I'll update you later.
48:01.754 --> 48:06.467
Why isn't Hwang Nam-yong
attending his son's trial?
48:11.680 --> 48:14.308
Kim Yoon-cheol
will secure the next presidency.
48:14.934 --> 48:16.894
I already see movements
48:17.520 --> 48:19.188
for the next government.
48:24.026 --> 48:28.321
We've acquired
a mineral company in Canada.
48:28.322 --> 48:30.657
The group plans to invest 100 billion.
48:30.658 --> 48:33.868
If there's no progress within a year,
we'll go bankrupt.
48:33.869 --> 48:35.579
We'll just lose the investment.
48:37.581 --> 48:38.967
Recommend the Commissioner
of the National Tax Service
48:39.333 --> 48:41.459
and the Minister of Trade,
Industry and Energy.
48:41.460 --> 48:44.922
And please add
the Minister of Employment and Labor.
48:46.757 --> 48:47.758
People these days.
48:49.343 --> 48:51.094
Getting older just makes one greedier.
48:51.095 --> 48:52.846
Isn't that greed why you are
48:52.847 --> 48:55.099
sitting in this position, Your Excellency?
48:56.100 --> 48:57.768
Power rests with you,
Your Excellency,
48:58.144 --> 49:00.771
but the money is with Jang Yong-hyeon.
49:01.105 --> 49:04.232
Did you not create this Suojae
driven by that greed?
49:04.233 --> 49:05.775
My goodness, look at you.
49:05.776 --> 49:07.820
Okay, then.
49:08.946 --> 49:11.282
Add the Minister of Employment and Labor.
But, no more.
49:12.575 --> 49:13.742
Of course.
49:16.162 --> 49:19.832
Oh.
49:26.589 --> 49:28.407
I can't trust
Chief Justice Kang Sin-jin.
49:29.216 --> 49:32.136
Telling me not to worry,
yet he's not answering his phone.
49:32.887 --> 49:35.931
What in the world is happening?
I can't figure it out.
49:36.974 --> 49:38.392
Why do you need to know?
49:39.560 --> 49:40.094
What?
49:40.728 --> 49:43.022
If Chief Kang is doing it, it's happening.
49:44.273 --> 49:45.649
Well, since you're here,
49:48.527 --> 49:49.403
have some tea.
50:30.653 --> 50:33.531
Defendant
Hwang Tae-seong submitted
50:33.656 --> 50:36.116
a falsified resume
while applying for a position
50:36.450 --> 50:39.203
at JB Corporation on October 14, 2024.
50:39.745 --> 50:41.412
Thus, the defendant
50:41.413 --> 50:45.292
obstructed JB Corporation's work
by means of deception.
50:47.044 --> 50:50.089
What's the real reason
Kang Sin-jin threw Hwang Tae-seong?
50:51.507 --> 50:53.676
Is it just Kang Sin-jin's idea to appoint
50:54.426 --> 50:56.762
Hwang Nam-yong as chief justice?
51:00.891 --> 51:02.518
- Hey...
- You're here?
51:05.479 --> 51:05.946
Hey.
51:07.523 --> 51:08.956
What are you going to do?
51:10.109 --> 51:11.946
- What?
- What do you mean by what?
51:12.778 --> 51:16.090
Hwang Nam-yong's son
is in your hands, right?
51:16.782 --> 51:19.473
Seriously, this is like
winning the lottery.
51:20.327 --> 51:21.537
Look at you.
51:22.329 --> 51:24.748
Did nobody call?
51:27.001 --> 51:28.193
They did, right? Huh?
51:28.961 --> 51:31.337
They did. You did get a call.
51:31.338 --> 51:33.214
Come on, what did he say?
What will he do for you?
51:33.215 --> 51:34.632
No, you haven't eaten yet, right?
51:34.633 --> 51:36.218
Should we go out
and grab some food while we talk?
51:36.760 --> 51:38.762
Do you have no one to eat with here?
51:42.141 --> 51:45.728
Me? I have plenty of people.
They're all lined up.
51:46.145 --> 51:49.398
Hey, you're grateful I came to see you,
as former classmates, right?
51:53.527 --> 51:55.778
Stop sharpening that and listen, okay?
51:55.779 --> 51:57.906
Quit dragging this out and let's go.
I'll buy you a sharpener.
51:59.742 --> 52:01.910
Do you know what gets longer
the more you sharpen?
