We'll now begin the second trial for the Choi Dae Woong murder case.
Your Honor. We want a witness to be summoned.
Who is the witness?
He's the Mayor of Kiseong, An Oh Ju.
Judge Cha Moon Sook.
I, Mayor An Oh Ju,
will speak the truth with my name.
Bong Sang Pil, who's sitting right over there...
isn't the culprit.
What do you want from me?
(New Record)
You're going to prove Attorney Bong's innocence?
My goodness, you and Bong Sang Pil are like two peas in a pod.
You're very impatient.
I know that you framed him for the murder.
Will you make a confession in the courtroom or what?
Well, about that...
I won't say anything.
Who knows? You might have brought...
a bug or a voice recorder into this office...
like we see in movies all the time.
There.
Now, tell me why you're making such a proposition.
Well, aren't you here because you find it appealing?
If the trial keeps dragging on,
it'll only put Bong Sang Pil in a bigger danger.
Who knows what can happen to him in the prison?
What do you want?
What do I want?
- Hey, Gwan Dong. - Yes, sir.
- Bring out some tea for us. - Yes, sir.
When the trial is over,
you'll find out naturally what it is that I wanted.
You'll learn what I'm gaining from it.
Are you confused?
Frankly, I don't really care whether that punk,
Bong Sang Pil, dies or not, but...
I must say, you haven't changed one bit,
Miss Lawyer.
I approve your request.
The witness may be seated.
(Episode 11)
Is there a reason you're claiming the defendant is not guilty?
Yes, of course.
Then please tell us the reason.
All people of Kiseong who are here today,
I'd like to tell you the truth...
about this case.
The person...
who killed the victim...
is my bodyguard.
Your bodyguard?
What was his motive?
He's seen everything Bong Sang Pil did...
to threaten and harm me.
His misguided loyalty toward me...
was what led to this tragedy.
Does this mean you've persuaded him to come clean?
Of course.
I persuaded him to turn himself in.
Mr. Prosecutor, you should be getting a call about it very soon.
(Investigator Gong Jang Soo)
(A man just turned himself in saying he killed Choi Dae Woong.)
All right.
Then what I'd like to know is...
why you came here to testify when reporting him was enough.
That's a very good question.
First of all, I'd like to...
sincerely apologize to Attorney Bong Sang Pil...
for having to be here because of me.
And my bodyguard now has to...
take responsibility for what he did because of his misguided loyalty.
As his boss,
I'm here to help him...
get his sentence mitigated.
Please forgive him.
Prosecution and Defense Attorney, come forward.
The witness Mayor An just mentioned.
Have you gotten a call about it?
I just got a message. It looks like we need to investigate him more.
A suspect just turned himself in, so this trial is meaningless.
Points taken. Go back to your seats.
Mayor An Oh Ju...
came all the way here in person to testify.
Please strictly examine the credibility of his claim.
We'll end the trial here.
A chasm is forming between the crocodile and the crocodile bird.
Why did you put your mayor post on the line and testify, sir?
Did you suggest the idea to him?
Gosh, I won't answer.
Why did you come to court in person?
Do you have nothing to do with the case, sir?
Well...
Let me say one thing to prevent any misunderstandings.
I didn't come here to ask...
the judge to take a year or two off his sentence.
My bodyguard committed a very serious crime,
and he deserves to be punished for what he did.
But you see,
he did it out of his loyalty for me.
As his boss,
I thought I should apologize on his behalf...
and beg for forgiveness. That's why I came here today.
- No more questions, please. - Please tell us more!
- Sir. - One more question, sir.
The perpetrator of Choi Dae Woong's murder turned himself in.
Hence, Suspect Bong Sang Pil, who has been...
undergoing trials, is acquitted,
and we drop charges against him.
I'd like to apologize...
to Attorney Bong Sang Pil on behalf of the entire prosecution.
- Sir, what will happen to... - Please tell us about...
Ha Jae I.
Jae I.
Did you make a deal...
with An Oh Ju for me?
I had to get you out as soon as possible,
and he had something to gain from the trial.
We both benefited from it.
Wasn't that too risky, sir?
"Risky"?
- Hey, Gwan Dong. - Yes, sir.