52:05.456 --> 52:07.333
What do you mean?
52:07.666 --> 52:08.917
Is it a pencil lead?
52:09.460 --> 52:10.419
Correct.
52:10.836 --> 52:12.671
Take this and go away.
52:22.931 --> 52:25.475
Hey, you can
put it to use, okay?
52:25.476 --> 52:27.144
I'm going to use a mechanical pencil.
52:40.240 --> 52:43.160
The paradox that it
gets longer the more you sharpen it
52:43.827 --> 52:45.995
lies in the fact that
52:45.996 --> 52:48.248
sharpening and lengthening
are not the same.
52:50.709 --> 52:53.836
The fact that Kang Sin-jin
is trying to place Hwang Nam-yong
52:53.837 --> 52:56.882
in the Supreme Court, but gave me
Hwang Tae-seong is a paradox.
52:57.716 --> 52:58.883
I must
52:58.884 --> 53:01.303
find the hidden answer within it.
53:05.099 --> 53:06.100
TAEKYUNG BIO
53:24.785 --> 53:27.578
Taekyung Bio's delisting
is nearly confirmed.
53:27.579 --> 53:29.914
Judge Lee Seong-dae
told me to buy that too.
53:29.915 --> 53:30.708
Did you buy it?
53:31.375 --> 53:33.626
I'm already barely managing
my apartment loan payments.
53:33.627 --> 53:35.045
Taekyung Bio Turns Out to Be
a Smuggling Operation
53:39.007 --> 53:39.799
In 30 minutes,
53:39.800 --> 53:42.469
send 10 million won to Lee Seong-dae.
53:42.970 --> 53:43.954
Trading halted?
53:44.888 --> 53:45.848
Valuation amount...
53:48.308 --> 53:49.350
No.
53:49.351 --> 53:50.226
THE STOCK IS CURRENTLY SUSPENDED
53:50.227 --> 53:52.520
No, my 400 million won...
53:52.521 --> 53:53.731
BREAKING NEWS: TAEKYUNG BIO DELISTED
53:54.773 --> 53:55.941
Honey, what should I do?
53:57.776 --> 53:59.862
How will I pay for our daughter
Seon-young's tuition?
54:00.863 --> 54:02.072
Oh no...
54:03.615 --> 54:04.908
WIFE
54:10.497 --> 54:11.748
What is it?
54:11.749 --> 54:14.876
Seon-young's tuition
and living expenses are due next month.
54:14.877 --> 54:17.337
Shouldn't we send it
while the dollar is low?
54:18.255 --> 54:21.048
Why are you calling about exchange rates?
54:21.049 --> 54:22.300
I'm busy right now.
54:22.301 --> 54:22.861
I'm hanging up.
54:28.515 --> 54:29.975
This can't be...
54:30.893 --> 54:32.185
What's with this woman?
54:32.186 --> 54:33.604
MIRACLE 'SCAMMER'
54:38.066 --> 54:39.067
Hello?
54:39.860 --> 54:42.069
Hello, investor Lee Seong-dae.
54:42.070 --> 54:43.696
This is Miracle Asia.
54:43.697 --> 54:46.324
We're calling because the profits
came in quicker than expected.
54:46.325 --> 54:46.825
What?
54:47.576 --> 54:49.452
I'll deposit
the funds right now.
54:49.453 --> 54:49.912
Good luck!

55:20.651 --> 55:23.987
That's right. There's always a way.
55:25.072 --> 55:27.865
Ten percent of 30 billion
is three billion a month.
55:27.866 --> 55:29.034
That's six billion in two months.
55:29.284 --> 55:31.411
If I recover the four billion
lost in stocks,
55:31.703 --> 55:32.704
I still have two billion left.
55:33.288 --> 55:36.208
I just need a month to provide
my daughter's tuition.
55:41.296 --> 55:41.713
Oh!
55:44.049 --> 55:45.550
Hello,
Prosecutor Park Cheol-woo.
55:45.551 --> 55:46.843
Judge, what brings you here?
55:46.844 --> 55:48.387
- Coffee.
- Oh!
55:49.638 --> 55:50.277
So,
55:51.139 --> 55:54.016
about that overseas
55:54.017 --> 55:55.935
coin investment scam you mentioned.
55:55.936 --> 55:56.544
Yes?
55:57.020 --> 56:00.440
I happen to have
some extra cash now.
56:02.150 --> 56:03.109
Wait.
56:03.110 --> 56:04.903
- Judge, please!
- What?
56:05.404 --> 56:07.029
Please avoid saying that if you can.
56:07.030 --> 56:09.782
It could lead to huge problems later.
56:09.783 --> 56:12.119
Just a small amount.
56:12.703 --> 56:16.038
Even if I lose it all, I won't blame you.
56:16.039 --> 56:18.292
Please, just send me one text
56:18.750 --> 56:20.168
before you close in.
56:21.211 --> 56:24.171
Well, this is under investigation,
so I can't expose it recklessly...
56:24.172 --> 56:25.382
Even if a knife
is at my throat,
56:26.049 --> 56:28.927
I won't speak a word about you.
56:29.344 --> 56:29.886
Huh?
56:32.890 --> 56:34.057
Are you struggling these days?
56:40.981 --> 56:43.107
I said we will close in
after about two months.
56:43.108 --> 56:44.610
And agreed to contact him beforehand.
56:45.402 --> 56:46.361
Good job.
56:46.862 --> 56:48.655
Judge Lee, look at this.
56:52.576 --> 56:53.447
Suojae?
56:54.369 --> 56:56.275
Chief Justice Hwang Nam-yong came here?
56:56.705 --> 56:59.540
Yes, but that's not all.
56:59.541 --> 57:01.460
I checked the cars leaving here, and
57:02.336 --> 57:03.837
it's Chairman Jang Yong-hyeon.
57:04.838 --> 57:07.424
But that bag coming out of the trunk.
57:07.925 --> 57:08.925
What do you think it is?
57:08.926 --> 57:10.010
Probably a money bag, right?
57:13.263 --> 57:14.389
Do you know who lives here?
57:15.682 --> 57:17.851
Yes, of course.
57:18.769 --> 57:21.396
I checked while on my way to meet you.
57:24.816 --> 57:26.068
Um,
57:26.526 --> 57:29.029
don't faint from the shock.
57:29.363 --> 57:29.695
Okay.
57:32.532 --> 57:34.117
It was the former president
57:34.993 --> 57:36.037
Park Gwang-to.
57:41.083 --> 57:42.235
Oh, wow.
57:56.348 --> 57:58.183
- Are you sure?
- Yes.
57:58.892 --> 58:01.019
You have no idea how shocked I was.
58:01.478 --> 58:03.355
I didn't know this
in my previous life.
58:03.772 --> 58:07.317
Behind Kang Sin-jin
was former president Park Gwang-to.
58:11.780 --> 58:12.781
But,
58:13.657 --> 58:16.492
if I write this article...
58:16.493 --> 58:17.828
Let's keep it a secret for now.
58:20.747 --> 58:21.748
But still...
58:28.255 --> 58:29.715
FUTURE FOUNDATION MANAGER MR. KIM
58:31.133 --> 58:31.924
Hello?
58:31.925 --> 58:33.969
Hello, Mr. Lee Seong-dae.
58:34.261 --> 58:35.553
This is the Future Talent Foundation.
58:35.554 --> 58:36.638
This is Manager Kim speaking.
58:37.681 --> 58:40.142
Yes, about the donation
you mentioned before.
58:40.434 --> 58:43.102
If we adjust the accounting records a bit,
58:43.103 --> 58:45.480
we could set the donation period
to about five years.
58:46.064 --> 58:47.228
Oh, really?
58:47.816 --> 58:50.861
The donation amount
is 300 million, right?
58:51.611 --> 58:52.821
Yes, well,
58:53.155 --> 58:54.573
300 million, that's right.
58:56.241 --> 58:58.535
Get the task force ready right now.
59:04.499 --> 59:05.459
Did you call for me?
59:06.376 --> 59:09.587
You know Woo Hee-young is the daughter
of Woo Gyo-hun, yet you're not scared?
59:09.588 --> 59:10.756
She's the daughter of
a Minister of Justice candidate.
59:12.507 --> 59:13.758
And who's order was that?
59:13.759 --> 59:15.010
Of course I'll follow it.
59:16.511 --> 59:17.512
Oh!
59:18.472 --> 59:18.985
Follow me.
59:19.681 --> 59:22.100
I want to include your name
in the incident report.
59:25.896 --> 59:26.897
What's going on?