You see,
I walk on a blade every single day.
A very sharp blade.
We must risk such danger...
to gain something big in return.
Do you get what I'm saying?
Yes, sir.
Call the PR team...
and tell them to write a nice press release.
But I'm a little worried about how Judge Cha...
will respond to it.
Cha Moon Sook and I are...
already at war.
You just don't hear any gunshots.
Judge Cha.
We have a big problem.
Please have a look at this.
("Kiseong Has Mayor An Oh Ju")
How dare they compare him to you.
From newspapers to the Internet,
everyone is busy praising An Oh Ju at the moment.
("Powerbroker of Kiseong, An Oh Ju")
"Powerbroker of Kiseong"? "In a new light"? Yeah right.
You're the one who rules the city of Kiseong.
How can showing up in court suddenly make him a star?
Gosh.
It just shows how foolish and gullible people are.
An Oh Ju played them like a fiddle.
What a bunch of idiots.
It won't work.
- Boss. - Try again.
- Boss. - Boss!
- Boss. - You're here!
How was everyone?
- Good. - Great.
I missed you.
Good job hanging in there.
Just look at what his time in prison did to his good looks.
He's still handsome though.
Good job, everyone. Thank you.
Attorney Ha did all the hard work.
Let's applaud!
- What's all this? - Please dig in.
Wasn't this just for you lot?
- No. - Of course not!
We added tofu in the seafood stew.
- This is to die for. - Let's eat.
Sure.
- Here. Have a drink. - Thanks.
- It's always nice to be together. - Of course.
Clear Bong Sang Pil's name.
Jae I, show me how good of a lawyer you are.
Win his case.
Why do you think Moon Sook said it?
Her telling you to win my case?
Yes.
I think the one who ordered the hit on me and An Oh Ju...
is Cha Moon Sook.
What?
I knew they were at odds,
but not to this length.
Our enemy has split into two.
Do you think this will benefit us?
It depends on whether Judge Cha wanted this to happen.
I agree.
I feel like we've been playing her game this whole time.
I should go and see her.
Jae I.
I'm going alone.
I need to know why.
Since you won the trial,
you're here to know why I told you to win it.
However, you're not worthy of my answer.
Why not?
You won because of Mayor An's testimony,
not because of what you did on your own.
Then I'll ask you something else.
Was lifting my suspension the beginning to your plan?
"The beginning"?
To be honest, I wanted you to follow...
in my footsteps as a prominent member of the legal circle.
You probably won't believe this,
but I wanted to give you what your mother...
couldn't.
If that's what you mean by "beginning", then I'm guilty.
However, Bong Sang Pil did mess up my plan.
Fortunately for me, he showed me the truth.
He helped me see the ugliness behind the mask you wear.
I guess there's nothing more to hear from you.
Let me ask you this though.
What if your mother was alive?
Would you be able to return to your old self again?
Or has Bong Sang Pil corrupted you too much?
My mom and Bong Sang Pil.
Don't use them to make me waver.
If you do, I'll even forget...
about all the good you've done for me.
- Boss. - Hey, Kwang Soo.
What were you thinking about?
Are you worried about Attorney Ha?
She made a deal with An Oh Ju to help me.
I'm making her go through too much.
- Boss. - I don't know...
whether I should be making her life so hard.
President Park, you know I always pack a punch.
All right. I'll see you later then.
Bong Sang Pil, you're here.
Are you here to thank me for saving your butt...
in court?
- Is that what you expected? - Have a seat.
What?
Does being on my home turf...
scare you?
From what I hear,
you and Cha Moon Sook are on the outs.
Bong Sang Pil,
it'll now be twice as hard for you.
So what now?
You'll know as I make my move.
Watch and see what happens to Judge Cha.
Don't miss the news from now on...
because I'm coming after you next.
Is this your way of saying that I'm a bigger fish...
than she is?
Why?
Do you like that?
Why go to extra lengths...
when you can just kill me?
Just do it right here.
What's the point in causing havoc outside?
I'd like to do that,
but I'll get my revenge with the law.
Sure, that's good.
Law is a good way to go.
Still,
it doesn't seem like you've come to your senses.
In Kiseong, there's something above...
that so-called law you believe in.
The city has its own laws.
The day you stand in Kiseong District Court...
is the day the law of Kiseong crumbles.
Don't ever think about going near Jae I.
If you do, I'll make you pay without the law.
Ma'am.
I thought Judge Cha didn't need my services today.
She's been under a lot of stress lately.
Serve her well.
Yes, ma'am.
Judge Cha, I didn't know you were here.
- You can get going now. - Yes, ma'am.
I'll get ready for your massage.
Hold on.
Bring my phone from my room.
Yes, ma'am.
Yes, sir?
That'd be great.
We should exercise together some time.
It's nothing big,
but I need you to do something.
Gwan Dong will be recognized too easily.
Meanwhile,
you're on the run.
If you don't want to get caught,
you should stay better hidden.
Yes, sir.
Judge Cha Moon Sook.
Keep an eye on her.
Yes, sir.
Boss! Boss!
What the...
Hey.
You jerk. Come here. Hey!
- How dare you! - Calm down.
I went everywhere looking for you!
He's hurt.
Geum Kang.
You idiot. What on earth happened to you?
Do you know anything about the anesthetic? Was it you?
Was it really you?
No.
When I was sleeping...
Gosh, who was he?
Oh, right. An Oh Ju's former secretary.
- His former secretary? - Yes.
Oh, the lanky guy who put a tracking device on us at the court?
Yes, that's right.
That jerk walked in with a box and left it here.
I told him to get it out of here, and he...
- And did he take you? - Yes.
That's why you ended up like this?
Yes.
I'm sorry, Attorney Bong.
Because of me...
No, it's okay.
It wasn't your fault, so take care of yourself first.
When an underling does something wrong,
I should be understanding about it and try to help him out.
What can I do?
I have an important guest.
I have to go.
My gosh, what brings you here?
I would've come to you had you called me.
Here's Judge Cha's gift for you.
Oh, my. Thank you very much.
Well, I want to hear the real reason you decided to come to court,
not what you told the reporters.
Well, I decided to...
appear in court because of you, ma'am.
What?
Could we talk privately about it?
Wait outside.
Yes, ma'am.
Just a moment, please.
Hey, is there anything you know?
Sorry? Me? Gosh, no.
Madam Nam, I know nothing.
Even if I know something, I can't tell you.
That's real helpful.
How would I know anything that you don't know?
By the way,
I heard that you're like Judge Cha's doorknob.
I guess you've done nothing but open the doors for people.
What?
What did you just say? You jerk, have you lost your mind?
I got this...
on the day of the trial...
along with a threatening phone call.
On the day of the trial?
I was told that...
what happened 18 years ago...
would be blown wide open if I didn't testify.
Well... I'm sorry I couldn't tell you...
before the trial.
Do you think this was Bong Sang Pil's doing?
Who else in Kiseong...
would do such a thing?
Judge Cha.
Everything I do...
is based on wanting to protect you...
and my loyalty to you.
You see...
Just like my bodyguard who agreed to go to jail...
for a little bit of money to help me bury the case.
This came for you, sir.
Is somebody trying to threaten me already,
knowing that I'll be running for mayor?
My gosh, who knew that these photos would be so useful?
By the way, why did you lie to her, sir?
There was no such threatening phone call.
Hey.
Did it look like she was buying it?
Well, I'm not sure.
- Gwan Dong. - Yes, sir.
I'm a politician now.
A good lie...
has to have some truth in it.
A lie that's authentic.
It must have some truth in it...
for people to believe it.
So, you're saying Judge Cha has an important meeting, right?
Yes, tomorrow 3pm at Kiseong Country Club.
- Got it, thank you. - No problem.
Oh, this is great.
This is my colleague, Attorney Bong Sang Pil.
This is the lady who works at Judge Cha's private residence.
I should get going.
Who gave you this?
A woman.
I think she knows your uncle.
You can trust him.
He and I do everything together.
Attorney Ha told me a lot about you.
I don't mean to be rude,
but may I ask you how you know my uncle?
Mr. Choi Dae Woong helped me out a lot before he passed away.
I'm helping Attorney Ha to repay his kindness.
Shouldn't you have come to me first if that had been the case?
- Attorney Bong. - You want to take down Judge Cha.