59:29.274 --> 59:31.234
Chief, where are we going?
59:31.651 --> 59:32.818
To Gangnam.
59:32.819 --> 59:35.030
We've got a tip-off about fraudsters
running a scheme here.
59:35.864 --> 59:37.157
It's called Miracle Asia.
59:38.200 --> 59:40.327
They've even held
an investment presentation already.
59:41.578 --> 59:42.746
What's so surprising about that?
59:44.122 --> 59:46.625
Are there still people like that
these days?
59:46.958 --> 59:49.961
This world runs on money.
Will it ever change?
59:51.129 --> 59:52.130
Right.
59:57.260 --> 59:58.303
JUDGE LEE HAN-YOUNG
01:00:02.516 --> 01:00:04.476
We're just 10 minutes away.
01:00:05.727 --> 01:00:07.144
Arriving at the scene
in 10 minutes.
01:00:07.145 --> 01:00:08.479
Get ready.
01:00:08.480 --> 01:00:09.523
Got it.
01:00:13.193 --> 01:00:15.362
Nine minutes left now.
01:00:19.241 --> 01:00:20.366
Jeong-ho.
01:00:20.367 --> 01:00:21.576
The prosecutor?
01:00:22.119 --> 01:00:23.120
Right now?
01:00:38.635 --> 01:00:40.511
Hurry up, Seong-dae.
01:00:40.512 --> 01:00:42.222
Our Seong-dae.
01:01:10.041 --> 01:01:10.709
Huh?
01:01:11.668 --> 01:01:13.170
What's with that guy?
01:01:17.382 --> 01:01:18.383
Huh?
01:01:27.809 --> 01:01:29.977
- Hey, just let it go, okay?
- Damn it.
01:01:29.978 --> 01:01:31.646
That guy is crazy.
01:01:44.618 --> 01:01:45.619
Oh, my neck!
01:01:46.828 --> 01:01:48.370
Hey, are you crazy?
01:01:48.371 --> 01:01:50.289
I told you to let it go!
01:01:50.290 --> 01:01:52.584
Why does that bastard
keep cutting in?
01:01:54.836 --> 01:01:57.130
Did you learn to drive
with a pot lid?
01:01:57.547 --> 01:02:00.883
Excuse me! Did you learn to drive
from Kart Rider?
01:02:00.884 --> 01:02:02.886
Do you think just turning on
the blinker is enough?
01:02:03.553 --> 01:02:04.512
Are you okay?
01:02:04.888 --> 01:02:05.889
Of course, I'm okay.
01:02:08.183 --> 01:02:09.099
Of course?
01:02:09.100 --> 01:02:10.977
Wow, this is completely reckless!
01:02:11.394 --> 01:02:13.562
You can't live life like that, okay?
01:02:13.563 --> 01:02:15.148
Hey, what about my life?
01:02:15.732 --> 01:02:18.442
So what? Huh?
01:02:18.443 --> 01:02:19.235
- Huh?
- What?
01:02:19.236 --> 01:02:21.029
Wow, now you're cursing at me too!
01:02:21.363 --> 01:02:23.030
- Did you just curse at me?
- Hey, hey!
01:02:23.031 --> 01:02:24.823
Let's just wrap it up quickly and go!
01:02:24.824 --> 01:02:26.243
Just stay there, sir!
01:02:27.285 --> 01:02:28.787
I'll handle it on my end.
01:02:29.913 --> 01:02:30.914
Get in.
01:02:34.209 --> 01:02:35.710
What's going on right now?
01:02:36.753 --> 01:02:37.920
Wow.
01:02:37.921 --> 01:02:40.799
I guess that rumor
about her temper is true.
01:02:42.717 --> 01:02:45.178
Seriously, I'm really short on time.
01:02:49.766 --> 01:02:52.434
Hello.
You're Mr. Lee Seong-dae, right?
01:02:52.435 --> 01:02:53.645
- Yes.
- This way, please.
01:02:57.065 --> 01:02:57.816
Come in.
01:02:59.992 --> 01:03:00.776
Sir.
01:03:00.777 --> 01:03:01.819
Oh!
01:03:01.820 --> 01:03:04.113
- Hello, sir.
- Our investor, hello.
01:03:04.114 --> 01:03:05.823
- You've been well, right?
- Of course.
01:03:05.824 --> 01:03:06.615
- Please have a seat.
- Sure.