May I ask you why?
I'm very busy today.
I'll visit again another time.
Mama.
He just worries about me a lot.
I'm sorry about that.
It's okay. I should get going.
Attorney Ha Jae I.
How about we go on a date? It's been too long.
I'll take 7 of the regular one, and 2 is for here.
Oh, please add avocado on one of them.
This is going to be good.
How did you know that I like avocado?
Goodness.
What will you do later on if you're moved by something this little?
You're so sweet to me.
Can't you be just as nice to other people?
I could tell from your face that you doubt her.
I trust everything that she tells me.
Can't you try to do the same?
I know that you trust her.
But to me, your safety comes first.
Mr. Tae, call everyone now.
No team dinner for tonight.
We have to have a meeting.
Golden City's union president was killed 18 years ago, but it was...
handled as a missing person case.
Cha Moon Sook got An Oh Ju...
to bury the murder she committed.
Boss, everyone is here now.
The tables have turned, Mr. Tae.
Now, we're going to directly target Cha Moon Sook.
You mean Judge Cha?
That's right.
Attorney Bong is right.
It's an all-out war now.
The location is Kiseong Country Club.
You guys will have to go to this place and find out...
whom Judge Cha is meeting, and what their conversations are about.
That will be your job.
Okay?
Shall we use our drone?
Kwang Soo, the drone?
I miss using it.
From what I remember... It looks like this, doesn't it?
This is it, right?
Good idea, but you're not allowed to fly a drone over the golf course.
That's too bad. I wanted to use it again.
- Geum Ja. - Gosh, my heart.
Why did you call my name suddenly?
Only you can pull off this mission.
- Me? - If it's anyone else,
the cover will get blown.
You want her to go undercover?
I'd do a much better job.
You idiot, she's saying they know your face.
Gosh, you're killing me.
All right, guys. Have a look at this. This is the golf course.
Geum Ja, go undercover as a caddie and tail Cha Moon Sook, okay?
Oh, no. That was so close.
Oh, my goodness! Nice!
You're so amazing.
Judge Cha, do you take lessons?
Let's go.
You can walk.
Bye.
It's really hot.
Did you do it?
I did.
Well done. It suits us.
Today...
I want an answer.
From now on, we should play in Seoul.
Is that a yes?
Yes.
But I'll do things my way.
Your way means...
I need a cause.
"A cause"?
The seat of Chief Justice of the Supreme Court is vacant.
I need you to give me a reason.
She wants to become Chief Justice?
Today's sentence...
is against a man who stalked a 20-year-old woman for years,
sexually assaulted her and then killed her.
He then damaged her body in a very cruel manner.
- How could he? - What a monster.
No way. That's so cruel.
I'll deliver the sentence.
In the name of law and justice,
my sentence is to separate this man from society forever.
I sentence...
the defendant to the most severe punishment I possibly can.
I sentence him to death.
- Well done. - Yes!
- You're the best. - She is.
Well done.
I feel so much better now.
Good riddance.
You call him a son?
Execution?
You'll execute him?
How dare you execute my son?
Death? What makes you so special?
Who do you think you are?
Do you hope that the death sentence is carried out?
I gave the sentence after much deliberation,
but the final decision is the president's.
The candidate for chief justice failed his confirmation hearing...
and people are beginning to mention you again.
Any comments on that?
The one thing I keep in mind when judging a case is that...
within the boundaries of the law,
I must reflect how the current society works.
Dad.
The day for me to keep my promise to you...
is near.
Wait just a little longer.
I will make it happen.
How touching.
I'm used to seeing you look down at people.
You look very displeased to look up at something.
You think of the public as nothing more than puppets.
No.
I never thought of them that way.
Not losing class, even when you take off your dirty mask...
to show your true colors.
That's how scary you are.
Do you still think...
I fear the revenge of the likes of someone like you?
I guess...
there's a word that suits you better than revenge.
Judgement.
Judge Cha.
I will judge you.
Right here in Kiseong.
[VIU Ver] tvN E11 Lawless Lawyer "New Alliances" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-
Is that Secretary Kim?
Judge Cha met who at the country club?
- You disapproved until now... - Just a moment.
because of the candidates' lack of qualifications.