01:03:06.616 --> 01:03:07.992
- Coffee's okay, right?
- Yes.
01:03:07.993 --> 01:03:09.452
Just two cups, please.
01:03:13.081 --> 01:03:14.832
TAEGUN BANK
01:03:14.833 --> 01:03:16.334
2,900,000,000 Won, Lee Seong-dae
100,000,000 Won, Lee Seong-dae
01:03:19.254 --> 01:03:20.672
The deposit has been confirmed.
01:03:21.047 --> 01:03:23.550
Last time was one billion,
totaling three billion now.
01:03:23.717 --> 01:03:26.136
You'll receive 300 million
in profits next month.
01:03:27.846 --> 01:03:28.554
Hurry up.
01:03:28.555 --> 01:03:30.807
- Okay, shall we get up...
- Just a moment.
01:03:34.694 --> 01:03:35.478
Um,
01:03:37.105 --> 01:03:39.149
about next month's profits,
01:03:40.525 --> 01:03:42.319
can we reinvest that?
01:03:44.029 --> 01:03:45.029
Oh, absolutely.
01:03:45.030 --> 01:03:46.531
Should we make that happen?
01:03:47.615 --> 01:03:50.243
Three hundred million
at 10% is 30 million.
01:04:12.724 --> 01:04:13.433
Ah!
01:04:14.142 --> 01:04:15.768
- What's wrong?
- Oh, my back hurts.
01:04:15.769 --> 01:04:17.186
It's from that accident earlier, sir.
01:04:17.187 --> 01:04:18.604
Hey, just get out.
01:04:18.605 --> 01:04:19.813
What? Oh...
01:04:19.814 --> 01:04:20.732
Get out.
01:04:21.358 --> 01:04:22.525
HAN-YOUNG
01:04:28.073 --> 01:04:29.657
Your call cannot be...
01:04:57.352 --> 01:04:59.436
They just got on
the elevator. Hurry up.
01:04:59.437 --> 01:05:00.647
Yes, got it.
01:05:00.772 --> 01:05:02.982
Gosh, do I have
to take the stairs?
01:05:04.609 --> 01:05:07.653
The profit will be deposited
in a month anyway.
01:05:07.654 --> 01:05:10.239
Just let me know before then
and I'll handle it.
01:05:10.240 --> 01:05:11.949
I have an urgent meeting today.
01:05:11.950 --> 01:05:12.909
Yes, let's go.
01:05:13.660 --> 01:05:15.702
In two months,
it's 60 million won.
01:05:15.703 --> 01:05:18.580
What? Of course, it's 60 million,
since it's 30 million a month.
01:05:18.581 --> 01:05:20.083
I have an urgent meeting today.
01:05:38.017 --> 01:05:39.477
It's prosecution!
01:05:47.152 --> 01:05:50.989
THE JUDGE RETURNS
01:06:12.135 --> 01:06:14.846
Special thanks to actors
Kim Myung-su and Kim Min-kyo
01:06:15.221 --> 01:06:18.015
What do you say? To seize
this chance to enter a real power.
01:06:18.016 --> 01:06:19.408
Declare Hwang Tae-seong
01:06:19.409 --> 01:06:20.392
not guilty.
01:06:20.393 --> 01:06:21.894
You need to
buy a ticket like that.
01:06:21.895 --> 01:06:24.730
What I'm doing now
isn't a trial. It's a hostage situation.
01:06:24.731 --> 01:06:27.108
Just hold on a little bit.
I'll be there soon.
01:06:27.484 --> 01:06:28.484
You have to
protect him at all costs.
01:06:28.485 --> 01:06:29.401
Strike first.
01:06:29.402 --> 01:06:30.403
I'm Seok Jeong-ho!
01:06:30.612 --> 01:06:31.987
Can you handle that?
01:06:31.988 --> 01:06:33.614
You'll become chief justice.
01:06:33.615 --> 01:06:35.574
You won't become
the chief justice.
01:06:35.575 --> 01:06:37.160
Whose words hold more weight?
01:06:37.452 --> 01:06:38.660
The chance is mine to give.
01:06:38.661 --> 01:06:40.537
- You told me to trust you!
- No!
01:06:40.538 --> 01:06:41.831
Crazy bastards.
01:06:41.998 --> 01:06:43.457
You were the one who messed up.
01:06:43.458 --> 01:06:45.210
One misstep and I fall.