What do you think about Judge Cha Moon Sook?
Don't you think the chief justice...
should be someone who is fair and just?
Judge Cha is...
upright and spent her whole life upholding the law.
I believe she has proven herself already.
(Cha Moon Sook is verified)
She will correct the government's twisted sense of justice.
Madam Nam.
What did Kiseong's superstar call me for?
Let's have a chat.
Come over to my office.
I'll send a car.
It's not that I lack a ride, I lack the heart to visit.
Bye.
I want to talk about Prosecutor Kang.
- What? - You'd better get here quick.
Hey, you, An Oh Ju. Hey!
(Kiseong City Hall)
If the people want me to take office,
I would wish to live up to their demands.
Her goal must've been to become chief justice.
She'd refused the seat a few times before.
Why say yes now?
The man Judge Cha played golf with.
Is him, Chairman Jo Young Joon.
He is Minseng Party's current leader.
Do you get it?
Judge Cha's goal...
reaches much further than we imagined.
Cha Moon Sook and An Oh Ju have parted ways already.
We must use that.
It's good to see you again.
Thanks so much with your help with the bank president.
I should thank you for giving me a scoop.
What is it this time?
You called me out here...
which means it's much bigger than last time.
Is this...
Judge Cha Moon Sook?
Yes, it is.
The very person who will most likely become chief justice.
No reporter in Kiseong will print these photos.
Even outside of Kiseong.
That's why we came to you, Reporter Yu.
Do you think I'm that brave?
Rather than bravery...
Isn't it more like a sense of duty?
This is...
nothing at all like the bank president deal.
I have to risk my career and life on this.
You say that,
but you can't take your eyes off the photos.
Speak up.
Why would you mention my daughter?
Look here.
I know that Prosecutor Kang...
means more to you than anyone in the world.
You're taking too long.
Judge Cha.
When she becomes chief justice and leaves Kiseong,
who do you think will look after your daughter then?
What does that have to do with you?
Come on now.
You should really...
try to think harder.
Come over here. Come on.
When Judge Cha...
leaves Kiseong,
who do you think will be left in charge...
of the city?
Kiseong will become my city, my nest.
"Your nest"?
Judge Cha.
Why come when I didn't call for you?
Get out.
Will you really become chief justice?
What are you doing?
What will become of Prosecutor Kang then?
Will you leave Kiseong?
Judge Cha.
Don't try to find out what I'm planning.
Darn it.
We're done.
Well done, Ms. Kim.
I can't believe you're my daughter.
I'm dead busy.
Must we do this?
Sit down over there for a bit.
I think a huge storm is coming.
What?
You know,
I will make you someone...
who is revered until the moment you die.
That is the only goal of my life.
Mom, I'm doing pretty well right now, thanks to you.
Yes, yes.
Try this.
You're silly.
Keep an eye on what Judge Cha does.
You need to.
What will happen to Judge Cha and Mayor An?
That's what's important.
Who knows which cloud will turn black?
Will I get drenched or be sheltered by an umbrella?
I should side with the one with an umbrella.
Right?
Welcome.
Boss, how did it go with the reporter?
We will get our article.
But, an 18-year-old photo surfacing won't bring Judge Cha down.
Won't the photos seal the deal?
Judge Cha will react in her own way.
We should be prepared for that.
Well, we're always ready in mind and body...
to fight!
Right?
- Right! - Right!
Judge Cha's big picture. I'm very impressed.
I doubted it even during the interview,
but you made the announcement.
Kiseong is too small for Judge Cha.
She should go national.
- Let's go. - Let's go.
Your recent death sentence was very appropriate.
It's all about timing.
I always sentence criminals according to...
my belief system.
It's not about timing.
She accepted the chief justice position...
and sentenced a man to death.
You are so impressive.
Congratulations.
You're quiet, Madam Nam.
I don't see Mayor An.
Madam Nam.
Why would you mention him in my presence?
I apologize, Judge Cha.
Since when did you care so much for Mayor An?
My gosh.
I don't care for him.
I'm leaving.
Chief Prosecutor Jang.
Yes, ma'am?
Come to my office one day.
There's someone you should meet.
Yes, ma'am.
Goodnight.
I will escort you home.
No thanks.
- Let's drink. - Okay.
- That's my phone. - Why are you so busy?
Hello there.
It's been a while.
So, did you think about it?
My daughter.
Will you really look after her?
She is all I care about.
I'm doing this because I know that.
Cha Moon Sook will never look after your daughter.
But you know,
An Oh Ju never turns his back on his own.
Once I take someone in,
I take responsibility for whatever that person does.
I guess so.
TVG obtained photos that reveal what Kiseong's judge,
Cha Moon Sook, did 18 years ago.
These photos from an anonymous source...
seem to show Han Cheol Kyu,
the union president of Golden City who disappeared 18 years ago.
Everyone is reeling with shock.
Do you think this is evidence?
You can't even see any faces.
Then why did you tear it?
There's a witness as well.
You did it.
I know nothing.
Is it you in the car in the photo?
Are you involved in his disappearance 18 years ago?
Judge, are you inside?
- Judge! - Talk to us!
An Oh Ju.
How dare you?
Judge, are you inside?
- Judge! - Talk to us!
- Speak to us. - Judge.
Judge!
She won't come outside.
If she can't explain this,
there's no way she'll survive the hearing.
Her plan to become chief justice just took a direct hit.
Who's the other person that was blurred out?
That means someone else was there.
(Mayor of Kiseong, An Oh Ju)
What will happen to Judge Cha?
Keep an eye on the news.
Because you will be next.
Bong Sang Pil. You little rascal.
With one bullet you're trying to take two hares?
- Judge, any comments? - Judge.
What's your statement?
Any comments?
I have to be in court.
I will explain my official position...
in a future press conference.
- Judge, please. - Judge.
Her whole life is calculated, down to every breath.
She'll have to take off that mask soon.
Poor Judge Cha.
(Judge Cha Remains Silent, Who's the Other Man?)
(Daeho Stationary)
- Nice. - This is great.
- Well done. - Thanks.
Attack enemies with enemies.
- With enemies! - With enemies!
I had no idea that was a strategy.
You're the best.
I knew nothing about this world.
- Really? - Really.
- Don't you feel great? - I know I do.
What kind of a look do you think they have on their faces?
My guess is...
Cha Moon Sook would want to kill An Oh Ju,
and An Oh Ju would want to kill me.
We succeeded anyway.
All right then. Let's drink a toast.
Let's do that.
All right.
Lawless Law Firm always...
- Push forward! - Push forward!
Let's drink.
It's so cool.
This is amazing.
Attorney Bong Sang Pil.
If you don't mind, can I talk to you for a moment?
Where's Attorney Ha Jae I?
I came alone today.
Please get in the car.
The picture of Cha Moon Sook was very helpful.
Thank you.
Okay.
But I won't let you help me anymore.
I don't trust anyone unless I'm sure of their identity.
Especially people around Cha Moon Sook.
There's one thing I'm worried about.
It's that Jae I trusts you.
That's why I came to see you.
Please...
don't meet Jae I anymore.
Please.
Attorney Bong Sang Pil.
Thank you.
For having protected my daughter.
Hurry.
Now.
Go.
Just go!
Attorney Bong Sang Pil.
Thank you.
For having protected my daughter.
Hurry.
Now.
Go.
Just go!
What did you just say?
Huh?
What did you say?
Jae I...
Jae I is...
your daughter?
I know.
It's been a very long time.
How can I know you're not lying?
How can I trust you?
How do you think I met Choi Dae Woong?
How do you think I gave Jae I Cha Moon Sook's picture?
Are you really...
Jae I's mother?
18 years ago,
you saved me.
Are you really her?
You've grown up so well.
You look a lot like your mother.
(Cha Moon Sook)
(An Oh Ju)
Who on earth sent this?
I knew...
Jae I and my husband...
would be in danger if I come back to Kiseong.
So I stayed in Thailand.
We shouldn't be here. We should...
Please keep quiet about this for a while.
I'll tell her myself.
I just need more time.
Attorney Bong.
Can you do me a favor?
Yes.
You've been able to protect Jae I so far.
But she can't be safe forever like this.
As long as she's with you...
It might sound disappointing,
but I'm telling you this as her mother.
I want Jae I to stay out of this.
If you really love my daughter,
please let her go.
I don't want to lose her ever again.
I know I shouldn't be asking such a thing.
But...
But this is too dangerous.
I'm sorry.
Sang Pil.
Scorpion.
Have you just been released?
It's been a few days.
Let's go to my office.
No. I just wanted to see your face.
It must've been hard in there.
By the way,
when were you sent to the jail in Kiseong?
Choi Dae Woong made me go there.
He didn't give a reason though.
Then...
are you going back to Seoul?
I took over a business.
I'll stay in Kiseong.
In Kiseong?
I should get going. Call me if you need help.
Okay.
Man Bae said you were the culprit.
Do you want to know why he's so sure...
that I was the culprit?
Yes.
I'm curious about that, too.
Once I find the answer,
I'll get back to you.
("What's the truth behind the picture taken 18 years ago?")
(A picture caused quite a stir.)
(Judge Cha Moon Sook)
Judge Cha.
Explain the suspicions about the picture...
or get rid of it.
Otherwise,
I'll forget about my offer.
You're changing your ground just because of a picture?
The picture has nothing to do with me.
You abandoned my father just like this, right?
The other day,
I told you politics is a war fought with a sword.
Why do you think they fight with a sword?
To cut things out...
when needed.
I'll give you one day.
(Judge Cha Moon Sook)
(Kiseong District Court)
But she can't be safe forever like this.
As long as she's with you...
Attorney Bong.
Did you make a deal...
with An Oh Ju for me?
I couldn't let you stay in prison even for one more day.
(Lawless Law Firm)
Did you stay up all night?
Yes. You're here early.
Jae I.
Head out with me.
There's somewhere we should go.
Right now?
Yes.
I've always wanted to learn, so this is great.
Today, I'll teach you a few basic moves.
I pack some mean punches too. Don't underestimate me.
You may get injured, so take this seriously.
Now focus.
I don't want to lose her again.
If you really love my daughter,
you'll let her go.
This isn't easy.
I'll teach you whenever I have time...
so that you can...
easily defend yourself.
Grab on tight.
Maintain your balance.
Balance...
One step at a time.
Tighter.
Judge, we believe in you.
Judge, we're on your side!
(We Believe in Judge Cha!)
- We believe in you. - Judge Cha!
Please say a few words!
Judge, please comment.
First,
I sincerely apologize for worrying...
everyone in the nation who has showed me...
their support.
This photo is germane to the disappearance...
of Golden City's union president 18 years ago.
Even until recently,
this anonymously sent photo...
was used to blackmail me.
- What? - What on earth?
I kept it to myself, hidden, thinking that it was...
only an attempt to obstruct the Golden City project.
However,
I now realize that the burden shouldn't all be mine.
I, Cha Moon Sook,
has nothing to do with the disappearance...
of the Golden City union president.
That I promise you.
- Judge! - Of course!
(We Believe in Judge Cha!)
- Cha Moon Sook! - Cha Moon Sook!
What did you mean by helping me so that...
I can take care of myself?
What is it?
Sang Pil.
What do you mean?
Get up.
Boss, Attorney Ha,
Judge Cha held an urgent press conference.
I, Cha Moon Sook,
will not succumb to maligning forces.
I tell you now that...
I'll be officially accepting...
the candidacy of chief justice of the Supreme Court.
Congratulations!
Judge Cha, we believe in you!
Go, Judge Cha!
(We Believe in Judge Cha!)
All doubts and suspicions will be proven wrong...
at the confirmation hearing.
For this country's judicial justice,
- I, Cha Moon Sook... - You!
How dare you sentence my son to death?
Who do you think you are?
Get him!
Someone, call the paramedics!
Judge Cha.
My gosh, Judge Cha!
What a sight.
(Lawless Lawyer)
Judge Cha ordered the hit on herself?
I don't want him to be punished.
She's overcoming a crisis with a crisis.
This mission is just for us.
We'll hurt them just like they hurt my uncle.
The Golden City project has been put off.
Did you know that she was my mom?
Did you not tell me so that you could use her?
I can't trust you anymore.
In order to eliminate him, she needed my thirst for revenge.
Cha Moon Sook,
she chose me.
